A black box lens provides all the necessary information to evaluate an optical system without details about the optical design proper. For this reason, Zemax’s OpticStudio offers what is called a “Black Box Lens”. The information found on a traditional datasheet is generally not enough for correct optical design because it does not provide aberration analysis and is therefore not suitable to evaluate image formation. When multiple component vendors ( ie electronics, mechanical, optical) are involved, data needs to be shared without revealing key intellectual property. When integrating off the shelf lenses into optical systems, it is essential to have full information about how a lens will perform with other elements in the system.
