Axis in general means an imaginary line about which a body rotates.
Axis in general means an imaginary line about which a body rotates.Axis in Mathematics means a fixed reference line for the measurement of coordinates.
In general, an Axis is defined as an imaginary line about which an object rotates..
An Optical Axis is an imaginary line along which there is some degree of rotational symmetry in an optical system such as a camera lens or microscope.
The optical axis is an imaginary line that defines the path along which light propagates through the system, up to first approximation. For a system composed of simple lenses and mirrors, the axis passes through the center of curvature of each surface, and coincides with the axis of rotational symmetry. The optical axis is often coincident with the system's mechanical axis, but not always, as in the case of off-axis optical systems.
For an optical fiber, the optical axis is along the center of the fiber core, and is also known as the fiber axis...
