摘要
Structure characters of a dual-channel helmet mounted display (DCHMD) optical system was analyzed. Based on the discussion of the requirements of DCHMD in application, the system's technical specifications were presented. The off-axis aberration was analyzed and corrected by proper freeform surface at the right place of the optical system. A DCHMD optical system was developed with technical specifications: 40° × 30° field of view, 15mm exit pupil diameter, 26.4 mm effective focal length, 25 mm eye relief distance, wavelength range 540~560nm, back focal length more than 3 mm and modulation transfer function (MTF) higher than 0.1 at the frequency of 0.88 lp/mrad. This system has a compact size (70 mm × 122 mm) and a decent center of gravity, and could be embedded in the helmets.
