Abstract
With the development of deep-sea lighting technology, it is necessary to design lighting systems to solve the problems of
rapid light attenuation for different lighting purposes. This paper presents a compact optical system which combines a central
lens and a surrounding lens through closely connected free-form surface to achieve two modes of lighting, long distance and
wide-angle range. In the design example, an optical system of 3×3 square LED array is constructed with the combined
lenses, which has long-distance lighting 100 m in ocean water and 120 ° large lighting angle simultaneously. The lighting
system with small volume, compact structure and multiple functions can be realized and adapted to submarine lighting
applications.
Keywords
