| Half field angle | θ1 | θ2 |
| Focal length | f1 | f2 |
| Image height | y1 | y2 |
| Wave band | Band 1 | Band 2 |
Wherein the image height y1、y2The value of (f) is related to the display pixel and pixel size of the imaging surface of the optical system, and the focal length f1、f2The value of (b) is related to the number of lenses, the lens surface shape, the lens material and the pitch of each lens included in the optical system, the first sub-optical system and the second sub-optical system can be optically designed, and the number of lenses, the lens surface shape, the lens material, the pitch of each lens and the display pixel and the image of the image plane included in each sub-optical system are setElement size, etc. such that the image height y imaged by the first sub-optical system1And focal length f1And the image height y imaged by the second sub-optical system2And focal length f2The ratio of (a) to (b) satisfies the corresponding linear relationship.
