Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The design of illuminating systems, as contrasted to imaging systems, presents novel problems. A successful first approach to the solution of these problems is presented with emphasis on some of the more fundamental problems and their solution. Methods for handling such systems and the unusual surfaces encountered are described, and performance criteria suitable for system optimization with nonlinear programming algorithms are discussed.
