Class Information
Number: 250/201.8
Name: Radiant energy > Photocells; circuits and apparatus > Photocell controls its own optical systems > Automatic focus control > Based on image shift
Description: Subject matter in which the focusing is based on coincidence of two images of the same object moved in the same plane or of the displacement or distance between different images of the same object in the same plane, e.g., the photodetector plane.
