I got something to take care off ATM and will do some later this day.
I was going to make a thread to compile all attempts, like some links to Boris and his YouTube, the Fresnel attempts by Ultrapurple and others as a knowledge base. I plan to buy lenses and print the mounting solution on my own, similar to what Boris achieved. From what I got from TPL, I can say that their adapter has an opening for the Lepton lens, but not for my phone and therefore would result in large vignette and loss of pixels. I was about to do some test to confirm the fov of the sensor and do measurements with callipers on my own. I suspect it's similar to what is used in the flir one. I reached out to CAT, their service partner and Bullit but I got no information whatsoever on the lens used to cover the Lepton. The Lepton I have is integrated in my phone and I won't be taking it apart. Hey Bill, Thanks for starting this topic up again. I expect you so get poor sensitivity and high magnification - but once you have demonstrated that it works you can start optimising different bits. Then start playing with lenses and the position of the Lepton to see if you can get anything resembling an image. Set it up with its original eyepiece so you can be certain it's pointing accurately.
I suggest using a hot target such as a soldering iron a few tens of metres from the telescope. I use a simple astronomical telescope like this, except I do not need the extra lens for my setup. You may be able to use it to form the light so it can be seen by the presumably fixed-focus Lepton. Try using a reflector telescope and putting a germanium or ZnSe lens in place of the eyepiece. That really only leaves you the option of making a telescope arrangement - which can work well. I assume it's not possible to remove the lens assembly. Quote from: Ultrapurple on October 20, 2017, 07:56:58 pm I suggest you consider starting a new topic (something like 'Narrowing Lepron FOV'), but I am also happy to continue the discussion here if you prefer.
