Difference between Augustin-Jean Fresnel and Fresnel Imager

Augustin-Jean Fresnel vs. Fresnel Imager

Augustin-Jean Fresnel (10 May 178814 July 1827) was a French civil engineer and physicist whose research in optics led to the almost unanimous acceptance of the wave theory of light, excluding any remnant of Newton's corpuscular theory, from the late 1830s until the end of the 19th century. --> A Fresnel imager is a proposed ultra-lightweight design for a space telescope that uses a Fresnel array as primary optics instead of a typical lens.

Similarities between Augustin-Jean Fresnel and Fresnel Imager

Augustin-Jean Fresnel and Fresnel Imager have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Diffraction, Fresnel lens, Fresnel number, Telescope, Zone plate.

Diffraction

--> Diffraction refers to various phenomena that occur when a wave encounters an obstacle or a slit.
