How it works
Adlens lenses change power with the turn of a dial. The operating
principle of the patented liquid lens technology is simple. The lens
is a hollow chamber with a thin, clear, strong plastic sheet stretched
across inside. The variable lens power comes from a clear, high
refractive index fluid. The fluid is pumped into (or out of) the chamber
between the plastic-like sheet and the lens. As the amount of oil
increases, it pushes on the plastic sheet, changing its curvature. The
more it curves, the more the lens power increases. When the fluid is
pumped back out, the lens curvature flattens, reducing the power.
The base, hard lens, has a negative power, meaning that with little
or no oil, objects are demagnified.
