Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to review the inter-relationships between some critical issues in lens design and the integration of electro-optical systems. It is meant to be of use to the systems engineer responsible for integrating the various disciplines (e.g. optical, thermal, etc.) that make up a full system. It is assumed that the reader has some optical knowledge but is not expert in lens design. The intent is to describe the function of the optical designer and the contribution of optical design programs, to refresh the reader's memory of some important optical issues and relationships, and highlight others that may not be as well known. Representative references are included which the reader can consult to get more detailed information.
