The theory developed in the first part of this study [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A38, 1884 (2021)JOAOD60740-323210.1364/JOSAA.435621] is extended to an investigation of the ruled surface produced by a gimbaled mirror and its applications to formulate a new criterion that uses the base curve of the ruled surface as a reference scale to divide the scan field into near and far zones and to investigate ruled surfaces produced by the 1D mirror-scanning systems, such as the monogon, the polygon, and the galvanometric scanners as the special cases of that produced by a gimbaled mirror. Results obtained from the two applications described above lead to placing the ruled surface produced by scanners of different architectures on a platform and then bridging them up by the ruled surfaces they produced for a performance comparison. Although all these scanners may have very different scanning geometries and different application areas, there is one thing making them comparable: the key parameters of the ruled surfaces they produced. As an example, we compare the ray deviation power of a gimbaled mirror with that achievable by a dual galvo scanner for scanning by way of the key parameters of the ruled surfaces they produced.
本研究的第一部分提出的理论[J. Opt. Soc. Am. A38, 1884 (2021)JOAOD60740-323210.1364/JOSAA.435621]被扩展到研究由万向架反射镜产生的规则曲面及其应用，以制定一个新的准则，该准则使用规则曲面的基曲线作为参考尺度，将扫描场分为近场和远场，并研究由一维反射镜扫描系统产生的规则曲面，如单棱镜、多棱镜和振镜作为由万向架反射镜产生的规则曲面的特例。上述两个应用的结果导致将不同结构的扫描仪产生的规则曲面放置在一个平台上，然后用它们产生的规则曲面将它们连接起来，以进行性能比较。虽然所有这些扫描仪可能具有非常不同的扫描几何形状和不同的应用领域，但有一个因素使它们具有可比性：它们产生的规则曲面的关键参数。例如，我们比较了万向架反射镜的射线偏差功率和双振镜扫描仪的射线偏差功率，方法是通过它们产生的规则曲面的关键参数。
