Abstract
A polyhedron lens architecture is disposed in a virtual sphere. The virtual sphere has a horizontal plane, an upper hemisphere above the horizontal plane and a lower hemisphere below the horizontal plane. The polyhedron lens architecture has an upper half part above the horizontal plane, and a lower half part below the horizontal plane. The polyhedron lens architecture includes: multiple bases, which are respectively disposed on the upper half part and the lower half part; and multiple lenses respectively disposed on surfaces of the bases. Optical axes of the lenses intersect at a central point, which is located at the horizontal plane and is a structural center of the polyhedron lens architecture.
