US Patent 11927723 Optical system, image pickup apparatus, in-vehicle system, and moving apparatus

An optical system consists of a front lens unit having a positive or negative refractive power, a diaphragm, and a rear lens unit having a positive refractive power, which are arranged in this order from an object side to an image side. The front lens unit includes an aspherical lens that has a positive refractive power on an optical axis, and is disposed closest to an object. The aspherical lens has an aspherical surface on the object side in which an off-axis radius of curvature is larger than an on-axis radius of curvature. A predetermined condition is satisfied.
