What kinds of navigational instruments did Renissance explorers use?

Renaissance explorers used several key navigational instruments, including the astrolabe, which helped determine latitude by measuring the angle of celestial bodies above the horizon. The compass, essential for orienting direction, became widely used during this period. Additionally, the quadrant and later the sextant enabled more precise measurements of celestial positions. These tools significantly improved navigation, allowing explorers to venture further into uncharted waters.

What instruments make use of lenses?

We find that imaging equipment that makes tiny things appear big (a microscope) or really far away things appear close (a telescope) uses lenses. There are also new tools that allow looking "into" and "around" things by virtue of fiber optics, and they employ lenses. Industry and medicine have a wide variety of 'scopes to do all kinds of stuff with. Still and moving picture technology still relies on lenses. There are a few more things, lke a simple looking glass, that are or make use of lenses. Oh, and don't forget corrective optics so people can see better. Glasses or contacts are lenses.
