Edmund Optics^®

Become familiarized with the key components of an imaging lens assembly and how they function.

There are numerous mount types for connecting an imaging lens to a camera. Depending on the application, some mounts are more useful than others.

Learn how to insert a liquid lens into a modular TECHSPEC Liquid Lens Cx Series Fixed Focal Length Lens Assembly from Edmund Optics.

Image Quality of a Telecentric with the Flexibility of a Liquid Lens

Liquid lenses can be used to maximize imaging system flexibility across a wide variety of applications requiring rapid focusing.

TECHSPEC® Liquid Lens M12 Imaging Lenses from Edmund Optics combine a high-resolution with the electronic auto-focus of an integrated liquid lens

Telecentric Lenses can grow quite large and heavy with small magnifications, as such magnifications require large front optics. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Time to Replace Spherical Elements with Aspheric Lenses

To decide what imaging lens is right for a system, it is important to know the parameters of the imaging system used. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

The modulation transfer function of a lens varies depending on working distance, sensor size, f/#, and wavelength. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Explore the differences in the performance of imaging lenses by directly comparing the associated modulation transfer function (MTF) curves.

Edmund Optics® manufactures thousands of precision aspheric lenses per month in our asphere manufacturing cell that operates 24 hours a day.

Aspherized Achromatic Lenses, exclusive to Edmund Optics, are doublet lenses consisting of two cemented optical elements that are matched for their color-correction ability and small RMS spot size.

Imaging lens assemblies are vital components for a wide range of cutting edge applications including machine vision, biomedical instruments, factory automation, and robotics.

Although a common misconception, individual optical lenses do not always form an image when the object plane is placed a focal length away from the lens.

No imaging lens is the ideal choice for every type of imaging sensor, as multiple tradeoffs must be weighed and prioritized for every application.

Do you have multiple projects that involve the use of a lens? Find out about different lenses that can be adapted for multiple purposes at Edmund Optics.

Collimated light occurs when light rays travel parallel to each other.

Liquid lenses have many features, are small in size, and adjust focus quickly to adapt to objects located at various working distances. Learn more at Edmund Optics.
