Applications & Target Devices
This 10MP 245° fisheye lens is meticulously crafted for extreme, wide-area surveillance and intelligent robotic perception where multi-camera setups are impractical. Its massive Φ4.4mm image circle fits perfectly onto high-performance 1/2.3-inch format sensors, delivering an uncropped hemispherical view. The integrated 8G all-glass structure combined with an IR cut filter guarantees sharp contrast and zero thermal focus drift when operating under direct sunlight or harsh, fluctuating outdoor conditions. By bringing F-Theta mapping distortion below -1.6%, it allows edge algorithms to perform highly efficient algorithmic de-warping, making it invaluable for advanced spatial mapping, situational awareness, and precision agricultural drone telemetry.
Compatible Device List:
- Drone & UAV Systems: Optimized for 360-degree situational awareness payloads, autonomous drone navigation, and high-altitude mapping cameras.
- Automotive & Transit: Perfectly suited for commercial fleet 360° bird’s-eye view monitoring, cabin interior security, and driver monitoring systems (DMS).
- Panoramic CCTV Cameras: Ideal for ceiling-mounted dome cameras, city-wide intersections, and open-space warehouse surveillance cameras requiring full single-sensor coverage.
- Advanced IoT & VR Systems: Fits 1/2.3″ 10MP CMOS sensors (such as Sony IMX series) deployed in virtual reality capture rigs, smart city infrastructure, and agricultural robotic vision platforms.
Designed for professional 360° panoramic surveillance, UAV aerial mapping, and automotive surround-view applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is an F-Theta lens, and why is its <-1.6% distortion rating important?
A: An F-Theta lens is designed so that the image height is directly proportional to the real-world view angle. Having an F-Theta distortion under -1.6% ensures that pixels are evenly distributed across the 245° view, making it incredibly fast and accurate for software algorithms to flatten or stitch the image without losing resolution.
Q: Can this lens cover a full 1/2.3″ sensor without cropping?
A: This lens produces a Φ4.4mm image circle. On a standard 1/2.3″ sensor, it will project a circular fisheye image (black corners on the edges), capturing the complete 245° hemispherical view within that circle.
Q: What are the benefits of the 8G+IR cut optical construction?
A: The 8 Glass (8G) design provides exceptional clarity, better light gathering at F2.8, and zero warping over time compared to plastic alternatives. The built-in IR cut filter stops infrared light contamination, giving you accurate color rendering during daylight conditions.
Q: Is this fixed focal lens weather-sealed for outdoor applications?
A: While the all-glass construction stands up extremely well to heat and cold, the M12x0.5 thread interface itself requires proper sealing or O-rings within your camera housing to achieve IP67/IP68 weatherproofing.
Q: What is the significance of the 0.1m M.O.D. for this fisheye lens?
A: The Minimum Object Distance (M.O.D.) of 0.1 meters (10cm) means the lens can maintain perfect 10MP sharpness even if an object comes extremely close to the glass front, which is ideal for close-range robotic navigation and obstacle avoidance.
Q: Do you offer a version without the IR cut filter for night vision use?
A: Yes. We provide OEM/ODM customization services. For low-light or specialized industrial operations, we can supply this lens with an AR coating or specific dual-band IR filters (850nm/940nm) upon request.
