Theia Technology’s Mark Peterson outlined the benefits of rectilinear lenses at AIA’s vision solutions conference. Greg Blackman reports
Kowa has developed a lens series optimised for 5 megapixel cameras with a chip size of 2/3-inch and a pixel size of 3.45μm
Kowa has released a new lens series for 12MP cameras with a 1.1" chip size and a pixel size of 3.45µm
Kowa has extended its vibration-resistant lens series for cameras with up to 2/3-inch chip size by the focal length of 5mm
Kowa has added a rugged 1-inch lens series to its portfolio. The new HC-V Series 4 megapixel lens series allows measurements without pixel deviation even in high vibration and shock environments
Kowa has introduced its first P-Iris controlled machine vision lens. The model LM16JCMM-IR is designed for 2/3-inch 5 Megapixel sensors
