Understanding Liquid Lens Technology

Liquid lenses can be used to maximize imaging system flexibility across a wide variety of applications requiring rapid focusing. By integrating a liquid lens, the imaging system can change the plane of focus in mil­liseconds in order to provide sharp images, regardless of the object’s distance from the camera.

Liquid lenses can be used to maximize imaging system flexibility across a wide variety of applications requiring rapid focusing. By integrating a liquid lens, the imaging system can change the plane of focus in mil­liseconds in order to provide sharp images, regardless of the object’s distance from the camera. This makes integrating liquid lenses an ideal choice for applications that require focusing at multiple distances where the objects under inspection are different sizes or at different distances away from the lens such as barcode reading, package sorting, security, and rapid automation.
