Fresnel lenses come in different sizes and can be used in a variety of applications. Read more about the theory, manufacturing, and application use at Edmund Optics.

Fresnel lenses are composed of a series of concentric grooves etched into one side of a sheet of plastic. Fresnel lenses are unlike typical spherical or aspherical optical lenses.

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

M12 or S-Mount lenses are a type of compact imaging lens used in space-constrained applications.

Edmund Optics® manufactures several different types of ruggedized imaging lens assemblies.

What is an aspheric lens? In what applications are aspheric lenses used?

Optotune Focus-Tunable lenses feature a liquid polymer substrate with continuous focusability.

Fixed focal length, zoom, and macro lenses are all variable magnification lenses. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Cinema lenses designed to create content tailored for online streaming utilize aspheres to shoot with a shallow depth of field while maintaining quality.

Telecentric lenses eliminate perspective and measurement error, and are ideal for measurement and gauging applications.

Imaging lens performance can be enhanced with the use of liquid lenses. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Large field of view telecentric imaging lenses allow for reduction of measurement and inspection time. Learn more about large FOV lenses at Edmund Optics.

The lenses used for high-resolution unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have unique requirements beyond those of standard imaging lenses.
