Bi-telecentric lenses are designed to produce images with a flat field of view, which means that the magnification of the image is the same at all points across the field. This makes them ideal for applications such as microscopy, machine vision, and robotics.

What is a Bi-Telecentric Lens?

A bi-telecentric lens is a type of lens that produces a flat field of view. This means that the magnification of the image is the same at all points across the field, regardless of the distance from the lens. This is in contrast to a conventional lens, which produces a curved field of view.

Advantages of Bi-Telecentric Lenses

There are a number of advantages to using bi-telecentric lenses, including:

Flat field of view: Bi-telecentric lenses produce a flat field of view, which means that the magnification of the image is the same at all points across the field. This is ideal for applications where a distortion-free image is required.

High magnification: Bi-telecentric lenses can achieve high magnifications, making them ideal for applications where a close-up view of an object is required.

Long working distance: Bi-telecentric lenses have a long working distance, which means that the object can be placed far away from the lens. This is ideal for applications where the object is large or fragile.

Compact size: Bi-telecentric lenses are relatively compact, making them ideal for applications where space is limited.

Applications of Bi-Telecentric Lenses

Bi-telecentric lenses are used in a variety of applications, including:

Microscopy: Bi-telecentric lenses are used in microscopy to produce high-quality images of small objects.

Machine vision: Bi-telecentric lenses are used in machine vision to inspect products for defects.

Robotics: Bi-telecentric lenses are used in robotics to guide robots and to track objects.

How to Choose the Right Bi-Telecentric Lens

When choosing a bi-telecentric lens, there are a few factors to consider, including:

Magnification: The magnification of the lens will determine how close the object needs to be to the lens in order to be in focus.

Working distance: The working distance of the lens will determine how far away the object can be placed from the lens.

Field of view: The field of view of the lens will determine how much of the object can be seen in the image.
