Varioptic, a Business Unit of Parrot SA, is pleased to announce a new addition to its Caspian family of Auto Focus lens modules. After the successful introduction of Caspian M12-316-9.6 last year, Varioptic is now introducing Caspian M12-316-7.5, based on an Arctic 316 liquid lens and a Sunex DSL944 fix-focus lens.

It is compatible with M12x0.5 mounts (S-Mount) and off-the-shelf FPC connectors. With a 7.5 mm focal length and compatibility with up to 1/2.5” sensors, this module is the perfect choice for highly demanding applications where speed of focus and industrial-grade robustness are a must, such as machine vision, biometrics, barcode reading and medical imaging. An optional IR-cut filter is available.

The Caspian M12-316-7.5 will be available soon from Varioptic and its distributors, as well as a Caspian Development Kit including 2 Caspian modules, a power supply with a choice of driver ICs, a connection cable, driving software and libraries, plus an extensive set of documentation.

Based on Varioptic's breakthrough electrowetting technology and dedicated to imaging system integrators, Caspian is a family of Auto Focus Lens Modules that combine a fix objective lens, a Varioptic liquid lens and a flex cable in a single lens barrel. Caspian modules are designed according to standard mounts in order to enable fast and easy integration into most camera boards.
