Apple app sorts lens configurations

Edmund Optics has developed a free iPhone/iTouch App to you select the appropriate lens for your vision integration projects. The Lens Selector iPhone application is a tool to make sure you have the correct imaging lens for your machine vision application. Only three user-defined inputs - Field of View, Working Distance, and Sensor Size - are required to provide the closest product matches from EO's line of TECHSPEC® imaging lenses. The Edmund Optics Lens Selector takes the three user defined inputs (FOV, working distance and sensor size) and sorts from Edmund’s TECHSPEC imaging lenses, including fixed focal length and telecentric lenses, to provide the best match. Even if a lens does not match the user's requirements, the application suggests the closest lens, which is typically within several millimeters of either the FOV or working distance, and most users can adjust their setup to accommodate for this discrepancy. Once the results are displayed, the user has the option of selecting the lens with the closest performance based on either the FOV or the working distance. For more information, click HERE.
