Varioptic, a business unit of Parrot, has added a C-Mount objective to its Caspian family of auto focus lens modules. With its 16mm effective focal length and compatible with up to 2/3 inch sensors, the Caspian C-39N0-16 is designed to bring liquid lens performance to standard machine vision cameras, automated inspection, barcode reading, biometrics and medical imaging.
Its built-in electronics accepts I²C, RS232, SPI and analogue inputs from 5 to 24V power supply. The integrated Arctic 39N0 liquid lens enables focus from 10cm to infinity.
The lens can now be ordered from Varioptic and its distributors, as well as a Caspian C evaluation and development kit including a Caspian C-39N0-16 objective, a USB adaptor, driving software and libraries.
