The Opto-Engineering TCEL150 delivers the advantages of a telecentric lens, with the flexibility of a liquid lens.
The Opto Engineering TCEL series combine telecentric optics with an Optotune liquid lens. This combination greatly increases the effective depth of field. You can use free software to manually adjust the focus as needed, making an object feature clear and sharp. Or, deploy focus stacking software (sold separately) to build a composite image with all features in focus.
Small changes in focus take just a few milliseconds. There are no motors or complicated gear mechanisms to wear out.
The Optotune liquid lens controller (sold separately) features a USB interface. A serial protocol enables communication with most software development tools.
Due to the integrated liquid lens, magnification varies with the working distance.
