1.7mm Φ10 IP69K Automotive Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

This 1.7mm 202° fisheye lens is designed for imaging systems where maximizing scene coverage is more important than maintaining conventional rectilinear geometry. Its 202° horizontal and diagonal field of view enables a single camera to observe an exceptionally large surrounding area, reducing blind zones in panoramic imaging configurations.

The lens is particularly suited to rugged automotive camera modules, where a compact optical assembly must withstand water, dust, cleaning processes, and harsh outdoor conditions. The IP69K construction makes it appropriate for exposed camera locations that may encounter high-pressure water jets, road contamination, or demanding environmental conditions.

Within automotive‑vision applications, the ultra‑wide FOV supports surround‑view, panoramic observation, parking‑area monitoring, blind‑zone visualization, and other camera systems that demand extensive nearby‑scene coverage. The 1.7mm EFL and 0.2m M.O.D. are especially relevant where the camera needs to observe objects or obstacles located close to the vehicle.

The same optical characteristics can also be applied to smart traffic and panoramic security equipment, where a single camera needs to cover a broad intersection, vehicle approach area, entrance zone, or other large surrounding scene.

Optical Selection Considerations

The defining characteristic of this lens is its 202° field of view. Unlike conventional wide-angle lenses designed to maintain relatively natural perspective geometry, this lens uses an extreme fisheye configuration to capture an exceptionally large surrounding scene.

The specified F-θ distortion of < -3.9% should be interpreted differently from conventional TV distortion. F-θ optical systems intentionally use a specialized image-mapping relationship between angle and image height, making them suitable for applications such as panoramic imaging, scanning, and wide-field vision.

The 1/2.4″ image format and 3MP resolution are matched with the Sony ISX031-based FOV specification provided for this lens. When integrating the lens into a camera module, the actual sensor active area should be checked against the specified image circle and FOV requirements.

The IP69K construction is another key differentiator. It allows the lens to be considered for demanding outdoor and automotive environments where ordinary miniature optics may not provide sufficient environmental protection.

Fisheye Imaging & Field-of-View Considerations

With a 202° field of view, this lens is intended for applications where maximizing angular coverage is a primary optical requirement. Engineers should therefore evaluate the relationship between camera placement, required coverage, image processing, and fisheye correction when designing the complete vision system.

For applications that need to convert lens and sensor parameters into practical scene coverage, the FOV Calculator can be used during the initial optical design stage.

Engineers can also review the Optical Design section for additional information when integrating specialized wide-field optics into embedded imaging equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a fisheye lens?
A: Yes. The 202° field of view and F-θ optical specification identify this lens as an ultra-wide fisheye lens designed for extremely broad scene coverage.

Q: What is the field of view of this 1.7mm lens?
A: With the specified ISX031 configuration, the field of view is 202° diagonal, 202° horizontal, and 165° vertical.

Q: What sensor size is this fisheye lens designed for?
A: The lens is specified for a 1/2.4″ image format with a maximum image circle of Φ5.51.

Q: Is this lens suitable for automotive applications?
A: Yes. Its 202° ultra-wide FOV, compact Φ10 configuration, and IP69K waterproof construction make it suitable for demanding automotive camera applications.

Q: What does the IP69K rating mean for this lens?
A: The IP69K construction indicates that the lens is designed for highly demanding environmental conditions involving dust and high-pressure/high-temperature water exposure.

Q: Is this a low distortion lens?
A: No. The lens uses a fisheye/F-θ optical configuration, so its specified F-θ distortion should not be interpreted in the same way as a conventional low-distortion lens. The optical design prioritizes extremely wide angular coverage.

Q: Does the lens include an IR-cut filter?
A: Yes. The specification states With IRCF, meaning an integrated IR-cut filter is included in the optical construction.

Q: What is the minimum object distance?
A: The specified M.O.D. is 0.2m, allowing the lens to capture relatively close objects while maintaining its ultra-wide viewing coverage.
