• 120° diagonal FOV provides broad scene coverage from a compact 1.8mm focal length.
• IR corrected optical design helps maintain focus consistency across visible and near-infrared wavelengths.
• Low distortion below -2.9% helps reduce geometric deformation in wide-angle images.
• M12x0.5 compact mounting simplifies integration into embedded cameras and space-constrained vision systems.

1.8mm M12 8MP Low Distortion Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

This 1.8mm M12 lens is designed for applications where wide-angle coverage and optical consistency across different wavelengths are required in the same camera system. Its 120° diagonal FOV allows a compact camera to observe a large surrounding area, while the 8MP resolution of the IMX415 provides sufficient image detail for visual analysis and object recognition.

The IR corrected optical design is particularly useful for camera systems that may operate with visible light and near-infrared illumination. Unlike a conventional wide-angle lens optimized for only one wavelength range, an IR corrected lens is designed to better control wavelength-dependent focus shift, helping maintain usable image sharpness when illumination conditions change.

With distortion specified below -2.9%, this lens also provides a more controlled wide-angle image than many extreme wide-field optical configurations. It can therefore be considered for machine vision, smart monitoring, robotic perception, embedded AI cameras, and near-field environmental imaging where image geometry matters.

The 0.2m MOD makes the lens suitable for relatively close-range scenes, while the M12x0.5 mount allows straightforward integration into compact camera modules. TOWIN’s M12 Lenses provide additional compact focal-length options for different sensor and field-of-view requirements.

For applications where distortion is an important optical parameter, the Distortion Guide can help engineers understand how lens distortion affects image geometry and lens selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What sensor is this 1.8mm M12 lens designed for?
A: The lens is specified for the Sony IMX415 sensor and supports up to 8MP resolution.

Q: What is the field of view of this M12 lens?
A: With the IMX415 sensor, the lens provides a 120° diagonal, 111° horizontal, and 79° vertical field of view.

Q: What does IR corrected mean for this lens?
A: IR correction refers to the optical design being optimized to control focus variation between different wavelengths. This is useful for imaging systems that operate with visible and near-infrared illumination.

Q: Is this lens a low distortion lens?
A: Yes. The specified distortion is below -2.9%. This provides better geometric control than many highly distorted ultra-wide-angle lens designs.

Q: Is this an ultra-wide-angle lens?
A: It is a wide-angle lens with a 120° diagonal FOV. However, the optical specification does not identify it as a fisheye lens, so it should be positioned as a wide-angle M12 lens rather than a fisheye product.

Q: Does the lens have an IR cut filter?
A: No. The supplied specification states “Without filter.” The lens is nevertheless IR corrected, which is an optical correction characteristic rather than the presence of an IR cut filter.

Q: What is the minimum object distance?
A: The specified MOD is 0.2m, allowing the lens to be used for relatively close-range wide-angle imaging.

Q: What applications are suitable for this lens?
A: Typical applications include compact machine vision, embedded AI cameras, robotics vision, smart monitoring, near-infrared imaging, and other systems requiring wide coverage with controlled distortion and IR-corrected imaging.
