1.5mm 16MP M12 Fisheye Lens – 180° Ultra-Wide Field of View

This 1.5mm M12 fisheye lens is designed for compact imaging systems that require an extremely wide field of view and high-resolution image capture. Featuring a 1/2.3″ image format, 16MP resolution, and an impressive 180° diagonal, horizontal, and vertical FOV, this lens provides near-hemispherical scene coverage from a compact optical package. Its F2.0 fixed aperture supports consistent imaging, while the M12x0.5 mount enables integration with compact cameras and embedded vision devices. With only 14.92mm TTL and a 0.2m minimum object distance, this 16MP M12 fisheye lens is well suited for applications where maximum scene coverage and compact system integration are important.

M12 Fisheye Lens Applications & Compatible Devices

1. Panoramic and 360° Imaging

The 180° FOV makes this M12 fisheye lens suitable for panoramic imaging systems that need to capture a very large scene from a single camera position. It can help reduce blind spots and simplify camera placement in compact panoramic devices.

Compatible devices: Panoramic cameras, 180° cameras, compact surveillance cameras, panoramic imaging modules.

2. Indoor Smart Security

For indoor monitoring systems where broad area coverage is more important than rectilinear image geometry, the 1.5mm fisheye design can capture a large surrounding area from a single camera. This can be useful in rooms, entrances, retail environments, and other spaces requiring wide-area observation.

Compatible devices: Smart security cameras, indoor monitoring cameras, compact IP camera modules, embedded security devices.

3. Robotics and Embedded Vision

The compact 14.92mm TTL and M12x0.5 mount make this lens suitable for embedded vision platforms where camera size and scene coverage are important design considerations. The 180° FOV can provide robots or compact devices with a broad visual field for environmental awareness.

Compatible devices: Mobile robots, service robots, autonomous platforms, embedded vision cameras, compact perception modules.

4. Action and Compact Camera Systems

The combination of 1.5mm focal length, 180° FOV, F2.0 aperture, and 16MP resolution makes this lens suitable for compact camera systems requiring immersive or ultra-wide image capture.

Compatible devices: Action cameras, wearable cameras, compact digital cameras, embedded camera modules.

5. Panoramic Monitoring and Immersive Imaging

The lens can be used in applications where capturing the maximum possible scene within a single frame is a primary requirement. Its fisheye optical design is particularly appropriate for panoramic monitoring and immersive imaging systems.

Designed for panoramic and ultra-wide-angle imaging applications.

Why Choose This M12 Fisheye Lens?

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a fisheye lens?
A: Yes. With a 180° diagonal, horizontal, and vertical FOV and distortion below -97%, this lens is designed as an ultra-wide fisheye optical solution rather than a rectilinear low-distortion lens.

Q: What sensor size is this 1.5mm M12 fisheye lens designed for?
A: The lens is specified for a 1/2.3″ image format and provides a 180° FOV configuration.

Q: What is the resolution of this M12 fisheye lens?
A: The lens is rated at 16MP resolution, making it suitable for high-resolution compact imaging systems.

Q: What is the field of view of the 1.5mm lens?
A: The specified FOV is 180° diagonal, 180° horizontal, and 180° vertical.

Q: Is this lens suitable for applications requiring low distortion?
A: No. The <-97% distortion specification is characteristic of an extreme fisheye optical design. For applications requiring geometrically accurate images, a dedicated low-distortion lens is more appropriate.

Q: What camera mount does this fisheye lens use?
A: It uses an M12x0.5 mount, which is widely used for compact camera and embedded imaging modules.

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

Q: Can TOWIN provide customized M12 fisheye lenses?
A: TOWIN can evaluate customized optical requirements such as sensor format, focal length, field of view, resolution, and mechanical integration requirements. Contact TOWIN to discuss your specific project.
