180° Ultra-Wide FOV
The 1.8mm focal length delivers a 180° diagonal field of view, allowing a single camera to capture an exceptionally broad scene. The 130° horizontal and 99° vertical coverage further support wide-area environmental imaging.
Compact 1/4″ Sensor Solution
Designed for 1/4″ image sensors, this lens provides a compact optical configuration for camera modules that require fisheye-level coverage without a large mechanical package.
65% Relative Illumination
The specified 65% relative illumination helps maintain useful image brightness toward the edge of the image circle, which is particularly relevant for ultra-wide-angle systems where peripheral illumination can become a design challenge.
Manual Focus for Optical Integration
The manual focus design allows installers and camera engineers to adjust the focus position during system integration, providing flexibility for different camera-to-scene distances.
Fixed F2.5 Aperture
The F2.5 fixed aperture provides a stable optical configuration and simplifies camera integration where adjustable iris control is not required.
Compact M12x0.5 Interface
The M12x0.5 mount is well suited to compact board cameras and embedded imaging modules, allowing the ultra-wide optical system to be integrated into space-constrained camera designs.
IR Cut Filter Integration
The 6G + IR cut filter construction is designed for visible-light imaging applications and helps provide a practical optical configuration for security and monitoring cameras.
Panoramic Security Cameras
The 180° diagonal FOV allows cameras to capture a very broad scene from a single mounting point, making this lens suitable for panoramic surveillance and wide-area security monitoring.

Indoor Panoramic Monitoring
The 130° horizontal field of view can cover a large indoor area from a relatively compact camera position, making the lens suitable for rooms, entrances, corridors and equipment monitoring.
Embedded Vision
The M12x0.5 interface and compact optical configuration make this lens suitable for embedded cameras, IoT devices and compact vision modules where wide coverage is required within limited installation space.
Robotics & Autonomous Vision
An ultra-wide fisheye lens can provide a robotic platform with a broad view of its immediate surroundings, supporting environmental observation and near-field perception.
TOWIN also develops optical solutions for Robotics Vision, including compact lenses for embedded and autonomous imaging systems.
Wide-Area IoT Cameras
The combination of an ultra-wide FOV and compact M12 interface makes this lens suitable for selected smart-camera and IoT applications requiring broad environmental coverage from a small camera module.
Machine Vision & Inspection
For selected machine vision applications, the 180° FOV can be useful when the primary requirement is broad scene capture rather than conventional perspective imaging. For more controlled-FOV industrial inspection, see TOWIN’s Machine Vision Lens range.
