OPT Hippo Series Liquid Telecentric Lens

OPT Hippo Series – Liquid Telecentric Lens (Industrial Telecentric Lenses)

The OPT Hippo Series Liquid Telecentric Lens combines the benefits of telecentric optics with advanced liquid-lens technology and is designed for demanding industrial measurement, inspection, and automation tasks in machine vision systems. The telecentric design ensures scale-accurate, low-distortion imaging, keeping object size constant even when the working distance changes—an essential advantage for high-precision metrology and quality control.

By integrating a liquid lens, this series enables electronically controlled focus adjustment with extremely fast response times (image stabilized in approx. 10 ms) and excellent repeatability (± 0.01 dpt). An integrated temperature-compensation function continuously corrects thermal variations in real time, ensuring stable optical performance in changing industrial environments.

With high optical resolution of up to approx. 145 lp/mm, minimal distortion, and compatibility with camera sensors up to 1.1″, the Hippo Series Liquid Telecentric Lenses are ideal for precision measurement, surface and defect inspection, as well as position and feature analysis in automated production and inspection systems.
