Much has been spoken about, especially by smart phone manufacturers, about the benefits of mega pixels offered in their devices. Mega pixels and high resolution lenses go hand-in-hand to provide a high end user experience and top of the line photo or image quality.

High resolution lenses help minimize distortion and enhance the quality of the image captured. Cameras or machine vision devices that couple a high resolution lens with high contrast technologies provide an image that has sharp lines and clear definition.

In industrial settings, mega pixel lenses that feature a 12mm up to a 50 mm range are more than capable of being used in, and for, a wide array of machine vision applications. High resolution and mega pixels aid in the delicate work performed in some machine vision operations.

Manufacturers of lenses used in CCTV cameras have been honing the technologies to meet the continued demands for machine vision and robotic uses. The miniaturization and introduction of lenses and sensors that can be adapted for use in CCTV cameras also contribute to increased efficiency. Smaller cameras are also able to be installed in areas in which the installer wants them to remain virtually undetected. Lens manufacturers’ are working with clients to provide smaller CCTV technologies that incorporate high resolution lenses with the mega pixel qualities that capture images with low distortion.

While not all CCTV and security camera technologies need to be either in miniaturized form or of high resolution for those industries in which these high resolution devices are needed for surveillance, there are a wide variety of options available. The benefits of high resolution and high mega pixel technologies are also typically required in the fields of robotic vision, automated production technologies and machine vision for defect detection.
