High Resolution Lenses for machine vision, instrumentation, inspection and vibration-sensitive applications. Standard and custom hi-res lens assemblies.

When you cross an international border, park too close to a major sporting event or find yourself at an airport to witness the arrival of an important dignitary and you may find that your automobile is inspected for security reasons. With security issues around the world, these inspections are becoming more commonplace.

Organizations around the world are increasing their security levels to protect key individuals and properties against serious threats to safety. Intelligent systems such as illumination systems, cameras, interfaces, and software are being employed for high-performance vehicle inspection and tracking applications. Applications can be used for license plate reading, undercarriage and carriage vehicle inspection, as well as inspection of trains, container trucks, and ships.

These vital systems can track anomalies by comparing real-time images with that of a previous screening enabling security personnel to verify, alert and rapidly respond to possible threats. These inspection systems have the ability to scan the vehicle undercarriage (or other mode of transport), capture high quality images, provide zoom capabilities, and automatically detect any discrepancy.

With security top of mind in so many situations, these inspection systems are playing a more vital role in everyday business. Custom lens design makes these systems possible. Universe Optics is a manufacturer of standard and custom machine vision lenses. Universe Optics also creates lens assemblies for scanners, CCTV, CCD/CMOS, medical imaging, surveillance systems and night vision systems. The company has been involved in the manufacture of lenses and technologies such as those used in this laser and visioning technology.
