The TECHSPEC® MercuryTL™ Liquid Lens Telecentric Lenses combine the parallax error correction and high image quality of a telecentric lens with the flexibility of an integrated liquid lens.

Greg Hollows, Vice President of the Imaging Business Unit for Edmund Optics, discusses the three different types of ruggedization for imaging lenses and how they can maintain the optical performance of your imaging lens.

Need an asphere fast? Edmund Optics' off-the-shelf solutions can be modifed in little-to-no time!

Color-corrected optical lenses are ideal for many applications because they reduce multiple aberrations. Learn more about the advantages at Edmund Optics.

Fresnel lenses are composed of a series of concentric grooves etched into one side of a sheet of plastic. Fresnel lenses are unlike typical spherical or aspherical optical lenses.

Aspherized Achromatic Lenses, exclusive to Edmund Optics, are doublet lenses consisting of two cemented optical elements that are matched for their color-correction ability and small RMS spot size.
