Programmable Liquid Lens
Corning Varioptic LensesRequest Info
Varioptic has announced its second-generation liquid lens product
family. The B617 programmable liquid lens is the first offering in the Baltic line
that integrates optical image stabilization and autofocus functionality into the
same element. The company says that it is a breakthrough for products such as smart
phones that can now provide much higher still photo and video quality. The lenses
are also used in dental and biometric cameras and other medical devices. The B617
compensates for handshake blur and improves low-light image quality. With no moving
parts, the liquid lens is robust to shocks and uses up to 90% less power than voice
coil motor actuators. It easily fits into typical mobile products and smart phone
cameras.
