Theia’s 4K lenses are designed for use in high-detail imaging tasks such as ANPR or OCR in intelligent traffic systems, automation, robotics, and video surveillance applications. The 4K lenses come in 4-10mm, 6-10mm and 12-50mm focal ranges, provide 12 megapixel, 300 lp/mm resolution and are IR-corrected from 435 – 940nm to maintain their high-resolution performance in the near IR spectrum.

The lenses are offered in manual, DC Auto, or P-iris versions, in CS, C mount and D25 board mount depending on the model.  The lenses cover 2/3”, 1/1.7” and 1/2.3” image sensor formats or smaller. 

Fully-motorised versions are also available, with motorised zoom and focus and combinations with optional integrated IR cut or bandpass filters and photo-interrupter motor stops. The motorised lenses allow for remote set up and occasional zooming and re-focus. Theia also offers motor control boards designed to control the P-iris lens versions. 

Choosing the right lens for your application depends on many factors including field of view, required image resolution, multi-spectral capability, image format and mount. To assist in lens selection, Theia offers an image resolution simulator and lens calculator that relates field of view object distance and image resolution. We offer many educational materials for a better understanding of our lens technology and selection of the optimal lens for your application. 

Theia lenses are designed and marketed from the US and manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 standards. Theia’s process of precision engineering, prototype development and validation ensure every lens shipped to our customers will be of consistently high quality. Theia also provides optical engineering and custom design services.

Theia has numerous issued and pending US and foreign patents for lens technologies.
