Further fields of application
Qioptiq has been developing and producing high-definition objectives for various
applications for more than 60 years. These are used in areas such as medical
endoscopy and confined industrial imaging, security and monitoring systems.
Operation in sewer and pipe inspection
The lens delivers crisp sharp images of tube walls, which allows using a twodimensional software "unfolding" of the tube. Damaged areas can now be more
easily detected at a sewer inspection.
Due to the compact design, the objective can be universally adapted to cameras
for the industrial sector. Therefore it is ideally suited for inspection, machine
vision and security surveillance.
