Universe Optics High-Resolution VX Lens Series
The shift toward larger sensors — including 1-inch and 1.1-inch formats — reflects a trend in machine vision and scientific imaging: more sensor area means larger pixels at a given resolution, and larger pixels mean better light capture, improved signal-to-noise ratio, and stronger performance in low-light or high-speed applications. A wider imaging circle also delivers a broader field of view. For systems integrators and OEM designers specifying cameras in the 1" to 1.1" range, lens compatibility across these formats adds flexibility as camera platforms evolve — and ensures the optics never become the bottleneck.
Universe Optics' 1.1"-compatible VX lens lineup is compatible with large-format sensors and industrial cameras, covering a 17.6mm image circle on a standard C-mount. With fixed iris and compact design, these lenses are ideal for industrial machine vision, automated inspection lines, laboratory imaging setups, and any application where controlled, stable illumination is essential. Fixed iris also means fewer moving parts and lower cost in volume OEM builds. And like most Universe Optics lenses, this lineup — spanning 16mm to 100mm — can be modified to different F/numbers and barrel design, as well as ruggedized, giving engineers direct control over light throughput, depth of field, and form factor for their specific application.
