ADAS / FORWARD & SIDE VIEW
ADAS camera lenses engineered for dependable perception
Forward and side sensing systems need more than nominal resolution. The lens must preserve usable contrast across field, temperature and difficult light while fitting the sensor, package and production target.

A strong ADAS lens specification aligns sensor pixel size, MTF across the full field, distortion strategy, HDR stray-light control, chief ray angle, thermal focus stability and mechanical tolerances before tooling begins.
01 / DESIGN PRIORITIES
What the lens must control
- Resolution matched to the selected automotive image sensor
- Stable MTF from center to edge and across operating temperature
- Ghost and flare control for sunlight, headlamps and high-contrast scenes
- Low F/#, HDR/WDR compatibility and controlled relative illumination
- Mechanical stack-up designed for repeatable active alignment or fixed-focus assembly
- Automotive reliability validation and scalable process control
02 / PROJECT INPUTS
Information needed to start optical evaluation
- Sensor model, optical format and pixel size
- Target HFOV / VFOV / DFOV and distortion model
- Required MTF frequency and field positions
- Operating and storage temperature
- TTL, BFL, mount and envelope constraints
- SOP timing, validation plan and annual volume
