Inquiry and application contextThe customer describes the system, optical function, sensor, field of view, working distance, mechanical limits, environment and project stage.
OEM / Custom
OEM / Custom: when optics must fit the customer system.
Not every project can be solved with a standard off-the-shelf lens. In industrial, UAV, security, space and R&D applications, optics often need to match the sensor, housing, operating conditions, control method and qualification process.

How collaboration works
A clear process makes it easier to start a technical discussion and collect the data needed to assess the project.
Confidentiality and technical dataWhen required, we agree an NDA before sensitive data is shared. The initial description may contain public information only.
Requirements analysisWe check whether the right path is an existing lens, mechanical adaptation, component selection, a custom project or additional module control.
Solution conceptA proposal is prepared covering parameters, variants, components, limitations, documentation and information required for quotation or further testing.
Prototype, samples or validationWe prepare agreed samples or a prototype, test them in the customer system and refine the short-series configuration.
Deliveries and project developmentAfter the solution is confirmed, we define B2B deliveries, documentation, repeatability requirements, updates and further component development.
OEM
When to choose OEM / Custom collaboration
The situations below are a good signal to start a project inquiry.
- a standard lens has the wrong FOV, mount, dimensions, mass or operating range
- optics must be matched to a specific sensor, camera, head or device
- lens elements, an optical group or a module are needed instead of a complete consumer lens
- the system requires focus control, calibration, module logic or simple software
- the project is a prototype, test, technology demonstrator, short series or serial delivery
- the integrator needs documentation, NDA, samples, drawings or validation data
- the component will operate in an industrial device, camera, UAV, observation system or space project
Technical inquiry
We help define optical requirements at every stage of your project.
You do not need complete documentation at the outset. Send us a concept outline, sketch, sensor datasheet or requirements table. We will review the materials and identify the key parameters needed to select or design the right optical solution.
