INFO LENS CALCULATOR
FIELD OF VIEW (FOV) CALCULATOR
HOW TO CALCULATE:
— Distance to object:
- select camera sensor size
- enter object width or height
- enter lens focal length
- click “Calculate Obj Dist” button
- select camera sensor size
- enter object distance
- enter lens focal length
- click “Calculate Obj Size” button
- select camera sensor size
- enter object distance
- enter object width or height
- click “Calculate focal length” button
Having established the focal length it is then important to consider other aspects of the lens ‘specification’ such as minimum working distance, resolution and resolving power. There are hundreds of lenses to choose from so please give SDVision a call to discuss your application so we can offer further advice.
FOV RESOLUTION (PIXEL SIZE) CALCULATOR
HOW TO CALCULATE:
— Pixel Size:
- enter CCD width and height in pixels (ex: 640 x 480)
- enter object or FOV width and height (ex: 4 x 3.75)
Note: width and height will be adjusted to the maintain the correct FOV proportions. - click “Calculate” button
