Advanced Optical Solutions for the Next Generation of Smart Agriculture

Imaging is becoming the backbone of Smart Agriculture because it scales across autonomy, analytics, environmental intelligence, and facility automation. The value is clear: improved yield, reduced inputs, higher machine efficiency, better documentation, and faster response to stress and events.

Why Resolution & Contrast Matter: A Practical Guide for Better Imaging

Designing and implementing an imaging system often begins with a fundamental question: how much detail needs to be discerned in this image? While this may seem straightforward, the answer is not always obvious.

Publish Your Success Story

We’re excited to feature our customers' success stories, showcasing how they leveraged Sunex’s optical expertise to overcome a complex imaging challenge and bring a breakthrough product to life.

Customer Success Story: ART SpA Parking Camera

Camera systems for high-end sports cars must excel under extreme environmental conditions. Read how ART SpA from Italy is mastering this challenge with Sunex as its optics partner.

SXM™ Technology: Redefining Lens Interchangeability

Re-focusing the lens and re-calibrating each time a lens is changed requires both time and money. SXM mounting technology overcomes these limitations, as lenses can be magnetically swapped in seconds, already pre-aligned and pre-focused, creating an incredibly adaptable imaging system.

Choosing the Right Sourcing Strategy for M12 Lenses

Selecting the right lens sourcing strategy has direct, long-term consequences on image performance, supply continuity, and program economics. The market currently offers three distinct channels: internet platforms, catalog-style intermediaries, and direct OEM partnerships.

Lens Hybridization for µLED Headlamps

This paper examines how lens hybridization, combining glass and plastic optical elements, can deliver optimized solutions for automotive µLED HD Lighting systems.

Sunex DXM™ – Stereo Vision in a Smaller Package

As robotics and automation systems grow increasingly compact, intelligent, and power-efficient, the supporting vision technologies must evolve in parallel.

Off-Highway-Vehicle (OHV) Solutions

We understand that your application requires reliable optical performance despite being subjected to environmental extremes.

Medical Solutions

Deep optical design experience and advanced process and manufacturing know-how will drive single-use as the future of endoscopy.

Medical Brochure

We work with you to find the best balance between cost and performance to meet the often unique application requirements.

Understanding MTF in Digital Imaging

When evaluating or designing an imaging system, one of the most important (and often misunderstood) specs is the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF).

Custom Optics vs. Chip-level Camera Modules

Custom Optics for Medical Devices offer a Flexible Alternative to Chip-level Cameras for single-use endoscopes.

Medical Camera Modules

Our expertise address these need for advanced medical camera modules, designed specifically for demanding medical applications.

High CRA vs Low CRA CMOS Sensors: Impact on Lens Design Performance

There are significant drawbacks of utilizing high CRA sensors for applications where a short z-height and compactness are not as important.
