iQ-Near Focus will help you evaluate the autofocus performance of a camera. It consists of a high-contrast, motorized, translucent checkerboard test chart and a stand-alone frame mounted on wheels for easy placement. The high contrast test chart is used to actuate Autofocus on the camera reliably.

The iQ-Climate Chamber creates different temperature scenarios for camera performance testing. It is currently the only device on the market for testing your camera system in a temperature-controlled environment. The iQ-Climate Chamber itself has a test range of -30 °C to 120 °C* with a temperature stability of +/- 0.3 K. Temperature test sequences can be programmed directly on the device. To perform a test, the camera will first need to be mounted in the device with the lens pointing out of the side window. The test target is located outside of the chamber should be set up perpendicular to the optical axis. The iQ-Climate Chamber will greatly benefit almost all industries that work with cameras in revolving temperature environments. It will be particularly beneficial for testing automotive and security cameras, which are required to perform at the highest level regardless of the weather conditions.

GEOCAL is a geometric camera calibration device that uses a beam expanded laser in combination with a diffractive optical element (DOE). This device introduces a new dimension in geometric camera calibration. Geometric camera calibration is essential for systems from certain industries, particularly those relying on the detection of objects in a moving scene (e.g., automotive, ADAS, security). After geometric calibration, the camera system will be able to more concretely measure distances and detect objects in a scene. A calibrated system will also be better equipped to compensate for high distortion levels (especially for wide field-of-view cameras) and to accurately align stereo camera pairs.

The iQ-Multispectral is a multispectral illumination device based on iQ-LED technology to enhance digitalization and the preservation of documents, texts, or images. Multispectral imaging is used to visualize certain inscriptions on objects that are not visible using standard photography. An example of this is the hidden inscriptions found on the security printing of a euro banknote. Under the right light, different inscriptions on the banknote can be seen.
