Automotive Night Vision (NV)

For maximum performance and minimal collision risk, thermal imaging night vision systems must achieve high accuracy, and allow for long distance object detection. These factors are critical in providing the driver with sufficient response time.

The key to meeting these requirements is the use of high sensitivity and high resolution optics – such as Ophir’s athermalized lenses. Using innovative optical and mechanical designs, Ophir’s lenses allow for full operation in all environmental conditions, while also featuring a compact size, and competitive costs. Ophir has earned its reputation as a world-leading designer and supplier in the field of thermal imaging optics for the automotive market. Ophir’s superior optics increase pedestrian recognition software performance, allowing a greater ability to anticipate potential hazards. Crafted with years of experience, Ophir’s IR thermal imaging lenses feature the highest quality components and materials, designed especially to meet the needs of the industry. As the largest automotive IR thermal optics supplier for the European automotive market, Ophir’s lenses are integrated in the night visions systems of top European cars, with an installed base of hundreds of thousands of lenses.
