ZY Changchun Zhongyou Precision Zoom Optics

FEATURED INTEGRATED OPTICAL SYSTEM

Single-Lens Dual-Sensor Beam-Splitting Zoom Lens

One motorized zoom lens and a beam-splitting prism feed visible and short-wave infrared sensors at the same time, keeping both channels on one shared scene through the full zoom range.

Single-lens dual-sensor imaging

Lens model
SK40/20X/F2-400
Channel
Visible + SWIR

01 / OPTICAL ARCHITECTURE

One optical path. Two synchronized channels.

A broadband zoom group forms the shared front optical path. The beam splitter then directs the image to dedicated visible and SWIR sensors, reducing duplicated optics while preserving channel-specific detection.

02 / SYSTEM VALUE

Designed for compact dual-band integration

01

Synchronized field of view

Both channels observe the same scene as focal length changes.

02

Broadband correction

Optical correction spans 400-1700 nm across visible and SWIR bands.

03

Motorized control

Motorized zoom, preset zoom, autofocus and constant-focus operation.

04

System-ready interface

RS-422 control, magnetic position feedback and 12 V operation.

03 / SYNCHRONIZED IMAGING

Visible and SWIR imaging through the same zoom system

First-party comparison frames show both channels at short, medium and long focal positions. Captions are presented outside the source image.

04 / FIELD EVIDENCE

108 km field observation example

The existing field record documents an observation from Penglai toward Laotieshan, Dalian, at approximately 108 km under reported 20 km visibility.

Field range depends on atmosphere, visibility, target properties, sensor configuration and complete system integration; this example is not a guaranteed range for every deployment.
