Telecentric optical system is an optical design that where the principal ray in parallel to the optical axis. It eliminates distortion problems by collimating the light entering the lens and suitable for imaging 3D objects. Co-axial illumination is suitable for recognizing object with high reflectance such as wafer, glass, and metal.
Size of 3D object changes when it goes up and down when non-telecentric lens is used.
Telecentric lens is suitable for accurate measurement of 3D object.
Most of lenses in our lineups are designed for finite distance. Image format (sensor size) divided by object size equal to optical magnification. It is the most important to select a lens.

Length of line sensor is formed, depended on pixel size and resolution. As the sensor size is larger, design and
manufacture of a lens for line sensor are more difficult and complicated.
