Theia Technologies was awarded for its innovative design in the video surveillance advanced imaging technologies category for their calibrated motorised lenses for remote image optimisation which are individually characterised and calibrated to provide a rich array of data sets. The calibrated data is provided so the user can optimise image quality in real time and without the requirement of difficult or costly field calibration fixtures, making it ideal for real-time imaging applications like video surveillance and other security applications.

“Theia is gratified to be recognised yet again for our leadership in imaging technology and the contribution we make to enhance video surveillance performance. As the importance of image processing grows for 21st century applications, Theia is proud to set the pace in optics for the security industry.,” said Jeff Gohman, president of Theia Technologies.

The lens' motorised focus, focal length, and aperture allow the installer to remotely control the lens to optimise the image at any time. With the addition of the calibration data such as distortion and focal length v. motor step curves the field of view can be calculated and the lens set to provide the best image detail for the application.
