Five tools

ToolWhat it does
recommend_lens_for_imagerGive it an imager PN → compatible lenses with FOV and angular resolution. One shot.
search_imagersFind sensors by PN, manufacturer, or resolution class.
get_imager_detailFull sensor specs plus computed geometry (width / height / diagonal in mm).
find_compatible_lensesGiven pixel count + pitch, return lenses whose image circle covers the sensor.
search_productsFull catalog search by PN or keyword, with sample pricing and RFQ links.

Example prompts

  • "Recommend a wide-angle lens for the Sony IMX577 with F/2.0 or faster."
  • "I need fisheye lenses under $100."
  • "What's the diagonal of the IMX477 in mm?"
  • "Find lenses for a 1920×1080 sensor with 3µm pixels, 100–180° HFOV."
