Pericentric Lenses are an exclusive product developed by Opto Engineering to enable 3D peripheral vision of objects without the aid of mirrors. By means of this unique optical design, just one camera shot is enough to capture the top and side views of an object.

 

The name “pericentric” is because of the specific path of the light rays: the aperture
pupil is seen from object space as if it was moving around the peripheral zone of the front optical group.
