Flat Lens Ultra-Compact Lightweight MWIR Zoom lens for small pixel

Attollo Engineering will develop a zoom capable ultra-compact lightweight MWIR camera based off its commercial MWIR Griffin-HD8 camera with a zoom capable Metalens optic. The imager format is 1280 x 720 on an 8 micron pitch, among the smallest size in industry weighing just 240 grams without the optical lens, and was designed for small battery-operated Group 1 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The f/# of the metalens optical system can be continuously varied between f/2 and f/10, while the FOV is changed between 50░ and 10░, yielding a zoom range of 5X. Near diffraction-limited imaging performance has been achieved over the entire zoom range and FOV. Attollo will integrate the zoom capable metalens into our sensor in a very small size weight and power package providing the smallest and lightest ISR system solution enabling use on smaller gimbals.
