Motorized lens motion and new image sensor technology are combining to unleash the full imaging potential of high-resolution, miniature security cameras and biometric detection systems. New M3-F focus modules from News Scale Technologies add motorized focus to multi-function, high-resolution cameras. The technology increases the accuracy and versatility of mobile devices, without adding weight or bulk, and also operates from battery power.

Adding dynamic focus enables both wide field and macro imaging, enabling multifunction cameras to image facial features, capture video, read barcodes and scan fingerprints with a single device. Optical zoom provides greater clarity of details for a higher level of accuracy and security. Auto focus provides faster and more accurate matches in biometric detection applications such as facial recognition and iris scanning...
