Calculate FOV and Imaging Distance

Using our online calculators you can determine which Zivid camera best fits your application in terms of the FOV and distance of imaging. To get a visual representation, you can download CAD files of Zivid cameras with FOV from CAD files. If you are looking for the FOV and working distance information in a written form, please check out our datasheets, which is on the same webpage.

FOV calculator

The FOV calculator outputs the size of the FOV (width and height) and spatial resolution for a given Zivid camera model and the imaging working distance.

Select camera model:
Working distance The working distance is defined as the distance from the camera lens to the object of interest.
: 1100 mm
3003000
Width [mm]:

1095

Spatial resolution [mm]:

0.45

Dimension trueness error [%] 70-percentile dimension error in field of view at given distance and at typical temperature range. Dimension trueness is found by measuring the error of multiple calibrated reference distances in the point cloud. A reference distance can be 5 to 50 cm. The calibrated reference object is measured repeatedly across the entire field of view and operating distance, and during exposure of thermal and mechanical stress, such as temperature change, vibration, and shock.

Height [mm]:

Point precision [um] 1-sigma Euclidean distance variation for a point. Point precision is found by measuring an individual point's capture-to-capture variation in space for all points in the point cloud over multiple consecutive measurements.

Tip

Two camera models may both be in the optimal working distance for your application. In those cases choose the one with lower point precision. This is because the working distance is then closer to the focus point.
