Easy-to-integrate modules enable precision motorized lens motion
in miniature OEM cameras for biometric security, machine vision,
medical diagnostics and more
Victor, NY - August 25, 2010 – New Scale
Technologies, Inc. today announced that developer's kits for its
miniature M3-F
focus module are available for purchase online, shipping from
stock, at
http://shop.newscaletech.com.
Each kit includes an M3-F module for precision closed-loop lens
motion, along with a USB adapter and New Scale Pathway software for
easy evaluation and prototyping. Configured for I2C or SPI serial
interface, the modules in the developer’s kits accommodate M12 or
smaller lenses and image sensors up to 17 x 17 mm.
Each M3-F module is an integrated micro-mechatronics system
incorporating a piezoelectric SQUIGGLE micro motor, position sensor,
driver and microprocessor in a compact 20 x 22 x 16 mm housing. With
small size and low power use, it is ideal for OEM camera systems.
Mounted over the sensor on an OEM board camera, it improves image
quality and efficiency in applications such as biometric imaging,
machine vision and medical diagnostic systems.
Developer's Kit Specifications
- Model: DK-M3F-1.8-TRK-1.5
- Lens (not included): Standard M12x0.5mm, typical 5 grams
weight; smaller lenses (to M8x0.35) accommodated with adapter
(not included)

- Dimensions: 20 x 22 x 16 mm
- Weight (without lens): 6.4 grams
See additional specifications at M3-F
information page.
Price and availability
Me-F Developer’s Kits are $750 and are available from
stock.
Order online or call +1 (55) 924-4450 x2.
M3-F production modules are customized to OEM
specifications for lens (from M6 to M12 size), image sensor, focal length, board
camera PCB mounting pattern, and other requirements. Pricing and
delivery depend on specifications and volume. Custom prototypes are
typically available 8 weeks after acceptance of proposal. RFPs can
