Our optical coatings enhance light transmission and reduce reflections, and the oleophobic coating protects against smudges and fingerprints, keeping the window clear and clean. With our end-to-end solution, you receive a ready-to-use protective window that’s built to excel in even the most demanding environments.
Substrates
Scratch and Impact Resistant Windows
Scratch resistance is a crucial feature for glass used in front of a camera sensor because even minor scratches can significantly degrade image quality. Scratches on the glass can scatter light, creating unwanted artifacts, blurriness, and loss of sharpness in captured images.
For impact-resistant camera enclosures and protective glass applications, several types of glass are particularly well-suited due to their durability and strength:
Ultra Thin Glass
JNS Glass offers Ultra-thin glass as thin at 100um. Ultra thin glass is important in front of a camera sensors for several reasons
Improved image quality
Enhanced sensitivity
Compact design
Reduced parallax error
Compatibility with advanced coatings
Infrared Optics
Enhance your camera systems with our specially designed NIR (Near Infrared) and LWIR (Long-Wave Infrared) filters, engineered to optimize performance across diverse spectral ranges.
Ideal for a variety of applications—from industrial diagnostics to advanced surveillance
Our selection includes high-quality silicon filters, dual bandpass filters for both visible and NIR, longpass filters for superior transmission in the infrared spectrum, and shortpass filters that effectively block IR and or visible unwanted wavelengths while allowing targeted imaging.
Bandpass Filters
Bandpass filters are required in various optical and imaging applications to selectively transmit a specific range of wavelengths while blocking others. By allowing only the desired wavelengths to pass through, bandpass filters help reduce background noise, improve contrast, and isolate specific colors or spectral features.
This is essential in applications such as fluorescence microscopy, remote sensing, and multi-spectral imaging
Acrylic Windows
Acrylic optical windows can be suitable for camera enclosures, depending on the specific requirements of the application. Acrylic is lightweight, impact-resistant, and offers good optical clarity, making it a practical choice for environments where durability and reduced weight are important.
JNS Glass offers acrylic windows that are hardcoated, antireflection coated and can be quickly laser cut to any shape or size for immediate delivery.
Optical Dome
JNS Glass and Coatings’ optical domes are crafted to provide exceptional clarity and protection for camera enclosures, making them an ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor applications. Engineered from high-quality materials such as BK7, Fused Silica and borosilicate, these domes minimize distortion, ensuring that every image captured is sharp and true to life.
Their durable construction resists environmental elements, including UV rays, moisture, and impacts, ensuring longevity and reliability in various conditions.
Coatings & Finishing
Anti-Reflective / Glare Reduction Coatings
An anti-reflection (AR) coating is an important feature for glass used in front of a camera sensor because it significantly enhances image quality by reducing reflections and glare. Here’s why it matters
Improved light transmission
Reduced glare and ghosting
Enhanced image clarity
Better performance in bright conditions
Increased sensor efficiency
Oleophobic Coatings
Oleophobic coatings are crucial on a camera lens or cover glass because they repel oils, water, and other substances, keeping the lens surface clean and clear. This coating minimizes smudges from fingerprints, reducing the need for frequent cleaning and preventing streaks or marks that could degrade image quality. By maintaining a cleaner lens, the oleophobic coating ensures that the camera captures sharp, high-contrast images without distortion from contaminants. Additionally, it makes the lens easier to clean when necessary, prolonging the lifespan of the lens by reducing the risk of scratches and other damage during maintenance.
VHB
Using VHB (Very High Bond) adhesive to adhere your optical glass window to a camera enclosure offers several key advantages. VHB provides an exceptionally strong and durable bond, ensuring that the glass remains securely attached even under challenging conditions, such as vibration, temperature fluctuations, and exposure to the elements. This adhesive also offers flexibility, which helps absorb and distribute stress, reducing the risk of cracking or damage to the glass over time. Additionally, VHB creates a watertight seal that prevents moisture and dust from entering the enclosure, protecting the camera’s internal components and ensuring consistent image quality. JNS Glass will provide a layer of paint to conceal the VHB from the viewable area.
Printing/Graphics
Elevate your optical windows with our advanced printing capabilities, allowing you to add precise borders, graphics, and custom designs directly onto the glass. Whether you need functional markings, branding elements, or aesthetic enhancements, our state-of-the-art printing technology ensures crisp, high-resolution results that seamlessly integrate with the optical window. This capability not only enhances the visual appeal of your product but also provides practical benefits, such as clearly defined edges or functional overlays, without compromising the optical clarity or performance.
