HemiStar Fisheye Lenses

Navitar manufactures a wide variety of lenses for projecting onto curved surfaces. The primary markets we serve are simulation (flight and automotive), amusement and planetarium. We are familiar with a wide variety of projectors and can help you select the correct lens for your given application. 

Navitar HemiStar 100°/160°/180°/360° Fisheye lenses allow for single projector/lens presentation solutions for multiple applications. Ideal for projection on small planetarium domes, front projection into immersive environments or globe-shaped digital signage applications, HemiStar lenses allow you to project 360° images inside spherical display systems.

High Lumen Lenses

Navitar has developed lenses that work with traditional Xenon based light engines up to 40K ANSI lumens as well as 6P platforms up to 60K ANSI lumens. We have over 500 lenses installed on 1.38" DLP platforms for digital cinema applications which see 35K ANSI lumens on a daily basis.

Our designs are engineered for peak power and continual thermal cycles through on/off routines. Navitar lenses currently achieve contrast ratios in excess of 400:1.
