Aspheric glass lenses have high advantages in terms of light transmittance, refractive index, temperature range, distortion rate, wear resistance, chromatic aberration, imaging effect and stability. Molded glass aspherical lenses refer to using optical glass precision molding technology to prepare aspherical lenses that meet usage requirements. This report focuses on molded glass aspheric lenses for automotive applications.

Aspheric glass lenses have high advantages in terms of light transmittance, refractive index, temperature range, distortion rate, wear resistance, chromatic aberration, imaging effect and stability. Optical glass precision molding technology is a high-efficiency, green and environmentally friendly high-precision optical element manufacturing technology. It has become the mainstream technology for manufacturing aspherical glass lenses and has now entered the stage of mass manufacturing of aspherical optical elements. The market demand for aspherical glass lenses is increasingly widespread, and they are widely used in consumer electronics such as smartphones, security monitoring, and automobile transportation. With the rapid development of the global automotive industry, aspheric glass lenses can more accurately match the high-quality requirements of on-board cameras under the intelligent trend. Optical components, as an important entrance for information collection at the perception layer such as vehicle lenses and lidar, will benefit from the development of the smart driving market. The automotive molded glass aspherical lens market has broad development potential.
