Compact camera modules for eye tracking & AR/VR systems.
The Most Demanding Form Factor in Imaging
Eye tracking and AR/VR headsets impose the most extreme combination of constraints in consumer and professional imaging: the module must be invisible to the wearer, weigh almost nothing, consume minimal power, and still image at very close range.
Compact design — must fit within headset optics assembly
Lightweight requirements — every gram affects wearability
Close object distance (eye-to-camera range typically 20–40 mm)
How We Engineer Around It
Custom Lens Design
Engineered for eye-tracking geometry and close working distance
Custom Electronics
Minimal PCB footprint via custom electrical / SMT design
Ultra Low Power
Critical for headset battery life
Wafer Level Optics
Smallest possible module height for headset integration
Custom by Default — Not as an Exception
Eye tracking and AR/VR are inherently custom applications — no catalogue lens or standard module will fit the geometry. Appleye’s in-house optical design capability and access to wafer level optics manufacturing means we can deliver a module that is designed around your headset, not adapted to it.
