Inquiry about camera lens for M0161, Starling 2
-
Our lab has several ModalAI Starling 2 and Starling 2 Max UAVs. We want to experiment with the onboard RGB camera with lenses WITHOUT an IR-cut filter.
Specifically for Starling 2 (small) UAVs, I think the camera is tested with a lens without IR-cut filter, as described here https://docs.modalai.com/M0161/#outdoor-without-ir-filter
It seems that the make and model of the lenses are
- DAIWON 27629F-16MAS-CM: with IR cut filter. The lens we have on our UAVs.
- DAIWON 27629F-16MAS-BM: without IR cut filter.
My question is do you have these lenses WITHOUT IR cut filters available for sale? It is hard for us to find the exact model.
Thank you!

@yaoyuh, sorry for the delay. It looks like we have the lenses in stock, so you could fill out the contract form for a custom order and mention part number "M10000513 - Lens for M0161 Camera without IR filter".

Also, you can remove the IR filter from your current lenses. You have to be a bit careful so that the pieces of filter are not spread in your work space. My suggestion would be to first place a small piece of tape on top of the filter which will keep all the pieces together if the filter breaks during removal. The filter has a rectangular shape and is attached to the back side of the lens with an adhesive in 4 corners. It should be possible to just pry it off from the back of the lens (after completely removing the lens from the camera module). When you remove the lens from the camera module, you should cover it up so that dust does not get inside and on the sensor itself.
Please note that removing the filter from the lens is not an official guideline, but you could do it at your own risk.
Please see the following post where we also discussed removing the IR filter from AR0144 (which was actually more difficult because the filter there has a round shape) : https://forum.modalai.com/topic/4826/msu-m0149-1-ir-filter

@Alex-Kushleyev Thank you! I filed a contact form mentioning the product. I hope some sales staff will contact me soon.
Regarding removing the filter by ourselves, I consider that to be my last resort. And thank you for pointing that out also.

@Alex-Kushleyev I tried to reach out using a contact form, mentioning "M10000513 - Lens for M0161 Camera without IR filter". However, I got a reply saying I need to use the following link to make my order. But the link leads to a camera product with a different lens. I only need the M10000513 lens without a camera. Can you provide any help on this? Thank you!
