An illuminator has a printed circuit board supporting a ring of light emitting diodes (LEDs). An annular Fresnel lens and the board are both mounted in a housing having a central though-hole for a camera field of view. The lens mixes light from the LEDs in the tangential direction and it also controls spread in the radial direction so there is uniform illumination over a target plane. Any individual point on the target plane receives illumination from over 25% of the light sources. The illuminator is thus particularly effective, compact, and suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Choice of lens and the spatial arrangement allows versatility. The illuminator design is easily scaleable by changing the size and spacing between the light sources.
