Abstract:
A reflection type imaging apparatus includes a deflector that reflects light incident from an outside; a reflecting mirror that reflects the light reflected by the deflector in a direction parallel to a direction in which the light is incident on the deflector; an image sensor that is disposed below the reflecting mirror and arranged perpendicular to the direction in which the light is incident on the deflector, wherein the light reflected by the reflecting mirror is focused on the image sensor; and a stray light blocking member disposed at one side of the image sensor facing the deflector, the stray light blocking member configured to block stray light rays from the deflector from being directly incident on the image sensor.
Abstract:
A camera and a lens module are provided. The camera includes a lens module and an image sensor. The lens module includes a lens unit including a protrusion, the lens unit being configured to move in a direction of an optical axis of the camera. The lens module further includes a movement guide including an inclination part, the protrusion being configured to slide along the inclination part while the lens unit moves in the direction of the optical axis. The lens module further includes a driver configured to drive the lens unit in the direction of the optical axis, and a pre-loader configured to provide a pre-load between the lens unit and the movement guide in the direction of the optical axis.
Abstract:
An electronic device and a method of operating the electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes an imaging device configured to obtain an image of a subject, a light source including light-emitting elements configured to emit light in different directions, and a controller configured to determine a position of the subject and a distance to the subject in the image, and control a luminance of the light-emitting elements based on the position of the subject and the distance to the subject.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a bifocal lens having two focal distances to enable near image capturing and far image capturing and capable of being manufactured to have a thin profile, and an imaging device including same. A bifocal lens according to disclosed embodiments may include: a refractive optical system having at least one refractive lens element and having a first focal distance; and a reflective optical system having multiple reflective surfaces and having a second focal distance that is different from the first focal distance. Because the refractive optical system and the reflective optical system have mutually different focal distances, the bifocal lens according to an embodiment may be capable of both near image capturing and far image capturing.
