Camera Module and Electronic Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17780899 titled 'Camera Module and Electronic Device
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a camera system that includes a camera, camera lens, image sensor, and a shape memory alloy (SMA) motor stacked within a frame. The SMA motor is positioned on the outer side of the camera lens, and the image sensor is attached to the SMA motor. The SMA motor is designed to move the image sensor in a direction perpendicular to the camera lens's optical axis. This camera system can be used in electronic devices.
- The camera system includes a camera, camera lens, image sensor, and SMA motor.
- The SMA motor is located on the outer side of the camera lens.
- The image sensor is positioned between the lens and the SMA motor and is securely attached to the SMA motor.
- The SMA motor is capable of moving the image sensor on a plane that is perpendicular to the camera lens's optical axis.
- This camera system can be integrated into electronic devices.
Potential Applications
- Mobile phones and smartphones
- Digital cameras
- Surveillance systems
- Drones and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)
- Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) devices
Problems Solved
- Enables image sensor movement in a direction perpendicular to the camera lens's optical axis.
- Provides flexibility in capturing images from different angles and perspectives.
- Allows for image stabilization and compensation for camera shake.
- Enhances the functionality and versatility of cameras in various electronic devices.
Benefits

Original Abstract Submitted
A camera, camera lens, image sensor, and a shape memory alloy (SMA) motor are stacked within a frame. The SMA motor is located on an out-light side of the camera lens. The image sensor is located between the lens and the SMA motor and is fastened to the SMA motor. The SMA motor is configured to actuate the image sensor to shift on a plane perpendicular to an optical axis of the camera lens. The camera may be associated with an electronic device.
