ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING REFLECTOR AND LENS ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18152592 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING REFLECTOR AND LENS ASSEMBLY
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device with a camera module that includes a lens assembly, a reflector, a Hall sensor, and memory for storing correction values. The device also has a processor for performing shading correction on captured images.
- The electronic device includes a camera module with a lens assembly, a reflector, a Hall sensor, and memory for storing correction values.
- The processor in the device is responsible for performing shading correction on captured images.
- The camera module captures an image frame while the Hall sensor identifies the position of the reflector.
- The processor retrieves correction values from memory to correct shading caused by the lens assembly and the reflector.
- Shading correction is applied to the captured image frame based on the retrieved correction values.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in various electronic devices with cameras, such as smartphones, tablets, and digital cameras.
- It can improve the image quality by correcting shading caused by the lens assembly and reflector.
Problems Solved
- Shading caused by the lens assembly and reflector can result in distorted or unevenly lit images.
- This technology solves the problem of shading by applying correction values to captured images, resulting in improved image quality.
Benefits
- The electronic device can capture high-quality images with corrected shading.
- Users can enjoy better image clarity and accuracy.
- The technology enhances the overall user experience with electronic devices that have cameras.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device of the disclosure may include a camera module including a lens assembly, a reflector for changing a field of view, a Hall sensor for identifying a position of the reflector, and a first memory for storing a first correction value for correcting shading by the lens assembly, a second memory for storing reflector shading correction, and a processor. The processor may obtain a first image frame by driving the camera module, obtain first Hall data corresponding to the position of the reflector through the Hall sensor while the first image frame is obtained through the camera module, obtain the first correction value from the first memory, obtain a second correction value corresponding to the first Hall data among the reflector shading correction values from the second memory, and perform shading correction on the first image frame based on the first correction value and the second correction value.
