Pan-Tilt-Zoom Module, Camera Module, and Electronic Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18263275 titled 'Pan-Tilt-Zoom Module, Camera Module, and Electronic Device
Simplified Explanation
The pan-tilt-zoom device described in the patent application includes a housing, a carrier, an image sensor, and a shape memory alloy (SMA) motor. The device is designed to implement optical image stabilization by allowing the carrier to tilt in any direction around.
- Housing with accommodating cavity and first opening
- Carrier with lens mounting hole
- Image sensor located in the accommodating cavity
- SMA motor to drive the carrier for tilting
Potential Applications
The technology can be used in surveillance systems, video conferencing cameras, and other devices requiring precise and stable image capture.
Problems Solved
The device solves the problem of shaky or unstable images by providing optical image stabilization through the tilting mechanism driven by the SMA motor.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved image quality, enhanced video recording capabilities, and increased accuracy in capturing moving objects.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Optical Image Stabilization Technology for Surveillance Cameras"
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include existing pan-tilt-zoom devices with image stabilization features, such as those used in professional photography equipment or security cameras.
What is the specific design of the carrier in the device?
The carrier in the device is designed with a lens mounting hole, allowing for the attachment of different lenses for various imaging purposes.
How does the SMA motor contribute to the functionality of the device?
The SMA motor is responsible for driving the carrier to tilt in any direction, enabling optical image stabilization by adjusting the position of the image sensor.
Original Abstract Submitted
A pan-tilt-zoom device includes a housing, a carrier, an image sensor, and a shape memory alloy (SMA) motor. An accommodating cavity is formed in the housing, and a first opening in communication with the accommodating cavity is provided on the housing. The carrier is located in the accommodating cavity, the carrier has a lens mounting hole, and an opening at one end of the lens mounting hole faces the first opening. The image sensor is located in the accommodating cavity and is disposed on a side that is of the carrier and that is away from the first opening, and a photosensitive surface of the image sensor faces an opening at the other end of the lens mounting hole. The SMA motor is configured to drive the carrier to tilt in the accommodating cavity along with the image sensor in any direction around, to implement optical image stabilization.
