LENS ASSEMBLY AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18368090 titled 'LENS ASSEMBLY AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic device with a camera assembly that includes a lens assembly with at least four lenses, an image sensor, and at least one reflective member that refracts or reflects light at least twice. One of the lenses has an aspherical surface on both the object-side and image-side surfaces, which are convex. The design satisfies conditional equations relating to back focal length, effective focal length, and field-of-view.

  • The camera assembly includes a lens assembly with at least four lenses.
  • At least one lens has an aspherical surface on both the object-side and image-side surfaces.
  • The lens surfaces are convex.
  • The design satisfies conditional equations related to back focal length, effective focal length, and field-of-view.

Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device and a camera assembly are disclosed. The electronic device may include the camera assembly, which in turn may include a lens assembly having at least four lenses, an image sensor, and at least one reflective member that refracts or reflects incident light at least twice, wherein at least one surface of an object-side surface and an image-side surface of a first lens from an object side among the at least four lenses is formed as an aspherical surface, wherein the object-side surface and the image-side surface are formed to be convex, wherein various conditional equations stipulation relationships between back focal length (BFL), effective focal length (EFL) and field-of-view (FOV) are satisfied.
