CAMERA MODULE AND CAMERA MODULE ASSEMBLY INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240103254 titled 'CAMERA MODULE AND CAMERA MODULE ASSEMBLY INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The camera module described in the patent application includes a first reflective member, a telephoto lens, a second reflective member, and a sensor support member. The second reflective member reflects light from the first reflective surface towards the image sensor, which is supported by the sensor support member.
- First reflective member with a reflective surface
- Telephoto lens positioned in a first direction from the first reflective surface
- Second reflective member positioned in a second direction intersecting the first direction
- Sensor support member supporting the image sensor
- Second reflective surface on the second reflective member reflecting light towards the sensor support member
- Sensor support member spaced from the second reflective surface in a third direction intersecting the first and second directions
Potential Applications
This technology could be used in:
- Smartphone cameras
- Surveillance cameras
- Automotive cameras
Problems Solved
- Improved image quality
- Reduction in size of camera modules
- Enhanced zoom capabilities
Benefits
- Higher resolution images
- Compact design
- Better optical performance
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized for:
- Mobile phone manufacturers
- Security system companies
- Automotive industry
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of reflective surfaces in camera modules to redirect light towards the image sensor for improved image quality.
