Original Abstract Submitted
A camera module may include a housing, a first optical assembly, a second optical assembly, a carrier, and an actuator. The first and second optical assemblies may be positioned within the camera module to receive light in opposite directions. The carrier may be positioned within the housing and include a first portion coupled to a first component of the first optical assembly and a second portion coupled to a second component of the second optical assembly. An actuator may be configured to simultaneously generate relative movement (i) between the first lens module and the first image sensor; and (ii) between the second lens module and the second image sensor.
