An imaging lens module with auto focus function includes an imaging lens assembly, an electromagnetic driving component assembly and a lens carrier. The imaging lens assembly has an optical axis. The electromagnetic driving component assembly drives the imaging lens assembly to move in a direction parallel to the optical axis by a Lorentz force. The imaging lens assembly is mounted to the lens carrier such that the imaging lens assembly can be wholly driven by the Lorentz force. The lens carrier includes an object-side part, a mounting structure and a plurality of plate portions. The object-side part includes a tip-end minimal aperture configured for light to travel through; and a tapered surface which surrounds an area tapered off from image side to object side. The mounting structure and the plate portions are configured for at least a part of the electromagnetic driving component assembly to be mounted thereto.

The invention provides an optical module and a projection apparatus. The optical module includes a base, a first frame, an optical element, and at least one first driving assembly. The first frame is disposed in the base and includes a first body and a pair of first shaft portions, the first shaft portion extending outward from the first body, and the first body including a pair of first inner folded edges. The optical element is disposed between the pair of first inner folded edges. The first driving assembly and the optical element abut against two opposite sides of one of the first inner folded edges, respectively, and the first driving assembly is configured to drive the first body to swing relative to the base by taking the first shaft portion as a rotating shaft.

A method for aligning a camera lens with a light source is provided. The method is used in an aligning system. The aligning system includes an alignment element, a reference camera and a fixture. Firstly, the reference camera shoots a reference chart on the alignment element. Then, the light source is placed on the fixture. The light source illuminates the alignment element to generate an illumination result. The reference camera shoots the illumination result. If the illumination result does not comply with a preset specification represented by the reference chart, the fixture adjusts the light source. Then, the camera lens is placed on the fixture. Then, the camera lens shoots the reference chart on the alignment element to acquire a shooting result. If the shooting result does not comply with the preset specification, the fixture adjusts the camera lens.

An optical device includes: a base including a mounting surface; and an optical component including an optical element part, a support part including a first adhered surface bonded to the mounting surface via a photocurable first adhesive, the support part being configured to support the optical element part, and an optical opening part provided adjacent to the first adhered surface, the optical opening part allowing light for curing the first adhesive to pass through.

A system includes a view screen with polarized output. The view screen may include a projected view screen or writing-surface view screen. A window capable of blocking the polarized output at least in part cloaks the view screen to frustrate viewing of the view screen through the window. In some cases, the window includes an array of panels capable of blocking multiple polarizations. The array may disrupt multiple different polarized view screen outputs while maintaining transparency to unpolarized light. In some cases, the window capable of blocking polarized output may be paired with view screen cover that converts view screen output in an unblocked polarization to one of the one or more polarizations blocked by the window.
