According to one embodiment, an electronic device includes a liquid crystal panel and a camera. The liquid crystal panel includes a display area and an incident light control area. The camera overlaps the incident light control area. The incident light control area includes a first annular light-shielding portion and a second annular light-shielding portion formed inside the first annular light-shielding portion.

New augmented reality display systems are provided, some of which incorporate “shifted-reality” techniques. In some embodiments, an augmented reality display system includes a matrix of light-augmenting pixels within a variable-transmission, semi-transparent screen (e.g., an augmented reality headset, comprising a semi-transparent screen) and creates redirected, attenuated and augmented light and shading to form and alter virtual objects. In some embodiments, a plurality of angle-alterable, shiftable sources (e.g., light-focusing and -directing pixels), aids in creating virtual objects of greater realism than conventional 3D imaging methods, and aids in reducing the appearance of other objects or conditions. In some aspects, existing images and objects may be shifted in perspective for an observer, and enhanced and overlaid with effects and demonstrative information related to them and a surrounding environment. In other aspects, the system builds and accesses an object structure and materials library and object inventory, enriching a user's augmented reality experience.

A lens hood includes: a casing provided with a through-hole; first and second rotary frames which are arranged side by side in an opening direction of the through-hole and rotate in opposite directions in conjunction with each other; and first and second lens covers which approach or separate from each other to open and close the through-hole. The first lens cover includes a first connection portion that is provided on one end side and rotatably connected to the first rotary frame, and a second connection portion that is provided on the other end side and rotatably connected to the second rotary frame. The second lens cover includes a third connection portion that is provided on one end side and rotatably connected to the second rotary frame and a fourth connection portion that is provided on the other end side and rotatably connected to the first rotary frame.

Provided is a lens module, including a lens barrel, a lens group and a light-shading plate. The lens group at least comprises a first lens and a second lens. The light-shading plate is sandwiched between the first lens and the second lens. The first lens includes a first optical portion, and a first peripheral portion, which includes a first planar surface extending from an outer edge of the first peripheral portion, a recess portion connected to the first planar surface, and a second planar surface connected to the recess portion. The light-shading plate includes a third planar surface partially attached to the first planar surface, a protruding portion protruding from the third planar surface, and a fourth planar surface extending from the protruding portion towards the optical axis. The protruding portion is attached to the recess portion, and the second planar surface and the fourth planar surface are spaced apart.

An optical element driving mechanism is provided, including a fixed part, a movable part and a driving assembly. The fixed part has a main axis, includes an outer frame and a base. The outer frame has a top surface and a sidewall. The top surface intersects the main axis. The sidewall extends from the edge of the top surface along the main axis. The base includes a base plate intersecting the main axis and securely connected to the outer frame. The movable part moves relative to the fixed part, and connects to an optical element having an optical axis. The driving assembly drives the movable part to move relative to the fixed part. The main axis is not parallel to the optical axis.

An LCD panel includes an image capture device having an aperture, thin-film transistor layer, and an electronic ink reservoir. The thin-film transistor layer includes a first portion to provide an image on the LCD panel, a second portion, and a third portion. The second portion corresponds with the aperture, and the third portion immediately surrounds the second portion. The electronic ink reservoir is located proximate to the second and third portions of the thin-film transistor layer, and includes an electronic ink charged with a first charge state. The LCD panel directs the second portion of the thin-film transistor layer to provide a first electrical stimulus in a second charge state opposite to the first charge state to attract the electronic ink to the aperture to form a shutter for the image capture device and to block the aperture.

The present disclosure provides a lens module. The lens module includes a lens barrel provided with a light through hole and defining a receiving space; a lens group having a plurality of lenses and disposed in the receiving space; and a pressing ring disposed on an image side of the lens group. The plurality of lenses has a common optical axis. The lens barrel includes an inner side surface facing the optical axis. The inner side surface is provided with a plurality of extinction structures surrounding both the pressing ring and a lens of the plurality of lenses closest to the image side. The plurality of extinction structures is arranged in sequence in a direction from the object side towards the image side. Each of the plurality of extinction structures extends from the inner side surface towards the optical axis and has a triangular cross section.

A camera module, which is mounted on an inside of a front windshield of a vehicle and to image an external environment of the vehicle, includes a lens unit and an imager to image the external environment by forming an optical image, which is from the external environment through the lens unit.

An anamorphic optical assembly includes a housing defining an anamorphic aperture, a hood, an optional sleeve, a bayonet coupling interface, and a catch mechanism. The bayonet coupling interface is configured for coupling the anamorphic optical assembly to a lens attachment interface that is coupled to or integral with the mobile electronic device or a protective case coupled thereto.

A camera module, which is mounted on an inside of a front windshield of a vehicle and configured to image an external environment of the vehicle, includes multiple lens units on which an optical image of the external environment is incident, individually, and an imaging system to generate an outside image of the external environment by imaging through each of the lens units, individually.
