Provided is a prism driving device. The prism driving device includes a housing assembly, a prism holder disposed on the housing assembly in an angle adjustable manner, and an electromagnetic driving assembly. The electromagnetic driving assembly includes a magnet portion and a coil portion disposed opposite the magnet portion, where one of the magnet portion or the coil portion is disposed on the prism holder, the other one is disposed on the housing assembly, and the electromagnetic driving assembly is configured to adjust a tilt angle of the prism holder. One of the housing assembly or the prism holder is provided with a support protrusion and the other is provided with a groove, and at least a portion of the support protrusion is magnetically sucked into the groove.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, an optical member driving device is provided. The device includes a fixed portion, a pivoting portion with a holding portion for holding the optical member, a pivot shaft, a driving portion, and a pivot suppressing portion. The pivot suppressing portion has a first magnet at the pivoting portion, and a second magnet at the fixed portion. The first magnet and the second magnet are disposed in such a manner that the same magnetic poles face each other in the pivoting direction.

The present embodiment relates to a camera device comprising: an actuating unit including a holder and a reflection member arranged in the holder; a fixed unit spaced from the actuating unit; an SMA member for moving the actuating unit with respect to the fixed unit; and an elastic member electrically connected with the SMA member, wherein, when a current is applied to the SMA member, the SMA member tilts the actuating unit on the basis of a first axis and a second axis that is perpendicular to the first axis.

Disclosed, in one embodiment of the present invention, is a camera actuator comprising: a housing; a mover disposed in the housing and comprising an optical member and a holder having the optical member disposed therein; a tilting guide unit for guiding the tilting of the mover, and a drive unit disposed in the housing so as to drive the mover, wherein the holder comprises a receiving groove in which the optical member is disposed, and a groove is formed in the bottom surface of the receiving groove.

A prism apparatus, and a camera and an image display apparatus including the same are disclosed. The prism apparatus includes: a first prism configured to reflect input light toward a first reflected direction, a first actuator configured to change an angle of the first prism about a first rotation axis to change the first reflected direction based on a first control signal, a second prism configured to reflect the light reflected from the first prism toward a second reflected direction, and a second actuator configured to change an angle of the second prism about a second rotation axis to change the second reflected direction based on a second control signal.

Folded digital camera comprising a lens having a lens optical axis, an image sensor and first and second optical path folding elements (OPFEs), in which the second OPFE is closest to the image sensor, wherein the lens is operative to move in a first direction substantially parallel to the lens optical axis and in a second direction substantially perpendicular to first and second optical paths, wherein the second OPFE is operative to move in the first direction, and wherein the combined motion of the lens and of the second OPFE is operative to provide focus and to compensate for tilts of the camera around the first and second directions.

Systems and methods for correcting point of view (POV) aberrations in scanning folded cameras and multi-cameras including such scanning folded cameras. In a Tele folded camera that includes an optical path folding element (OPFE) and an image sensor, the OPFE is tilted in one or two directions to direct the Tele folded camera towards a POV of a scene, a Tele image or a stream of Tele images is captured from the POV, the Tele image having POV aberrations and the POV aberrations are digitally corrected to obtain an aberration-corrected image or stream of images.

Various embodiments include a camera with a voice coil motor (VCM) actuator assembly to provide autofocus (AF) and/or optical image stabilization (OIS) movement. The VCM actuator assembly is configured to move an image sensor of the camera in three dimensions (e.g. X, Y, and Z) to provide the AF and/or OIS movements. The VCM actuator assembly is asymmetrical and includes an at least partially open side that allows an optical assembly of the camera to pass through the open side of the VCM actuator. In some embodiments, the optical assembly is part of a folded optics arrangement of the camera that includes one or more prisms/and or lenses.

A zoom lens, a camera module, and an electronic device are provided. A first control end and a second control end of the zoom lens respectively control a second lens assembly and a third lens assembly to move for zooming; a third control end and a fourth control end control, under a first target focal length, the third lens assembly to move for focusing, and control, under a second target focal length, the third lens assembly to move for focusing, and the first target focal length is different from the second target focal length.
