The present disclosure relates to a camera module and an electronic apparatus, the camera module includes an imaging device and a lens including a lens group and a light guide member, wherein the light guide member includes a reflective surface and a curved incident surface formed by extending toward an outside of the light guide member, and wherein the reflective surface is used for reflecting external light incident from the incident surface to the imaging device.

The present disclosure provides a camera device including a deflected optical system and provided with an anti-shake mechanism without increasing a size of the camera device. The optical system includes a reflection member that deflects an optical axis, and it sequentially includes, from an object side, a reflection member, camera lens groups, and a camera element, to rotate the reflection member with an axis perpendicular to a plane defined by an optical axis of the camera lens groups and an optical axis at the object side reflected by the reflection member, and an axis parallel to the optical axis at the reflected object side being rotation axes, in such a manner that a hand-shake is corrected.

A compact folded projection system is described that includes a laser light source, a folded lens system comprising a lens stack including two or more refractive lenses and a light folding element (e.g., a prism), and a diffractive beam splitter that includes at least one diffractive surface. The light folding element provides a “folded” optical axis for the lens system to reduce the Z-height of the projection system, for example to within a range of 1.7 to 4 millimeters (e.g., 2 millimeters in some implementations). The laser light source emits light that is refracted by the lens stack to the folding element. The folding element redirects the light to the beam splitter which replicates the light into N×M duplications or tiles to thus generate a larger field of view (FOV) than the internal FOV of the lens system.

An imaging optical system includes three lens elements. The three lens elements, in order from an object side to an image side, are a first lens element having an object-side surface facing the object side and an image-side surface facing the image side, a second lens element having an object-side surface facing the object side and an image-side surface facing the image side, and a third lens element having an object-side surface facing the object side and an image-side surface facing the image side. The third lens element has positive refractive power, the imaging optical system has a total of three lens elements, and there are air gaps between paraxial regions of the first lens element, the second lens element and the third lens element.

Compact folded lens systems are described that may be used in small form factor cameras. Lens systems are described that may include five lens elements with refractive power, with a light folding element such as a prism, located between a first lens element on the object side of the lens system and a second lens element, that redirects the light refracted from the first lens element from a first axis onto a second axis on which the other lens elements and a photosensor are arranged. The lens systems may include an aperture stop located behind the front vertex of the lens system, for example at the first lens element, and an optional infrared filter, for example located between the last lens element and a photosensor.

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.

A device described here includes a housing and a multi-aperture imaging device. The multi-aperture imaging device includes an array of optical channels arranged next to one another and a beam-deflector for deflecting an optical path of the optical channels. In a first operating state of the device, the housing encloses a housing volume. In the first operating state of the device, the beam-deflector includes a first position within the housing volume. In a second operating state of the device, the beam-deflector includes a second position where the beam-deflector is arranged at least partly outside the housing volume.

A lens device includes at least one frame, at least one lens, at least one optical element and an image forming assembly. The lens is disposed in the frame and has an optical axis extending in a first direction. The optical element includes at least one non-planar surface. The light coming from an object side propagates through the lens and the non-planar surface to the image forming assembly. The lens is obtained from cutting an upper portion and a lower portion of a circular lens along planes in parallel to the first direction and a second direction.

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a lens assembly may include an image sensor, a first lens group disposed closest to an object side, the first lens group including multiple lenses and having negative power, a second lens group disposed to be moveable forward/backward along an optical axis direction, the second lens group having positive power, and a third lens group disposed to be moveable forward/backward along the optical axis direction, the third lens group including multiple lenses and having negative power, where the second or third lens group may move toward the object side so as to increase the focal length of the lens assembly, and the second lens group includes a lens having negative power and a lens having positive power and is disposed adjacent to the lens having negative power on the object side. In addition, various other embodiments may be possible.

The present disclosure provides an image capturing optical system comprising: a positive first lens element having a convex object-side surface; a negative second lens element having a concave object-side surface; a third lens element; a fourth lens element having a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface, the object-side surface and the image-side surface thereof being aspheric; a fifth lens element having a concave image-side surface concave, both of the object-side surface and the image-side surface being aspheric, at least one of the object-side surface and the image-side surface having at least one convex shape in an off-axis region thereof.
