An electronic device includes a housing, a display, at least part of which is included in the housing, a sliding part that includes an opening exposed to an outside area and that slides relative to the housing, and a camera module that is disposed in the opening and that rotates relative to the sliding part. The camera module is configured to rotate to face a first direction when the sliding part slides to a first position relative to the housing and to rotate to face a second direction different from the first direction when the sliding part slides to a second position relative to the housing.

A single camera module able to swivel to capture images in front of and behind an electronic device includes a housing, a camera module, and a turnover element. The turnover element includes a support plate and a connecting portion. The housing is arranged on the support plate, thus forming a receiving space together with the support plate. The camera assembly is received in the receiving space. The connecting portion is arranged on the support plate and located on an outside of the housing. The disclosure further provides an electronic device including the camera module.

A mobile device includes a camera module that can alternate between a retracted state and an extended state. In the retracted state, the camera module is retracted into a recess in a housing of the mobile device. In the extended state, the camera module extends from the housing. While in the extended state, one or more cameras of the camera module capture images. A processor of the mobile device stitches the images into a panoramic image that optionally provides a 360 degree view. While in the extended state, the camera module may optionally rotate or fold.

An electronic device with a rotatable camera, a control method, and a control apparatus are provided. The electronic device with the rotatable camera includes a camera assembly, a drive assembly, a rotating assembly, a controller, and a housing, where the housing is a polyhedron, one face of the polyhedron is provided with a groove, the groove extends to an edge of the face, the controller is electrically connected to the drive assembly, and is configured to control the drive assembly to drive the rotating assembly to rotate, and the camera assembly is provided in the groove, is attached to the rotating assembly, and is rotatable around the edge.

Disclosed are a mobile terminal and controlling method thereof. The present invention includes a sensing unit, a camera, a display unit, and a controller configured to launch a camera application, wherein the controller is further configured to execute a splice mode on the camera application, wherein the splice mode is a mode for outputting a preview image region and a splice region to the display unit by partitioning, and wherein the controller is further configured to output a preview image currently shot through the camera to the preview image region and recommend a splice image outputted to the splice region based on the outputted preview image.

The present disclosure discloses a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal includes a housing, a display screen, a functional module and a rotating member, the housing defines a recess and a first engaging structure; the display screen is positioned in the housing; the rotating member is rotatably coupled to the housing, wherein the functional module is mounted on the rotating member, the rotating member comprises a second engaging structure cooperated with the first engaging structure, one of the first engaging structure and the second engaging structure is a curved slot communicated with the recess, the other one of the first engaging structure and the second engaging structure is a slider slidably engaged in the curved slot thereby enabling the rotating member to rotate according to an axis of the curved slot, such that the functional module is positioned in the recess or exposed from the housing.

A camera module includes a camera assembly, a first driving assembly, and a second driving assembly. The second driving assembly is configured to drive the camera assembly and the first driving assembly to move in a first direction. The first driving assembly is configured to drive the camera assembly to rotate. The first driving assembly includes a first electric motor, a first power output element, and a first transmission drivingly connecting the first electric motor to the first power output element. The camera assembly is mounted to the first power output element.

A mobile terminal includes a support assembly, a display screen, and a movable base. The support assembly includes a first housing, a second housing, and a bendable member. The first housing defines a first recess. The second housing defines a second recess. The bendable member is connected between the first housing and the second housing and has a capacity of being unbent or bent to unfold or fold the support assembly. The movable base is movably mounted in the first recess. The movable base is able to carry the camera to move out or retract into the first recess with respect to the first circumferential side surface, and the second recess is configured to accommodate a part of the movable base.

An electronic device includes a first display screen assembly having a first display portion; a second display screen assembly having a second display portion, the second display screen assembly being coupled with the first display screen assembly and being movable between a first position and a second position, in which the first display screen assembly and the second display screen assembly are not overlapped in a front-rear direction when the second display screen assembly moves between the first position and the second position; and a camera provided to the second display screen assembly and located at a rear side of the second display portion, in which the camera moves along with the movement of the second display screen assembly between the first position and the second position to capture images of different regions.

A single camera module able to swivel to capture images in front of and behind an electronic device includes a housing, a camera module, and a turnover element. The turnover element includes a support plate and a connecting portion. The housing is arranged on the support plate, thus forming a receiving space together with the support plate. The camera assembly is received in the receiving space. The connecting portion is arranged on the support plate and located on an outside of the housing. The disclosure further provides an electronic device including the camera module.
