An optical lens (10), a camera module (100), and an electronic device (1000), where light that enters the optical lens (10) is axially folded by using a reflex optical element in the optical lens (10), so that the optical lens (10) can have a relatively long focal length to achieve a long-range photographing effect, and the optical lens (10) has a relatively short total track length. Therefore, when the optical lens (10) is used in the electronic device (1000), thinning of the electronic device (1000) is not affected. In addition, no prism is required to implement optical path folding in the optical lens (10).

An imaging lens system includes a first lens group, a first reflective portion including a plurality of reflective surfaces, and a second reflective portion including a plurality of reflective surfaces. The first lens group, the first reflective portion, and the second reflective portion are sequentially arranged from an object side, and 2.0 < TTL/f1 < 4.0 is satisfied, where TTL is a distance from an object-side surface of a first lens of the first lens group to an imaging plane, and f1 is a focal length of the first lens.

An optical lens system includes two lens elements which are, in order from an object side to an image side along an optical path: a first lens element and a second lens element. Each of the two lens elements has an object-side surface facing toward the object side and an image-side surface facing toward the image side. At least one of the object-side surface and the image-side surface of at least one lens element of the optical lens system is aspheric. A total number of the lens elements in the optical lens system is two.

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 optical system includes a first lens group including at least one lens, and a second lens group including at least one lens, wherein the first lens group and the second lens group are disposed in order from an object side, wherein each of the first lens group and the second lens group is configured to move in an optical axis direction to change a magnification between a wide-angle end and a telephoto end, and wherein G1F is a focal length of the first lens group, G2F is a focal length of the second lens group, and |G1F/G2F| has a value of between 0.5 and 1.

A camera device is provided, including a first lens unit, a second lens unit, a frame, a base, a plurality of suspension wires, and an electromagnetic driving mechanism. The frame surrounds the first lens unit and the second lens unit. The suspension wires are connected to the base and the frame. The electromagnetic driving mechanism can drive the frame to move along a first direction relative to the base.

A collimator includes a front lens sleeve, a clamping groove disposed on the front lens sleeve, a linking sleeve fastened on the clamping groove, a snapping groove disposed on the linking sleeve distal the front lens sleeve, a connection sleeve slidably connected to the snapping groove, a constraint sleeve disposed on the snapping groove, and a limit groove disposed on an inner surface of the constraint sleeve. The components cooperate with each other. The test chart is tilted relative to the optical axis of the lens and makes the test chart distributed at different distances along the axis. When using the camera to shoot the collimator, the clarity of different components reflects the relative focus position of the camera so as to detect the vehicle mounted camera.

Provided an imaging apparatus including a first optical device, a second optical device disposed such that light transmitted through the first optical device is incident on the second optical device, and a third optical device disposed such that light transmitted through the second optical device is incident on the third optical device, wherein at least one of the first optical device, the second optical device, and the third optical device includes a plurality of nanostructures, and heights of at least two nanostructures of the plurality of nanostructures are different from each other.
