Optical device including pinhole array aperture and related methods
An optical device may include a pinhole array layer having pinhole array apertures therein. The pinhole array layer may have a first side to be directed toward incoming electromagnetic (E/M) radiation, and a second side opposite the first side. The optical device may also include image sensors. Each image sensor may include image sensing pixels adjacent the second side of the pinhole array layer. The optical device may also include mirrors. Each mirror may be associated with a respective image sensor and respective pinhole array aperture defining a camera. Each mirror may reflect incoming E/M radiation passing through the respective pinhole array aperture to the respective image sensor. A respective baffle may be between adjacent cameras.
Parallel high dynamic exposure range sensor
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are presented for taking a combination of images taken synchronous in time with one another. According to one example, the present disclosure proposes one or more sensor arrays, each of which comprises multiple pixel sensors arranged to capture image data responsive to light exposure. Light is incident on the respective sensor arrays during substantially synchronous exposures. The one or more sensor arrays are configured such that the image data captured by the respective sensor arrays during the synchronous exposure differ in at least one of a luminance output or a color profile from one another.
LIGHT SHADING PLATE AND LENS MODULE INCLUDING THE SAME
The present disclosure relate to the field of optical imaging technologies, and provides a light shading plate and a lens module including the same. The light shading plate includes: a body for fixedly shading light; and a light shading arm for shading light. The body includes an object-side surface close to an object side, an image side surface opposite to the object-side surface, and an inner peripheral surface connecting the object-side surface with the image-side surface and being close to an optical axis. The light shading arm extends from the inner peripheral surface in a direction facing towards an optical axis. The light shading plate and the lens module including the light shading plate provided by the present disclosure can prevent stray light and light leakage, reduce production cost, and improve optical performance and stability of the lens module.
ACHROMATIC FOLDED OPTICAL SYSTEM
An optical lens assembly includes an optical axis and two optical lenses having at least one curved major surface, a partial reflector disposed on a first major surface of the lens assembly, and a reflective polarizer disposed on a second major surface. For each of first and second visible wavelengths, and for unpolarized collimated light incident on the assembly from the viewer-side, the assembly focuses the incident light on the display-side, forming a first focused incident light at an average spacing T1 from the optical axis after the light passes through the assembly a first time, and a second focused incident light at an average spacing T2 from the optical axis after the light passes through the assembly three times, such that due to the difference between the first and second wavelengths, the first and second focused incident lights have respective lateral chromatic aberrations D1 and D2, D2/T2<D1/T1.

Image Obtaining Method and Terminal Device
Embodiments of this application provide an image obtaining method and a terminal device. When the terminal device moves, a motion sensor collects motion data of the terminal device, and sends the motion data to an optical image stabilization OIS controller and an electronic image stabilization EIS controller, where the terminal device includes the motion sensor, the OIS controller, the EIS controller, and an image sensor. The OIS controller controls, based on the motion data, a lens of the terminal device to move. The image sensor collects an image sequence. The EIS controller performs, by using movement information of the lens and the motion data, jitter compensation on the image sequence collected by the image sensor, so that stability of an obtained image can be improved.
Solid state imaging device, camera module and electronic device
There is provided a solid state imaging device. A rib is arranged on a frame part to be joined to a board on which an image sensor is mounted, the rib abutting on the board at an abutting position next to a periphery of the image sensor.
Light emitting device and image surveillance apparatus thereof
A light emitting device includes a casing, a lighting module, and a lens module. The lighting module is disposed in the casing for providing light and includes first and second light sources. The lens module faces the lighting module and includes a first lens aligned with the first light source, a second lens aligned with the second light source, a sliding frame, and a driving motor. The sliding frame is fixed to the first lens and has a thread portion. The driving motor has a screw rod for engaging with the thread portion, to make the sliding frame movable along the screw rod. The driving motor rotates the screw rod to make the thread portion drive the first and second lenses close to or away from the first and second light sources. Accordingly, the present invention reduces the manufacturing cost of the light emitting device and simplifies its mechanical design.
