POP-OUT MOBILE CAMERAS AND ACTUATORS

Pop-out cameras brought to at least an extended operational position and a collapsed position by pop-out mechanisms that include shape-memory alloy (SMA) materials. A camera may comprise a lens including a plurality of lens elements, an image sensor, and a pop-out mechanism configured to control at...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Pop-out cameras brought to at least an extended operational position and a collapsed position by pop-out mechanisms that include shape-memory alloy (SMA) materials. A camera may comprise a lens including a plurality of lens elements, an image sensor, and a pop-out mechanism configured to control at least one air-gap between the lens elements or between a lens element and the image sensor to bring the camera to an operative pop-out state and to a collapsed state, wherein the pop-out mechanism includes at least one component made from a SMA material.
