20120270598 | 3D Camera Phone - A 3D camera or camera phone capable of producing 3D or stereoscopic images includes a normal mode for creating 3D images of relatively far away objects and a macro mode for creating 3D images of relatively close objects. In one embodiment, the invention is a 3D camera system comprising first and second camera modules. The second camera module is movable relative to the first camera module between a first imaging position wherein the optical axes of the first and second camera modules are parallel and facing in the same direction, and a second imaging position wherein the optical axes of the first and second camera modules are converging. | 10-25-2012 |
