Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed herein include techniques for adjusting the lateral position of a default field of view of a camera. The camera may change the lateral position of its field of view by creating relative movement between an image sensor and a lens of the camera, and may maintain the camera's field of view to the default field of view when the camera is stationary. In some embodiments, the lateral position may be set using orientation information associated with the camera. In other embodiments, the lateral position may be set using position information associated with a target object.

Abstract: Camera modules and associated electronic devices and systems are described. A camera module may include a set of housing elements that at least partially defines an interior cavity, a set of lens elements, an image sensor positioned within the interior cavity to receive light through the set of lens elements, and a substrate assembly. The substrate assembly may include a set of rigid substrates, a first set of electrical contacts positioned on a first surface of the set of rigid substrates, and a second set of electrical contacts positioned on a second surface of the set of rigid substrates. The substrate assembly may be positioned such that a first portion of the substrate assembly is positioned inside the interior cavity and a second portion of the substrate assembly extends outside of the interior cavity.
