Disclosed herein is an apparatus. The apparatus includes a first movable member and a second movable member. The first movable member includes a magnet. The first movable member is configured to be connected to a first housing section of a portable electronic device. The second member includes a first end and a second end. The first movable member is between the first end and the second end. The second member is configured to be connected to a second housing section of the portable electronic device. The apparatus is configured to move the second housing section in a first direction in response to a first movement of the first movable member. The apparatus is configured to move the second housing section in a second different direction in response to a second movement of the first movable member.

Methods, apparatuses and a computer program are provided. An apparatus comprises: one or more optical elements, a first actuator and a second actuator. The first actuator may be configured to drive the one or more optical elements from a rest position across a first displacement, and configured to drive the one or more optical elements from the rest position across a second displacement. The second actuator may be configured to assist the first actuator in controlling movement of the one or more optical elements across a portion, and not all, of the first displacement, and configured to assist the first actuator in controlling movement of the one or more optical elements in the second direction across a portion, and not all, of the second displacement. The first and second actuators may be biased such that, when no electrical power is supplied to the first and second actuators, they bring the one or more optical elements to a rest position from which the one or more optical elements are driven.

Disclosed herein is an apparatus. The apparatus includes a housing, a first magnet member, a lens holder, and a second magnet member. The first magnet member is connected to the housing. The first magnet member includes a first surface. The lens holder is in the housing. The lens holder includes a lens. The second magnet member is connected to the lens holder. The second magnet member includes a second surface. The second surface is opposite the first surface of the first magnet member. The second magnet member is configured to move in a direction substantially normal to the first surface of the first magnet member when a magnetic force is generated between the first magnet member and the second magnet member.

A handheld electronic device has a central part comprising a display and two pivotable elements. The pivotable elements are pivotably linked to the central part such that the pivotable elements are moveable between a compacted configuration and an extended configuration. Both of the pivotable elements are stacked on the central part and adjacent to each other when in the compacted configuration, and extend outward from the central part in the extended configuration. The pivotable elements each have a first surface accessible to a user in the compacted configuration. A first set of keys is disposed on the first surfaces. The pivotable elements each also have a second surface that is accessible to the user in the extended configuration but not in the compacted configuration. A second set of keys is disposed on the second surfaces.

The invention relates to an sliding mechanism, and in particular an electronic device sliding mechanism. The invention provides an electronic device sliding mechanism comprising a first part and a second part, the first and second parts being slidably movable relative to one another between a first configuration and a second configuration; a bias assembly arranged to bias the first and second parts towards the first configuration; an actuating mechanism arrangeable to act against the bias of the bias assembly, the actuating mechanism including a resilient element and a user-operable element, the actuating mechanism being arranged to cause deformation of the resilient element by acting against the resilience of the resilient element, to store resilient energy therein upon actuation of the user-operable element, the sliding mechanism being arranged such that, upon actuation of the user-operable element, the resilient element is deformed to store increased levels of resilient energy, the level of stored resilient energy increasing to a level to act against the bias of the bias assembly to move the first and second parts away from the first configuration to the second configuration.
摘要:
An apparatus comprising: a first optical member configured to receive light from a flash unit, in a first direction, to refract the received light, and to output the refracted light in a second direction, different to the first direction; and a first actuator configured to move the first optical member between a first position in which light from the flash unit is not substantially refracted, and a second position in which light from the flash unit is refracted by the first optical member in the second direction.
