    摘要: A device for generating a photometric stereo image and a color image of an object which is moved at a predetermined relative speed relative to the device. The device includes a lighting area and a lighting arrangement which is oriented to the lighting area. The lighting arrangement cyclically emits a lighting sequence in the lighting area. The lighting sequence has at least four lighting pulses each of which have a wavelength range and a lighting direction. At least three of the at least four lighting pulses have a different wavelength range, and at least two of the at least four lighting pulses have a different lighting direction and a same wavelength range.

    摘要: A dual-lens camera system includes a first lens, a second lens, an image sensor corresponding to a position of the first lens, and a reflecting assembly. The reflecting assembly includes a first reflecting member and a second reflecting member corresponding to a position of the second lens. The first reflecting member is movable between a first position at which an optical path from the first lens to the image sensor is blocked but an optical path from the second reflecting member to the image sensor is not blocked, and a second position at which the optical path from the first lens to the image sensor is not blocked but the optical path from the second reflective member to the image sensor is blocked. Only one image sensor is used in the dual-lens camera system, which saves cost and takes up less internal space of the electronic device.

    摘要: A wide-angle optical system includes a pair of front side lens units, an optical member, and a pair of rear side lens units. Each of the pair of front side lens units has a negative refractive power. The optical member has a pair of inclined surfaces and a bottom surface, and the pair of inclined surfaces is disposed such that a line of intersection is formed on an object side. Each of the pair of rear side lens units includes a positive lens, and in the pair of rear side lens units, two axes of rotational symmetry are parallel. With respect to two light rays, intersection and reflection occur at the optical member, and the intersection and the reflection occur after the two light rays are transmitted through the pair of inclined surfaces and before two light rays are transmitted through the bottom surface.
