Abstract: An optical element driving device includes a fixed body, a movable body, a driving part that converts vibration motion of a piezoelectric element into linear motion for driving the movable body, a drive control part that applies a drive signal to the driving part, a drive detection part that detects the drive state of the driving part, and a temperature measurement part that measures an ambient temperature. The drive control part determines whether or not a drive error of the driving part occurs from the information detected by the drive detection part. When the drive error occurs, drive control part compares an ambient temperature associated with the current drive frequency with the current ambient temperature measured by the temperature measurement part, corrects the drive frequency according to the comparison result, and stores the corrected drive frequency and the current ambient temperature in association with each other.

Abstract: A lens drive device has a support section for supporting a shake correction movable section relative to a shake correction stationary section. The support section has: an upper frame body; a plate-shaped first side support body for connecting the upper frame body and the shake correction stationary section; and a plate-shaped second side support body for connecting the upper frame body and the shake correction movable section. The first side support body and the second side support body are formed from an elastomeric material. As the shake correction movable section moves in a first direction, the first side support body is bent in the opposite directions at two Y-hinge sections extending in a second direction. As the shake correction movable section moves in the second direction, the second side support body is bent in the opposite directions at two X-hinge sections extending in the first direction.
