  • Publication number: 20230083141
    Abstract: A projection lens includes a first lens group, an aperture stop, a second lens group, a reflective optical element, and a refractive optical element arranged in sequence on a transmission path of an image beam. The first lens group, the aperture stop and the second lens group are sequentially arranged from a minified side to a magnified side along an optical axis. The reflective optical element and the refractive optical element are located on opposite sides of the optical axis. The image beam sequentially passes through the first lens group, the aperture stop and the second lens group from the minified side to be transmitted to the reflective optical element. The image beam is reflected by the reflective optical element to the refractive optical element, and passes through the refractive optical element to form a projection beam toward the magnified side.

  • Publication number: 20130249797
    Abstract: A method for executing a mouse function of electronic device and an electronic device thereof are provided. In the present method, an amount and a relative position of input signals are detected by a sensor module. Then, whether the amount and the relative position are respectively conformed to a predetermined value is determined. If the predetermined values are conformed, whether the input signal is conformed to a specific signal is determined when a variation of the relative position is occurred. Finally, a corresponding mouse function is executed according to a type of the variation if the variation is conformed to the specific signal. As a result, a mouse device is no longer needed for a user to accomplish a directional operation on the electronic device so as to prevent inconvenience of particularly carrying a mouse device.
