  • Patent number: 7453617
    Abstract: A scanning device includes a mirror unit formed on a substrate so as to be pivotable centering around one axis for adjusting the direction of reflected light; a support frame formed at one surface of the mirror unit for preventing dynamic deflection of the mirror unit and supporting the mirror unit; and a driving unit provided on the substrate and driving the mirror unit. Thus, a dynamic deflection phenomenon does not occur when the mirror unit is pivoted centering around the pivoting axis. Accordingly, stable operation is possible and the angle of rotation of the mirror unit can be accurately adjusted, so that the scanning device can be effectively used in a high-speed precision scanning system.

  • Publication number: 20080225419
    Abstract: A varifocal mirror and a camera module comprising the same are disclosed. The varifocal mirror comprises a substrate, a thin film having a circumference supported by the substrate and a variable radius of curvature, and a reflective plane attached to the thin film to reflect light. The reflective plane has a radius of curvature varying in response to variation in the radius of curvature of the thin film. The camera module embodies focus and optical zoom functions via actuation of the varifocal mirror instead of using an electromagnetic actuator, a step motor and the like when adjusting positions of lens units, significantly reducing a volume of the overall system. With this structure, the camera module can be applied to various portable digital assistances requiring a minimized camera module, such as PDAs, mobile phones and the like.
