  • Publication number: 20210271150
    Abstract: A wearable device includes: a body, a driving assembly, and a camera assembly. The body includes a working surface and a side wall connected to an edge of the working surface. The driving assembly is connected to the body and includes an adjusting component and a supporting component that protrude from the side wall. The adjusting component and the supporting component are rotatable relative to each other in a plane perpendicular to the working surface. The camera assembly includes a lens connected to the adjusting component and an image sensor connected to the supporting component. The relative rotation of the adjusting component and the supporting component drives the lens to move linearly in a direction perpendicular to a photosensitive surface of the image sensor.
