Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a camera module and an electronic device that can improve heat dissipation. A movable member has an image sensor on a front side and is movable in a direction along an imaging surface of the image sensor, the fixed member is fixed with a predetermined gap interposed between the fixed member and the movable member on a back side of the movable member, and at least one heat dissipating member is fixed to at least one of the fixed member and the movable member and is in contact with the other in the gap. The present disclosure is applicable to a camera module of a sensor-shift system.

Abstract: The present invention can promptly start the tracking control. According to an embodiment of the present invention, after making it possible to discriminate the groove G and land L by the initial drive for the objective lens, the servo control and brake control are executed under an optimum condition when the objective lens is initially driven to the inner circumference direction to be outer eccentricity where a spot Pt is easily pulled in so as to pull in the spot Pt and start tracking control, and, in case the TR control error is raised when pulling in the spot Pt in an eccentricity speed minimum region AR1 for the first time, assuming that the eccentricity speed minimum region AR1 is inner eccentricity, the spot Pt is pulled in at the next eccentricity speed minimum region AR2 in which the eccentricity direction becomes opposite and the tracking control is started.

Abstract: An optical disc device includes an optical pickup for irradiating optical discs with laser and detecting light reflected by the disc to generate received light signals, optical pickup driving means for driving the pickup radially, traverse signal generation means for generating traverse signals forming a pulse at the pickup's crossing a track by binarizing the received light signal based on binary threshold, movement control means for recognizing moving amount and speed of the pickup based on the traverse signal and controlling the optical pickup driving means based on the recognition result for the pickup's seeking to the target, and abnormality monitoring means for sending abnormality notices to the movement control means when pulse interval of the traverse signal exceeds the threshold, the movement control means, after temporarily stopping seek according to the abnormality notice, recognizes the temporary stop position for the optical pickup's seeking from the position to the target.

Abstract: An optical recording medium driving apparatus supporting an optical recording medium having multiple recording layers includes head means including a focusing mechanism and a spherical aberration correction mechanism; focusing control means for driving the focusing mechanism on the basis of a reflected light to perform focusing control on each recording layer; spherical aberration correcting means for driving the spherical aberration correction mechanism on the basis of a spherical aberration correction value to correct spherical aberration; and control means for controlling the focusing control means so as to set the spherical aberration correction value given by shifting the spherical aberration correction value appropriate for the midpoint between a target layer and a first recording layer by a desired value in the spherical aberration correcting means and controlling the focusing control means so as to perform the focusing control with the spherical aberration correction value after the shift being set.
