    Abstract: A zoom lens includes: n lenses arranged along a direction of an optical axis; a diaphragm arranged parallel to the lenses; and an imaging surface arranged at an end of the optical axis and parallel to the n lenses. The n lenses include m variable curvature lenses and n-m aspheric lenses, driving devices are provided at a top end and a bottom end of each curvature lens, where n and m are positive integer, n?2, and 1?m?n. An incident angle is obtained by changing power of the driving devices corresponding to each variable curvature lens and changing a radius of curvature of the curvature lens. When incident light corresponding to an object is received, the incident light is capable of passing through the n lenses under a light-confining effect of the diaphragm and being reflected to the imaging surface at the incident angle for imaging.

  • Publication number: 20220038531
    Abstract: A message transmission method and related devices are provided in the disclosure. The method includes the following. A first long range (LoRa) device creates a LoRa mesh group. Based on a peer-to-peer (P2P) communication requirement with a second LoRa device belonging to the LoRa mesh group, the first LoRa device switches to a P2P communication mode, transmits a mode switching instruction to the second LoRa device, and increases a transmission priority associated with a target message type to a predetermined transmission priority. The mode switching instruction is used to instruct the second LoRa device to switch to the P2P communication mode. The target message type is the type of a message that needs to be transmitted in P2P communication between the first LoRa device and the second LoRa device. The first LoRa device transmits a message of the target message type to the second LoRa device.
