Problems solved by technology

However, for this reason, the number of pixels included in the image sensor is inevitably increased, which may lead to an increase in the size of the image sensor and increased power consumption.
[0005] That is, since conventional camera modules use multiple data arrays as-is, there is a limitation: the resolution of the camera module is determined by the physical resolution of the image sensor
In addition, there is a limitation that in order to produce super-resolution images, multiple cameras need to be used

Abstract

A camera module according to an embodiment comprises an image sensor which outputs a plurality of image frames; a lens assembly which is disposed on the image sensor and includes a variable lens thatadjusts a path of light which is incident on the image sensor from the outside; and a control unit which generates a control signal for controlling the variable lens; and an image synthesis unit whichsynthesizes a plurality of image frames to generate a composite image, wherein the composite image may have a higher resolution than a plurality of image frames, and the plurality of image frames maybe each image frame generated by changing to different light paths from each other due to the variable lens.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to camera modules. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to camera modules and optical devices capable of producing super-resolution images. Background technique [0002] People using portable devices demand optical devices that are high-resolution, compact, and have various shooting functions (optical zoom-in / zoom-out functions, auto-focus (AF) functions, hand-shake compensation or optical image stabilization (OIS) functions, etc.). These shooting functions can be realized by directly moving multiple lenses that are combined. However, in the case of increasing the number of lenses, the size of the optical device may increase. [0003] The auto focus function and the hand shake compensation function are performed by moving or tilting a plurality of lens modules fixed to the optical axis in a state where the optical axes of the lenses are aligned, or in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis lens hold...
