Problems solved by technology

However, there are still the following problems: First, the lens driver of this patent is prepared by bonding the first dielectric elastomer film and the second dielectric elastomer film, that is, it adopts two layers of dielectric elastomer film bonding In the finished lens driver, when the flexible electrode is powered on, the area of ​​the flexible electrode 5 on the first dielectric elastomer film 1 and the area of ​​the flexible electrode 5 on the second dielectric elastomer film 2 become inconsistent.
Secondly, the grooves on the first dielectric elastomer film and the second dielectric elastomer film are obtained by manual suction of a soft plastic water bottle. First, the volume of the two grooves cannot be guaranteed to be the same, and second, it is laborious and inefficient.
Both of the above two factors will lead to the problems of poor zoom imaging effect, unclear imaging and deformation of the zoom cavity lens produced by it.
