A new patent shows that Samsung is working on a mobile camera for smartphones. This design makes it possible to use different apertures.
According to LetsGoDigital , this design was recently seen in one of Samsung's patents and shows a camera with a horizontal layout, but this layout can move and form a triangle. The main sensor of this camera is located in the center but can be moved. Ultra-wide and telephoto sensors are mounted on the left and right, respectively, but can move inward.
In this design, each camera sensor has two apertures and each aperture has a different aperture. Therefore, in theory, the displacement of the position of the sensors changes the size of the aperture. When the sensors are positioned in a triangular position, the apertures are set to the lowest position. Also, because each sensor has two final positions, only two aperture sizes are available per sensor.
There are several benefits to using a mobile camera. Higher aperture allows more light to pass through, resulting in better shooting in low light environments. However, this system has its own drawbacks. The presence of moving and mechanical parts increases the chance of failure, and since these parts are related to the camera, they will be difficult to repair or replace.
The present patent was filed by Samsung Electro-Mechanics in October 2020. However, as we have said, it is not clear whether this system will ultimately be used on a consumer product. Many patents are registered solely for the purpose of obtaining intellectual property rights and are not necessarily intended to be used in the final products.
Of course, Samsung has used the idea of a variable aperture on the Galaxy Note 9 and Galaxy S10 Plus in the past, but we'll have to wait and see how this new patent works.
