PCB-mountable lens adapter for a PCB-mountable camera module

摘要

A PCB-mountable lens adapter includes an adapter lens for being a component of an imaging system that has a second field of view different from the first field of view, the imaging system comprising the adapter lens and the camera lens; and an adapter housing for holding the adapter lens and for attaching to a PCB. A method for modifying the field of view of an camera module includes attaching a PCB-mountable lens adapter to a PCB, the PCB-mountable lens adapter including an adapter lens mounted in an adapter housing, the PCB being configured for surface-mounting of the camera module thereto.
