LENS CURVATURE VARIATION APPARATUS

Abstract:

A lens curvature variation apparatus according to an embodiment includes: a liquid lens including a common electrode and a plurality of individual electrodes; a lens driver applying a voltage to the common electrode and the plurality of individual electrodes; a plurality of switching elements connected to each of the plurality of individual electrodes; a plurality of sensor units connected to each of the plurality of switching elements, and sensing an interface of the liquid lens that changes based on the voltage; a multiplexer (MUX) connected to the plurality of sensor units, and sequentially outputs an analog signal corresponding to the interface output from each of the plurality of sensor units; an AD converter that converts the analog signal sequentially output from the MUX into a digital signal to output; and a control unit controlling the lens driver based on the signal output from the AD converter.
