  • Optical Design of the 13 Mega-Pixels Mobile Phone Camera Pengbo Chen
    3rd International Conference on Materials Engineering, Manufacturing Technology and Control (ICMEMTC 2016) Optical design of the 13 mega-pixels mobile phone camera Pengbo Chen，Xingyu Gaoa,* Institute of Intelligent Opto-mechatronics and Advanced Manufacture Technology, College of Electromechanical Engineering, Guilin University of Electronic Technology, Guilin 541004,China. a,*[email protected] Corresponding Author：Xingyu Gao Keywords: Optical design ; Mobile phone lens; Aspherical surface; Abstract. According to the market demand for high resolution cell phone camera，a 13 mega-pixels camera lens applying aspherical surfaces is designed using the ZEMAX optical design software. The lens is consisted by four pieces of aspherical plastic lens, an optical filter and a piece of protection glass. The lens has the optical performance of F-number 2.8, viewing angle 76°, focal length 4.4 mm, back focal length 0.58 mm, and total length 5.6 mm. After the tolerance analyzing, its tolerance meets the processing requirements, which can satisfy the requirements of the commercial sell phone. 1. Introduction Since 2000, Japan's Sharp Co launched the world's first camera phone. Camera function has become an essential feature of the phone. In 2003, Sony launched the first mobile phone with camera function, model for Ericsson T618, this phone installed 10 million pixel mobile phone lens, which is the earliest a camera phone, marking China's entry into the era of mobile phone camera on the Chinese market. In 2006, Zhu Rihong [1], who designed a f / 3.2, field of view angle of 55 degrees, pixel reached 160 million of the lens, the lens system as the total length of 5mm.In 2008, Liu Maochao [2], who designed a F/2.85, field of view angle of 62 degrees, pixel to 3 million of the lens, the system length of the lens is 5.26mm.In 2009, Li Wenjing [3], who designed a F/2.8, the field of view angle of 65 degrees, pixel 5 million of the mobile phone lens, the total length of the lens system is 5.8mm.

Iivari Bäck* and Kari Mäkelä Department of Biomedical Engineering, Tampere University of Technology, Koskenalantie 16, FI-60220 Seinäjoki, Finland Abstract Mobile phone text messaging (Short Message Service, SMS) has proved to be a powerful tool for many tasks in health care. It is affordable and instant way for communication between health care personnel and patients, enabling different kinds of control and monitoring applications, improving adherence in self-management of chronic diseases or healthy lifestyle programs etc. However, it is not only textual data that can be transmitted by mobile phone messaging. Multimedia Message Service (MMS) makes it possible to send images, video sequences and audio attached to the message. This has significant potential in health care applications, and an amount of research has been made recently on this field. In this paper, we review the recent development in the mobile phone messaging in health care. Special attention has been paid in the discussion of the current state of the art of text messaging as well as the potentiality of multimedia data that can be utilized by means of multimedia messaging. Introduction is to analyze and discuss the possibilities of the use of the multimedia data in health care related mobile messaging, and identify the benefits Mobile computing and communication technology interventions and drawbacks.
