Abstract:
1. A device comprising: a housing having an end configured to receive light; an optical element configured in a fixed position within the housing and configured to provide focus settings; an imager die having an adjustable position within the housing configured to receive image data through the optical element; and side actuators coupled to the imager die and the end of the housing configured to receive light, the side actuators positioned along sides of the optical element between the optical element and the housing, wherein the side actuators are configured to pull the imager die toward or push the imager die away from the optical element to cause a change in a position of the imager die, wherein the imager die is configured to receive light through the optical element along an optical axis and the side actuators are configured to move the imager die along the optical axis, and wherein the change in the position of the imager die causes a relationship between the imager die and the optical element to be configured in a given focus setting of the focus settings.
