Patent ID: 8573784

Claim:
An imaging apparatus adapted to form an image, the imaging apparatus comprising: a light-emitting unit array for emitting an image beam, the light-emitting unit array comprising a plurality of light-emitting units monolithically integrated; a circuit substrate disposed under the light-emitting unit array, wherein the circuit substrate is electrically connected to the light-emitting unit array for individual driving the light-emitting units; an optical sensor, for detecting electromagnetic waves from at least one of the image and an environment so as to generate a signal; a control unit, electrically coupled to the light-emitting unit array and the optical sensor for controlling emission of the light-emitting unit array according to the signal from the optical sensor; and an image-forming optics for propagating the image beam to form the image, wherein the image-forming optics is electrically coupled to the control unit, and the control unit controls the image-forming optics according to the signal from the optical sensor.
