Patent ID: 8054369

Claim:
An image capturing device comprising: a base mounted with a plurality of terminals thereon and having a bottom wall having a top surface, a first surrounding wall extending upwardly from said top surface of said bottom wall, having a top side, and cooperating with said bottom wall to define a first receiving space therebetween, and a second surrounding wall extending upwardly from said top side of said first surrounding wall and cooperating with said top side of said first surrounding wall to define a second receiving space therebetween in spatial communication with said first receiving space, said second receiving space being greater than said first receiving space; a lens module mounted on said base for generating an optical image of an object; A liquid crystal panel based auto-focusing module mounted in said second receiving space in said base and disposed under said lens module for auto-focusing the optical image generated by said lens module based on an external voltage; and a sensing module mounted in said first receiving space in said base, disposed under said auto-focusing module, and spaced apart from said lens module at a predetermined distance for sensing the optical image focused by said auto-focusing module so as to generate an electrical output corresponding to the optical image.
