Abstract:
An electronic device that includes a vision system carried by a bracket assembly is disclosed. The vision system may include a first camera module that captures an image of an object, a light emitting element that emits light rays toward the object, and a second camera module that receives light rays reflected from the object. The light rays may include infrared light rays. The bracket assembly is designed not only carry the aforementioned modules, but to also maintain a predetermined and fixed separation between the modules. The bracket assembly may form a rigid, multi-piece bracket assembly to prevent bending, thereby maintaining the predetermined separation. The electronic device may include a transparent cover designed to couple with a housing. The transparent cover includes an alignment module designed to engage a module and provide a moving force that aligns the bracket assembly and the modules to a desired location in the housing.

Claim (Index 1):
portable electronic device, comprising:\n a bottom wall and sidewalls that, in cooperation with the bottom wall, define a cavity, the sidewalls having edges that define an opening that leads into the cavity; a protective layer that covers the opening and encloses the cavity, the protective layer having an internal surface that faces the bottom wall; a vision subsystem positioned within the cavity and between the protective layer and the bottom wall and operable to provide a depth map of an object external to the protective layer, the vision subsystem comprising: a bracket assembly arranged to carry optical components that cooperate to provide information used to create the depth map, the bracket assembly, comprising:\n a first bracket arranged to carry and maintain the optical components at a fixed distance from each other, and \n a second bracket having a body secured with the first bracket, the second bracket having a protrusion that extends away from the body; and \n an alignment module secured to the internal surface, the alignment module having alignment structures associated and aligned with corresponding optical components, wherein the protrusion engages the bottom wall such that the bracket assembly is biased towards the alignment module.
