Abstract:
An imaging device includes: an imaging element; a lens disposed on a path of incident light to the imaging element; an actuator configured to displace the lens in a plane perpendicular to an optical axis; a position detecting element configured to generate a position detection signal indicating a displacement of the lens; and an actuator driver configured to feedback-control the actuator based on the position detection signal and a target code indicating a target displacement of the lens. The actuator driver includes: a correction circuit that converts a first detection code corresponding to the position detection signal into a second detection code having a linear relationship with an actual displacement of the lens; and a control circuit that controls the actuator so that the second detection code approaches the target code.

Claim (Index 7):
An actuator driver for use in an imaging device including: an imaging element; a lens disposed on a path of incident light to the imaging element: an actuator configured to displace the lens in a plane perpendicular to an optical axis; a position detecting element configured to generate a position detection signal indicating a displacement of the lens; and the actuator driver configured to feedback-control the actuator based on a target code indicating a target displacement of the lens and the position detection signal, the actuator driver comprising:\n a correction circuit configured to convert a first detection code corresponding to the position detection signal into a second detection code having a linear relationship with an actual displacement of the lens; a control circuit configured to control the actuator so that the second detection code approaches the target code; and a processor configured to execute a calibration program to acquire a relational expression for convening the first detection code into the second detection code, wherein the actual displacement of the lens acquired during the execution of the calibration program is based on a moving distance of an image captured by the imaging element.
