Problems solved by technology

This arrangement has several disadvantages: First, the camera and file are mounted on separate surfaces, so that if the laptop or stand is subject to shock or vibration, the captured image will be blurred
Second, the user must precisely align the document with the camera before capturing the image, a time-consuming process that involves trial and error to position the document holder
Third, the holder must be carried separately, which increases the number of items the user must carry
However, like the arrangement described in JP-A-10164414, this configuration can cause image degradation due to vibration or misalignment of the document relative to the camera

Abstract

A charge coupled device camera (7) is incorporated into one wing (2) of a portable personal computer (1). A document (16), such as a business card, is placed on the other wing (3), secured by means of clips (15a,15b,15c,15d) or transparent ribbons (125a,125b,125c,125d) and photographed. Blurring of the captured image is reduced because the camera and the document are mounted to the same substrate. Also, optimal positioning of the document is achieved more quickly and easily using this arrangement than using a separate stand to mount the document.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to portable electronic devices. Background technique [0002] A known electronic device including a light sensor is disclosed in JP-A-10164414. A digital camera unit is provided near the display screen of the notebook personal computer. This digital camera unit consists of a long, opaque cylinder that is free to rotate about its long axis and has a slit-shaped window cut from the surface of the cylinder, giving the cylinder an appearance similar to mailbox. A circular reflector is placed behind the aforementioned window in the cylinder and can be tilted so that light passing through the window is reflected down the axis of the cylinder and focused by an axially mounted lens onto a charge placed at the bottom of the cylinder. surface of the coupling device. [0003] The camera unit can be rotated to view and capture images of documents supported on the vertical stand. This arrangement has several disadvantages: Firs...
