CAMERA INTEGRATED WITH LIGHT SOURCE
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A camera integrated with a light source, the camera comprising:
- the light source configured to emit light;
a scanning mirror configured to scan the light emitted from the light source toward an object;
an optical detector configured to detect the light reflected from the object; and
a controller configured to transmit a control signal to the scanning mirror for selectively adjusting a scanning angle of the scanning mirror, and to generate a depth image of the object using the reflected light detected by the optical detector.

Abstract
Disclosed is a camera integrated with a light source, and a method of operating the same. The camera includes: the light source configured to emit light; a scanning mirror configured to scan the light emitted from the light source toward an object; an optical detector configured to detect the light reflected from the object; and a controller configured to transmit a control signal for selectively adjusting a scanning angle of the scanning mirror, and to generate a depth image of the object using the reflected light detected by the optical detector.

17. A method of operating a camera integrated with a light source, the method comprising:
-
emitting, by the light source, light; scanning, by a scanning mirror of the camera, the emitted light toward an object; detecting, by an optical detector of the camera, the light reflected from the object; and generating a depth image of the object using the detected light, wherein the scanning comprises selectively adjusting a scanning angle of the scanning mirror. - View Dependent Claims (18)

19. A method of operating a camera integrated with a light source, the method comprising:
-
transmitting a first control signal to control the light source to emit light; transmitting a second control signal to selectively adjust a scanning angle of a scanning mirror that scans the light emitted from the light source toward an object; and generating a depth image of the object using detected light reflected from the object. - View Dependent Claims (20)
