1. A sound-based focus system comprising:
- an imaging device configured for capturing an image, comprising a focus lens and a driving unit; and
a focus controller comprising;
a sound detecting module configured for obtaining the position coordinates of sound sources;
a judging module configured for judging the number of sound sources;
a selecting module configured for selecting a sound source based on a predefined selecting condition when the number of the sound sources is more than one; and
a control module configured for controlling the driving unit to drive the focus lens to move along an optical axis of the focus lens and to adjust the orientation of the focus lens by means of rotation to aim at the sound source in order to focus on the sound source according to the position coordinates thereof.
