Managing energy usage in mobile devices
摘要
說明書
The light gathered by the passive optics 105 may be supplied, optically, to an imaging component (“imager”) 116. The imager 116 may include an array of optoelectronic devices. The active optoelectronic devices may include an array of photosensitive devices (photosensors) operable for detecting an image. The photosensors may include a charge coupled device (CCD), complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS), photodiode (PD), charge-injection device (CID), charge modulation device (CMD), P-channel or N-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) device, or an array of the devices, such as a video graphics array (VGA). The devices of the array may include a plurality (“two or more”) of the CCD, CMOS, PD, CID, CMD, P-channel MOSFET (PMOS), or N-channel MOSFET (NMOS) devices.
Image data generated by the imager 116 in response to the gathered light may be supplied, over the data bus 110, to a camera 115. The camera 115 is operable in relation to the photography, and/or videography operations of the mobile device 100.
Image data generated by the imager 116 in response to the gathered light may be supplied, over the data bus 110, to a scanner 114. The camera 115 and the scanner 114 may be operable in relation to scanning operations carried out by the mobile device 100. For example, the scanner 114 may be operable for reading data associated with graphic scan targets. The graphic scan targets may include, for example, one dimensional (1D) bar codes, and/or two or three dimensional (2D) graphic data patterns, such as Han Xin codes and ‘Quick Response’ (QR) codes.
