Key Advantages.

1. Variable Focal Length
Modern smartphones typically feature between 3 to 5 fixed focal length cameras to meet a wide range of user needs, from capturing expansive landscapes to close-up selfies. LirOptic’s innovative lens technology introduces a variable focal length, enabling flexible adjustments with a single lens.

This revolutionary advancement offers the potential to significantly reduce the number of cameras integrated into smartphones, freeing up valuable space for other essential hardware. The compact design could also allow for a larger battery, providing additional power for AI processing and other features – both areas of significant investment in the smart phone industry.

2. Reduced Lateral Stack Dimension
Current CCM designs use multiple lenses and a Voice Coil Motor (VCM) to adjust focus, leading to a bulky lens stack that often protrudes from the smartphone housing. With LirOptic's shapeshifting lens, the need for multiple corrective lenses and VCMs is eliminated. Optimizing the position of LirOptic's lens within the CCM stack reduces the lateral stack dimension by over 2mm — from approximately 6mm to under 4mm —enabling sleeker, more streamlined designs without compromising image quality.

3. Optical Zoom
While current smartphones rely on digital zoom, which can degrade image quality, LirOptic's lens technology offers true optical zoom. By integrating a series of LirOptic shapeshifting lenses into a compact stack, smartphones can achieve optical zoom without the need for bulky, moving components. This breakthrough provides users with higher-quality zoom functionality while maintaining a slim, efficient camera module.
With LirOptic, the future of smartphone photography is not only more compact but also more powerful, offering enhanced flexibility, superior image quality, and more efficient use of space.
