Camera actuator for lens and sensor shifting

A voice coil motor (VCM) actuator, comprising:

• a magnet;
• a plurality of coils;
• a dynamic platform configured to be coupled to an image sensor of a camera such that the image sensor moves together with the dynamic platform;
• a first static member configured to be static relative to the dynamic platform;
• a second static member configured to be static relative to the dynamic platform;
• a bottom flexure configured to mechanically connect the dynamic platform to the first static member;
• and
• a top flexure configured to mechanically connect a coil holder of the camera to the second static member, wherein the coil holder is configured to support one or more coils of the plurality of coils.

A mobile multifunction device, comprising:

• a camera module, including:
• a lens that defines an optical axis;
• an image sensor configured to capture light passing through the lens and convert the captured light into image signals;
• a voice coil motor (VCM) actuator, including:
• a sensor shift platform configured to be coupled to the image sensor such that the image sensor moves together with the sensor shift platform;
• a bottom flexure configured to mechanically connect the sensor shift platform to a first static member of the camera that is configured to be static relative to the sensor shift platform;
• a top flexure configured to mechanically connect a coil holder to a second static member of the camera that is configured to be static relative to the sensor shift platform, wherein the coil holder is configured to support one or more actuator coils;
• a display;
• and
• one or more processors configured to:
• cause the VCM actuator to move the image sensor in a plurality of directions orthogonal to the optical axis;
• cause the VCM actuator to move the image sensor or the lens along the optical axis;
• and
• cause the display to present an image based at least in part on one or more of the image signals from the image sensor.
