Abstract
A camera module according to one embodiment comprises: a first lens part having an optical axis arranged parallel to an X-axis; a second lens part having an optical axis arranged parallel to a Y-axis perpendicular to the X-axis; a first image sensor having one surface arranged to face the first lens part; a second image sensor having one surface arranged to face the second lens part; and a light guide part arranged between the first lens part and the first image sensor, or between the second lens part and the second image sensor.

A camera module comprising:
- a first lens unit arranged such that an optical axis thereof is in parallel to an x-axis;
- a second lens unit arranged such that an optical axis thereof is in, parallel to a y-axis, the y-axis being perpendicular to the x-axis;
- a first image sensor arranged such that one surface thereof faces the first lens unit;
- a second image sensor arranged such that one surface thereof faces the second lens unit;
- and
- a light guide unit arranged between the first lens unit and the first image sensor and between the second lens unit and the second image sensor;
- wherein the first lens unit and the second lens unit are configured to have respective optical axes perpendicular to each other and to each have a field of view in a range between 90° and 110° such that a total field of view of the first lens unit and the second lens unit ranges from 160° to 200°.
