## Abstract

A resolution detection device is applied to a camera device and includes at least one arc-shaped structural member and an identification member. The at least one arc-shaped structural member is disposed on a position distant from a detection point in a predefined distance. The identification member includes a plurality of identification patterns. The identification member is formed on the at least one arc-shaped structural member, and a plurality of intervals between the detection point and each of the plurality of identification patterns is set as the predefined distance. The camera device acquires a captured image via the detection point, and the captured image contains the plurality of identification patterns. The resolution detection device further includes a relay lens disposed on the detection point.
