Mobile Device Case Having an Integrated Wide-Angle Lens

Abstract

A case for a mobile device is provided, which may advantageously include an integrated wide-angle lens for photography and/or videography. The mobile device case includes a protective casing with an opening that exposes a mobile device camera, where the mobile device camera has a default angle of view. The protective casing encloses the mobile device and may include one or more hinges and one or more locking mechanisms. A wide-angle lens is integrated within the protective casing of the mobile device case. In some embodiments, the wide-angle lens is removably attached to the protective casing of the mobile device. The wide-angle lens provides a wider angle of view to the mobile device camera than the default angle of view. Furthermore, the wide-angle lens is positioned a predetermined distance from the mobile device camera. The wide-angle lens, in some embodiments, is a fisheye lens.
