Abstract

A 360-degree panoramic camera device for taking a 360-degree panoramic image in a once-through operation includes a first case, a second case connected with the first case, and a panoramic camera module located between the first case and the second case. The panoramic camera module includes a circuit board, a first camera module fixed on the circuit board and capturing a first image in a first direction through the first case, and a second camera module fixed on the circuit board and capturing a second image in a second direction through the second. case. The first direction is opposite the second direction. A first optical axis of the first camera module and a second optical axis of the second camera module are misaligned from a straight line and are parallel to each other.
