Abstract
Disclosed herein are a camera configured to adjust a focus thereof on the basis of a rotating method and an object processing apparatus using the same. The camera according to one embodiment moves a mirror between a lens and a sensor forward and backward, moves one side end of the sensor without a mirror, or moves the sensor forward and backward using rotation of a cam connected to a rotating motor to adjust a focal length between the lens and the sensor and adjust a focus of the camera onto a moving object.
Claims22
A camera comprising:
- a lens configured to collect and transmit light received from a moving object;
- a mirror configured to reflect the light transmitted via the lens;
- a sensor configured to receive the light reflected by the mirror and convert the light into an image signal;
- a cam configured to move the mirror forward and backward using a rotational motion thereof and adjust a focal length between the lens and the sensor to adjust a focus of the camera;
- and
- a rotating motor configured to drive the cam.

An object processing apparatus comprising:
- a camera configured to adjust a focal length between a lens and a sensor for a moving object by moving a mirror between the lens and the sensor forward and backward, moving one side end of the sensor without a mirror, or moving the sensor forward and backward using a rotational motion of a cam connected to a rotating motor;
- a measuring unit configured to measure a size or position of the object or a distance to the object;
- and
- a controller configured to drive the rotating motor on the basis of information measured by the measuring unit.
