Abstract
Example implementations relate to a camera system housing. In some examples, an apparatus may comprise a camera system housing including a camera and a gear mechanism. The camera housing may be coupled to a computing device. In some examples, the camera system housing may retract into the computing device to an enclosed position such that the housing is disposed at a first angle relative to the computing device responsive to actuation of the gear mechanism in a first direction and open out of the computing device to an enclosed position such that the housing is disposed at a second angle relative to the computing device responsive to actuation of the gear mechanism in a second direction.
Claims15
An apparatus, comprising:
- a camera system housing including a camera and a gear mechanism, the camera housing coupled to a computing device, the camera system housing to:
- retract into the computing device to an enclosed position such that the housing is disposed at a first angle relative to the computing device responsive to actuation of the gear mechanism in a first direction;
- and
- open out of the computing device to an open position such that the housing is disposed at a second angle relative to the computing device responsive to actuation of the gear mechanism in a second direction.
A system, comprising:
- a computing device;
- a gear actuation mechanism coupled to the computing device;
- and
- a camera system housing including a camera and gears, the camera system housing coupled to the computing device, and the gears coupled to the gear actuation mechanism, wherein
- the gear actuation mechanism is to cause actuation of the gears to move the camera housing system from a first position to a second position.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a camera system housing including a gear mechanism, the camera system housing coupled via the gear mechanism to a computing device;
- a gear actuation mechanism coupled to the gear mechanism and the computing device, the gear actuation mechanism actuatable to enable the gear mechanism to move the camera system housing from a first position to a second position, wherein
- the camera system housing is disposed in a recess in the computing device large enough to accommodate the camera system housing when in the first position.
