Lens holder, a sensor unit, and an image capturing device

An image capturing device comprising:

• a sensor unit comprising an image sensor;
• and
• an optics unit comprising, a lens holder for the optics unit, the lens holder having a body extending in a lens holder plane and comprising:
• a lens mount arranged on the body configured to support a lens of the optics unit and extending along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to the lens holder plane;
• and
• support posts extending from the body of the lens holder along the longitudinal axis and configured to support a sensor unit aligned with the optics unit,
• wherein each support post has a first end adjoining the body of the lens holder, and a free second end, and
• wherein the first end of one or more support posts adjoins a respective displacement portion of the body of the lens holder, which displacement portion is configured to be displaced out of the lens holder plane in response to a thermally induced force acting on the support post, and
• wherein each displacement portion is defined by one or more slits, and
• a lens supported by the lens holder;
• or:
• a sensor unit comprising an image sensor and an optics unit the sensor unit having a body extending in a sensor unit plane, wherein the body is provided with a sensor unit displacement portion configured to be attached to a free end of a support post of a lens holder, and configured to be displaced out of the sensor unit plane in response to a thermally induced force acting on the support post,
• wherein each sensor unit displacement portion is defined by one or more slits,
• a lens holder having support posts extending from a body of the lens holder along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to the sensor unit plane and configured to support the sensor unit, each support post having a first end adjoining the body of the lens holder, and a free second end, and
• a lens supported by the lens holder.
