Multiple lenses in a mobile device

A system, comprising:

• a mobile device comprising:
• a housing comprising a first surface, an opposing second surface, and a bezel, the bezel including third, fourth, fifth, and sixth surfaces extending from the first surface to the second surface thereby forming the housing;
• a plurality of lenses including at least a first lens, having a first lens axis, and a second lens, having a second lens axis, the first lens axis being perpendicular, within a tolerance, to the second lens axis, each lens is configured to capture a respective one of a plurality of images and the first and second lens axis are perpendicular, within the tolerance, to at least a portion of at least one surface of the housing, wherein at least one of the first lens or the second lens is included in the bezel;
• at least one image sensor selectively optically coupled to at least one of the first lens or the second lens, the at least one image sensor being configured to convert each captured image into respective image data, and
• circuitry to activate at least the first and second lenses of the plurality of lenses, selectively optically couple at least one of the first lens or the second lens to the at least one image sensor, receive the image data, and process the image data;
• wherein the circuitry is further to generate a plurality of display images that includes a captured image from the first lens and a captured image from the second lens and to provide the plurality of display images to a display for simultaneous display of the display images from the first lens and from the second lens;
• and
• a remote service configured to control the mobile device remotely, the remote service comprising a processor, communication circuitry coupled to the processor, and a memory.

A method comprising:

• activating at least a first lens, having a first lens axis, and a second lens, having a second lens axis, the first lens axis being perpendicular, within a tolerance, to the second lens axis, each lens is configured to capture a respective one of a plurality of images and the first and second lens axis are perpendicular, within the tolerance, to at least a portion of at least one surface of the housing, the housing comprising a first surface, an opposing second surface, and a bezel, the bezel including third, fourth, fifth, and sixth surfaces extending from the first surface to the second surface thereby forming the housing, wherein at least one of the first lens or the second lens is included in the bezel;
• selectively optically coupling at least one image sensor to at least one of the first lens or the second lens;
• capturing an image from each of the first and second lenses;
• converting each captured image into respective image data using the at least one image sensor;
• processing the image data;
• and
• generating a plurality of display images that includes a captured image from the first lens and a captured image from the second lens and providing the plurality of display images to a display for simultaneous display of the display images from the first lens and from the second lens.

A system comprising one or more storage mediums having stored thereon, individually or in combination, instructions that when executed by one or more processors result in the following operations comprising:

• activating at least a first lens, having a first lens axis, and a second lens, having a second lens axis, the first lens axis being perpendicular, within a tolerance, to the second lens axis, each lens is configured to capture a respective one of a plurality of images and the first and second lens axis are perpendicular, within a tolerance, to at least a portion of at least one surface of the housing, the housing comprising a first surface, an opposing second surface, and a bezel, the bezel including third, fourth, fifth, and sixth surfaces extending from the first surface to the second surface thereby forming the housing, wherein at least one of the first lens or the second lens is included in the bezel;
• selectively optically coupling at least one image sensor to at least one of the first lens or the second lens;
• capturing an image from each of the first and second lenses;
• converting each captured image into respective image data using the at least one image sensor;
• processing the image data;
• and
• generating a plurality of display images that includes a captured image from the first lens and a captured image from the second lens and providing the plurality of display images to a display for simultaneous display of the display images from the first lens and from the second lens.
