Alternate case for the Neo1973, with rear-mounted camera module.
Contents |
Concept
A flexible phone is desired that meets most users needs. Camera module should be easily installed or removed (and left in the car) for people that are unable to take cameras into work.
cs mount camera
- allows use of any standard cs mount (or other lenses with adapters) for superior optical focus & zoom
- cs mount is used because it can be converted to use c mount lenses with a 5mm extension tube
- surface of focal plane array is 12.52mm below top of surface (requiring less room than c mount or many other standard lenses)
- module faces can be exchanged to allow operation in either camera or video-conferencing mode
- lens can easily be unscrewed, converting the image sensor into a useless memory, and replaced with a c/cs mount cap. -- This could disable camera & allow people to bring the phone into work (or you could just remove the entire module)
A strong LED could be used as a close range flash. An ambient light sensor could automatically control this function. This could also be used as a torch.

Neo1973 Art of Illusion 3D Model - Not fully accurate, just an artistic concept.
Materials
- 1 Camera with about 2MP or more for making pictures
- 1 Camera for video conferences. OV7610 or OV7110 has an highspeed I²C Interface and would be good for easy connecting to the ARM processor.
cs mount camera
- Aluminum top front of case cover could allow 1" x 32tpi lens mount hole (3.8mm threaded down from surface) made directly into cover.
Processes
Stereolithography
Components
Camera module with protection
At least 2 Mpx.

- Jackcday -- I think it needs a camera, would be great if it could have a very high MPX camera with good software so you could use it as a proper camera.
- flexd -- This would be excellent for a idea of mine, camera + gps + wifi/gprs/3g/edge fun! :)
- Duker Would be awesome, especially if the camera (lens component) were removable for those pf us who can't have cameras at work (or court)
