Check Out The Renders Of OnePlus’ Magnetic Rotating Camera

OnePlus has been very busy lately. The company officially started selling the OnePlus 9RT in India last week, thus marking its global release. There'due south also the OnePlus x series that broke cover recently in Prc. A patent application filed initially by OnePlus in late 2020 reveals a unique mobile camera mechanism, allowing information technology to rotate magnetically.

The patent listing was first uncovered by LetsGoDigital. The site and so generated a few high-resolution renders of this concept courtesy of Parvez Khan, a.k.a Technizo Concept. This cleverly designed rear camera can rotate up to 180 degrees, offering the flexibility to shoot pictures or videos from different angles.

The patent is known but as "Photographic camera module and electronic equipment," while information technology was officially approved in June 2021. The patent has also been submitted to the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO). It'southward currently unclear if this engineering science will get in to a OnePlus smartphone in the near future. Only there's a slim chance that information technology will make information technology to the OnePlus 11 Pro next yr.

This new camera system also has a built-in mechanism to reduce camera shaking

OnePlus' patent filing reveals that the camera simply slightly protrudes from the rear console, while information technology seems to have the ability to rotate on its own axis. This ensures the sensor doesn't protrude from the camera housing during the rotation mechanism. There are a few magnets in place besides, assuasive the camera to rotate up to 180 degrees, opening a new avenue of possibilities for shutterbugs.

As LetsGoDigital points out, the idea appears to stem from mirrorless cameras that provide a tilting screen. OnePlus will reportedly bundle a software-based recording style to adapt the rotating photographic camera. Merely the patent listing doesn't offer additional data on this aspect.

Additionally, the photographic camera mechanism offers nifty features in regular or standard manner to alleviate camera shaking. The image stabilization system appears identical to sensor-shift OIS on the iPhone 12/13 Pro Max. It goes without saying that this new camera applied science would utilise the expertise of camera maker Hasselblad.

Although the renders offering us a glimpse into OnePlus' time to come, we're not holding our breath to see it in action anytime soon. But nosotros sincerely hope this photographic camera arrangement makes its debut next year with the OnePlus xi Pro.
