Xiaomi applied for a new patent to turn mobile phones into SLRs

Now the camera function on the mobile phone is more and more powerful. It has not only ultra-high pixels, but also different camera functions, just to give users the best photo experience. Recently, Xiaomi has also been making great efforts to develop mobile photography. Before that, Xiaomi and Leica jointly launched the Xiaomi 12S series, which uses a real one inch big bottom lens on Xiaomi 12S Ultra. Recently, some netizens found that Xiaomi has applied for a new patent, which is also about mobile photography.

Those who like photography are no strangers to manual zoom. You can take pictures with artistic effects by using it well. However, manual zoom is more common in SLR cameras, and is rarely found in smartphones. According to the official website of the State Intellectual Property Office, Xiaomi's latest patent brings the manual zoom to the smartphone.

Specific messages

The abstract of the patent shows that this patent is used for mobile phone terminals. By manually controlling the zoom control switch, the zoom control switch sends out a contraction signal or an extension signal, which can realize the manual stepless adjustment of the camera's focus in the short focus state and the long focus state, so that users can obtain the photo taking experience of the SLR camera in electronic devices with limited space.

It can be seen from the patent that this technology can use the mobile phone as an SLR, and realize the switching between short focus and long focus by manually adjusting the zoom switch steplessly, so that users can have more room to operate when taking photos.

In recent years, Xiaomi has always attached great importance to mobile phone images. In July, Xiaomi Group announced the launch of image strategic upgrading, including concept upgrading, technology upgrading, architecture upgrading and ecological upgrading.

In addition, while fully promoting the upgrading of image strategy, Xiaomi also announced that it had reached an image strategic cooperation with Leica to comprehensively integrate image capabilities and promote its own mobile image development.

It can be seen from this patent application that Xiaomi wants to make further progress in mobile phone image, so that users can really experience the shooting feeling of the camera with their mobile phones. It is believed that this technology will soon meet with users, and we look forward to more different surprises for users with Xiaomi mobile phones equipped with this technology.
