Lens barrel apparatus for camera
An apparatus for a camera with a lens barrel and a barrel driving unit. The apparatus includes an eye-shaped lens barrel, a vertical driving unit, a horizontal driving unit, a rotation-position sensing unit, a coordinate input unit, and a controller. The vertical driving unit rotates the eye-shaped lens barrel about a vertical axis in response to a vertical rotation control signal. The horizontal driving unit rotates the eye-shaped lens barrel about a horizontal axis in response to a horizontal rotation control signal. The rotation-position sensing unit generates a rotation-position data in response to the rotation of the eye-shaped lens barrel. The coordinate input unit generates an input coordinate data according to a manipulating action of a user. The controller generates the vertical rotation control signal and the horizontal rotation control signal according to the input coordinate data and the rotation-position data.
