Abstract
A camera module for both normal photography and infrared photography comprises: an optical filter unit for selectively transmitting either infrared rays or visible light; an angle-of-view changing unit for narrowing the angle of view by refracting the infrared rays when the infrared rays pass through the optical filter unit, and transmitting the visible light without changing the angle of view when the visible light passes through the optical filter unit; and an image sensor for generating a normal image when the visible light is incident thereto and generating an infrared image when the infrared rays are incident thereto.
