Abstract

Devices disclosed herein feature a Wide camera with a Wide field of view (FOV), a folded Tele camera with a Tele field of view (FOV) smaller than the FOVand including an optical path folding element (OPFE). The device may be configured to rotate the OPFE to thereby shift FOVrelative to FOVin response to recognition of an object or subject of interest detected in FOVor FOV. The device can have high resolution in this overlapping FOV either by fusing the Wide and Tele images or by capturing and saving the Tele image.
