Abstract
An information handling system includes a camera in a portable housing, the camera selectively blocked and exposed by a camera shutter having a biasing device with a semiautomatic open and close response generating by biasing the shutter towards the closed position when the shutter is greater than a predetermined amount closed and biasing the shutter towards the open position when the shutter is greater than a predetermined amount open. The dual bias is generated with a torsion spring captured between a fixed portion and a sliding portion that interacts with an extension from the fixed portion and an extension from the sliding portion based upon the shutter position.
