Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention utilize an attachable lens board that can be secured to the back of a mobile device and placed in a position that is proximate to the built-in camera lens associated with the camera system of the mobile device. As such, the lens board can be positioned to accurately align several different auxiliary camera lenses, each installed within various camera lens receivers formed within the lens board, with the built-in camera lens for focusing and/or image capture. Additionally, embodiments of present invention can include circuitry within the lens board that can be used to identify the types of lenses currently installed within each camera lens receiver. In this manner, embodiments of the present invention can correct possible optical imperfections of resultant images produced by the combination of the built-in camera lens and auxiliary lens selected for focusing and/or image capture by the user.
