Hand-held electronic device
View Patent ↗Included is a flat box shaped housing 1 having, on a main surface 1 a thereof, a rectangular image display surface 2. Two images whose vertical directions are different from each other by 90 degrees are displayed on the image display surface 2. An imaging sensor 5 is disposed at a portion surrounding the image display surface 2, at a part away from center lines of the image display surface 2 in the height direction and the width direction. An optical axis of the imaging sensor 5 is tilted toward a reference point located on a perpendicular line that perpendicularly intersects the image display surface 2 at the center of the image display surface 2. With the above described configuration, an image captured from a fine angle is obtained.
1. An electronic device comprising:
a flat box shaped housing having, on a main surface thereof, a rectangular image display surface on which two images whose vertical directions are different from each other by 90 degrees are to be displayed;
an imaging sensor disposed at a portion surrounding the image display surface; and
a handle formed in a direction parallel to one side of the image display surface so as to protrude from the housing, wherein
an optical axis of the imaging sensor is tilted toward a reference point located on a perpendicular line that perpendicularly intersects the image display surface at the center of the image display surface, and
the imaging sensor is disposed at a portion connecting the housing and both ends of the handle.
2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the imaging sensor is disposed at a portion surrounding the image display surface at a position away from the center of the image display surface in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction.
3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the imaging sensor is disposed at a portion surrounding the image display surface, at a part away from a corner of the image display surface in a diagonal direction.
4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising an operation section disposed at a portion surrounding the image display surface and located along sides other than two sides of the image display surface adjacent to the corner where the imaging sensor is disposed.
5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the reference point is located within an area allowing a viewer holding and viewing the image display surface to clearly view the image display surface.
