Optical element driving mechanism
An optical element driving mechanism includes a movable portion, a fixed portion, a driving assembly, a guiding assembly, and a metallic member. The movable portion is configured to connect an optical element. The optical element is configured to correspond to light reflected by a reflection element, and the reflection element is configured to change a traveling direction of the light from an incident direction to a first direction. The fixed portion includes a base, and the movable portion is movable relative to the fixed portion. The driving assembly is configured to drive the movable portion to move relative to the fixed portion. The guiding assembly includes a plurality of guiding elements. The metallic member is disposed in the base. When viewed from the incident direction, the metallic member is at least partially located between the guiding elements.
