发明名称 IMAGE-CAPTURING DEVICE CONFIGURED FOR A HANDHELD ELECTRONIC DEVICE
摘要 An image-capturing device configured for a handheld electronic device includes a protective case and an image-capturing module having a first transmission unit. The protective case has a receiving space and an opening. The image-capturing module is disposed in the protective case, and includes a camera unit, a processing unit, and a second transmission unit. In response to user commands inputted through the handheld electronic device and communicated to the image-capturing device via the communication established between the first transmission unit and the second transmission unit, the processing unit is operable to control operation of the camera unit.
