<p>In a handheld electronic device (500), a motor (538) is controllable to adjust, as a function of input received at a user-input element (510) of the device, an angle of rotation (534) of a camera module (524) about a rotation axis (526) of the camera module. The camera module is physically coupled to a housing (502) of the device. An image sensor (528) is embedded in the camera module and senses an image (400) in a field of view that is centered around a line of sight (124). The line of sight is perpendicular to the rotation axis. An orientation (548) of the housing relative to a direction of gravity (546) is sensed, and the motor is controlled to rotate the camera module and hence the line of sight about the rotation axis to achieve a particular angle (550) between the line of sight and the direction of gravity.</p> |
