PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable telephone with image sensing unit capable of imaging an object at an optional angle in excess of 360-degrees. SOLUTION: The peripheral surface of a columnar rotary body 10 is formed to have a light-entrant opening, and the bottom of the rotary body is formed to have an emergent-light opening 18. Light that has entered from the light- entrant opening 11 is introduced to the emergent-light opening 18 by a first mirror 17. Light that impinged upon the rotary body 10 is introduced from the emergent-light opening 18 to a first half body 30 that constructs the main unit of a portable telephone. A second mirror 43 is disposed within the first half body 30, and light that has emerged from the rotary body 10 is introduced to the photoreceptor surface of a C-MOS sensor 44 by the second mirror 43. Since the rotary body and the first half body are not connected by a cord or the like, the rotary body 10 can be turned through any angle to enable imaging at any angle. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
