The patented camera technology could be applied with a smartphone with different design such as a foldable display smartphone
Smartphone makers are increasingly improving the quality of the cameras in their phones by adding additional lenses at the back. Earlier this week, Samsung launched-Galaxy A9– its first phone with four cameras at the back. And word is that Nokia could top that off by introducing Nokia 9 Pureview that would come with five cameras at the back. But new reports suggests that the rear camera setup is going to get crazier than that as word is the LG is working on a phone that would feature 16 camera lenses at the back.
According to a report by the Dutch site Lets Go Digital, the Korean electronics giant has received a patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office for a “Mobile terminal and control method for the mobile terminal” that would come with a 16-lenses that are arranged in a matrix format at the back of the phone.
