In this study, automatic assembly and evaluation system fer phone camera module is conceptually designed. The designed core(Auto focus & UV curing, Image Test) equipments adopts a clustering mechanism and compactible structure using index table for minimum tact time. Using a ball screw actuator and absolute encoder in each axis, we can verifies the repeatability and position accuracy of system within ${\pm}3{\mu}m$. In result of simulation test, the proposed system is expected up to 30% in productivity than manual operation.

The tiny camera module used in a modern cellular phone requires precise assembly processes. To meet the requirement of high resolution and functionality, the number of parts used in a camera module becomes larger and larger. As the market grows rapidly, an automatic camera phone assembly process is required. However, diverse production line and short life cycle make it difficult to build an affordable assembly line. To attack this problem, a flexible and expandable lens assembly system is proposed. To save the manufacturing line set-up time, modular concept is adopted. Also, each module is designed to have intelligence to simplify the set-up process. The assembly system is built up on the standard flat-form that includes a vibration free base, air and electric supplies, and electronic controllers, etc. Furthermore, the assembly cell has the capability of handling tiny, thin, or transparent parts which are very difficult to identify without machine vision.

The recently-released camera modules assembled into high-end handsets generally carry auto focusing function. The resolution size of the camera modules is getting higher, and customers demand more precise and stable auto focusing function. When auto focusing function is getting performed, the camera modules applied to VCM usually have the problems, which are an error of lens focusing position and resolution deviation according to the shift of one's position. For this reason, I propose Hybrid VCM that has an improved structure for a stable work of actuator and higher resolution level.

This research's goal is to process directly aspherics with big sagment and thin center thickness. If we can process directly aspherics with big sagment and thin center thickness, we think it greatly helps to reduce the time of developing optical system. We made very thin glass using diamond grinding whetstone regarding the trace of tool and the detailed drawing of tool super precisive aspherics that has 0.46mm center thickness and over $30^{\circ}$ segment, $0.1{\mu}m$ machining accuracy, 15nm surface accuracy. We think this research's result will be effective to open new market because it is applied not only cell phone optical system but also CCTV robot optical system, internet phone optical system. Also we expect to enhance the super strong brittle precisive process's possibility with super precisive processing technique that achieves 0.46mm glass center thickness as first in the world.

In order to evaluate the performance of phone camera lenses, we have developed equipment for measuring the modulation transfer function(MTF) for small size lenses. The equipment is composed of an an image analyzer, object generator, and a lens mount. The object generator is rotated for on and off-axis measurement. The lens mount is of horizontal type and tiltable for precise alignment to the optical axis. After the initial alignment process, the measurement is done within 10 seconds automatically

Demand of Auto Focus for Camera module is increased very fast in these days and will be adapted to most of mobile phones in next few years instead of traditional method, fixed focus. To make auto focus function, 2 kinds of solutions, VCM(Voice Coil Motor) and Piezo linear motor are normally used. In this paper, VCM which commercially strong candidate for Auto focus mechanism was investigated to verify principles are match up to the actual operation. Auto focus algorithm is different between 1 chip and 2 chip solution. Normally 2 chip is more complicate than the other. To have best performance on this function, hysteresis and depth of field(DOF) table should be optimized.
