Abstract
An optical mechanism is provided, including a base module, an optical element, and a ball element. The base module has a frame, a substrate movably disposed in the frame, and an image sensor disposed on the substrate. The optical element is movably connected to the base module, and light propagates through the optical element to the image sensor to generate a digital image. The ball element is disposed between the frame and the substrate, whereby the image sensor and the substrate are movable relative to the frame along a first axis that is perpendicular to an optical axis of the optical element.
