Abstract
A lens cleaning system is disclosed herein. The lens cleaning system includes a main case, a lens shield, an actuator means, a cleaning member housing, at least one cleaning member, and a power supply system. The lens cleaning system attaches to a camera to allow for longer shot durations without having the image obstructed by debris. The self-cleaning camera lens system may be particularly designed to be self-cleaning, self-contained, mobile, discrete, easy to use, easily attachable, unobtrusive and at least partially self-maintaining and self-powered.
