- **Actuator: Vertical Type**: Features a ball guide structure for high reliability and performance, excellent shock resistance, and the ability to drive heavy lenses in line with high-resolution trends. The technology ensures high-precision operation through structural separation of the lens movement axis and improves productivity by minimizing processes. It offers low-power operation optimized for mobile devices and precise control of OIS and AF using a closed-loop method.**Actuator: Vertical Type**: Features a ball guide structure for high reliability and performance, excellent shock resistance, and the ability to drive heavy lenses in line with high-resolution trends.

- **Folded Zoom Actuator**: A telephoto camera module actuator that refracts light with a prism to transmit it to the image sensor. This technology reduces the camera module thickness while achieving high-performance telephoto zoom, thereby minimizing the 'camera bump' on the back of smartphones. It includes high-precision tilting control technology and a rotary ball-based hinge structure technology to minimize fine vibrations, a primary cause of image degradation during high-magnification shooting.**Folded Zoom Actuator**: A telephoto camera module actuator that refracts light with a prism to transmit it to the image sensor.
