元器件交易网讯  4月1日消息，据外媒报道，苹果通过一项可交换摄像头专利，这可以大大改善iPhone手机拍照的质量。

　　该项专利于2012年9月7日申请。

　　专利显示，“卡口式连接机制”可以保护镜片。这整套机制可以让用户切换镜头，拍出高质量的照片。

　　正如科技博客指出的，这并不是首次提出可连接的手机镜头。HTC智能机配备磁透镜，索尼出售可在Android和iOS手机上运行的美模镜头。

　　苹果可连接的镜头很可能类似于HTC的镜头，有一个外部镜片。

　　考虑到便利性，苹果可能采用更时尚、更小的镜头，可以无缝集成到iOS系统中。特别是iPhone 6尺寸将变大，可交互摄像头镜片可能正是iPhone 6所缺的。

　　Apple has just been granted a new patent for interchangeable iPhone camera lenses that would significantly improve the quality of photos.

　　The patent was filed on Sept. 7, 2012, and could foreshadow some much-needed enhancements to Facebook albums everywhere.

　　The patent explains that the "bayonet attachment mechanisms" would secure a lens to the outside of an electronic device. These complicated mechanisms, attachments, apertures, and bayonets are all to say that you would be able to switch around fancy lenses that would let you take higher-quality pictures on your phone.

　　As Ars Technica points out, this most certainly is not the first time anyone has tried to come up with attachable lenses for phones. VicTsing offers magnetic lenses for HTC smartphones, and Sony sells aesthetically overwhelming lenses that operate like complete cameras and communicate wirelessly with Android and iOS phones.

　　Apple's own take on the attachable lens will most likely resemble the former option, with an external lens that uses the phone's existing sensor and storage.

　　While alternatives are already in the market, Apple owning the attachment would likely translate into sleeker, smaller lenses that seamlessly integrate into iOS. Especially with the iPhone expected to grow in size, interchangeable camera lenses may be just what the iPhone 6 is missing.
