Abstract:
Techniques for switchable camera mirror apparatus are described. In one or more embodiments, a computing device (e.g., a tablet device, a smartphone, and so on) includes a camera functionality that is configured to capture images from a variety of different device perspectives. The camera functionality, for instance, can enable images to be captured from a front-facing device perspective, a rear-facing device perspective, and so on. Included as part of the camera functionality is a switchable mirror apparatus that is switchable to alternately reflect light from different device perspectives, such as to enable images to be captured from at least some of the different device perspectives using a single image sensor.
