Samsung ISOCELL's All Lenses on Prism (ALoP) is a new and better periscope design

Samsung's imaging team has come up with a new design for a folded telephoto camera module that would allow for a brighter lens (f/2.58 at 80mm) and a thinner overall footprint.

Called ALoP (All Lenses on Prism), it essentially moves the lens array on top of the periscope prism, instead of in between the prism and the imaging sensor, as it is in a conventional folded design.

This is because in a typical folded telephoto module design, increasing the pupil diameter of the lens (making it wider and brighter) would increase the module's height. With ALoP technology, you can have a wider...
