Meanwhile, Xiaomi will also launch the new-gen Mi Mix phone that is teased to feature a ‘liquid camera lens,’ apart from the new Mi 11 smartphones. The tech has been available on industrial applications for years, but it’ll be interesting to see its presence on a smartphone. A liquid lens uses one or more fluids to create an infinitely-variable lens without any moving parts by controlling the meniscus (the reflective surface of the liquid). It essentially allows the lens to change focus and focal length seamlessly, similar to the human eye. The lens-focus is changed rapidly by applying an electrical voltage. The benefit of the camera tech on a smartphone could be that one camera sensor can perform several functionalities.
