With the widespread installation of notebook PC cameras, branded vendors are
extending the use of built-in cameras from the consumer to commercial notebook
PC market. In 2012 the share of notebook PCs with built-in cameras is
anticipated to reach around 91.3%, with the global market volume arriving at
around 185.59 million units. However, the notebook PC camera market growth is
subdued and price competition in the industry is intensifying, coupled with
increasing low-price competition among notebook PCs, the profit margins of
notebook PC cameras are narrowing as a result. In addition, with a tendency
going for slimmer notebook PCs, how the height of notebook PC cameras can be
reduced amid increasing demand for notebook PC cameras with high quality
recording capabilities will pose new challenges for camera module manufacturers
