"As part of our ongoing R&D programme we are also looking at zoom versions of the lens," said Ruffin. "We have previously demonstrated a zoom system using two liquid lenses and we are working to achieve the small size demanded by the phone manufacturers."

The company has also developed its own 2 Mpixel autofocus liquid-lens camera module with the aim of accelerating the camera-phone market, but the company's longer-term aim is to supply liquid-lens systems only and leave the camera module developments to its customers.
