1. A camera module, comprising:
a first light-redirecting member, configured to redirect light incident into the camera module;
a lens assembly, configured to transmit the light redirected by the first light-redirecting member;
an image sensor, wherein the lens assembly is disposed between the first light-redirecting member and the image sensor, and the light is transmitted from the first light-redirecting member to the lens assembly and further transmitted to the image sensor; and
a focusing assembly, configured to receive and transmit the light transmitting through the lens assembly to the image sensor, wherein the focusing assembly comprises a second light-redirecting member and a third light-redirecting member configured to change a transmission distance of the light from the lens assembly to the image sensor by redirecting the light;
wherein a direction in which the light is incident into the focusing assembly is substantially parallel to a direction in which the light is exited out of the focusing assembly; and
wherein the camera module further comprises a fixing member, and the fixing member comprises:
a top wall, defining a light incident hole;
a bottom wall, opposite to the top wall; and
a plurality of side walls, connected to the top wall and the bottom wall, wherein the top wall, the bottom wall, and the plurality of side walls cooperatively define a receiving space, and the plurality of side walls comprises:
a first side wall;
a second side wall, connected to the first side wall;
a third side wall, connected to the first side wall; and
a fourth side wall, connected to the second side wall and the third side wall, and the image sensor is disposed on the fourth side wall;
wherein the bottom wall is connected to the first side wall, the second side wall, the third side wall, and the fourth side wall at one side of the first side wall, and the top wall is connected to the first side wall, the second side wall, the third side wall, and the fourth side wall at an opposite side of the first side wall;
wherein a portion of the third side wall at a position adjacent to the fourth side wall protrudes outwardly in a direction away from the second side wall to form a bent portion;
wherein the bent portion, the bottom wall, and the top wall cooperatively define a containing space, and the third light-redirecting member is partially received in the containing space; and
wherein the image sensor is a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensor.
