Patent attributes
This application discloses a camera including a holding element and a base assembly. The holding element further includes a camera portion for holding a camera sensor, an extended portion that extends from the camera portion, and a fastener structure coupled to an end of the extended portion located opposite another end of the extended portion where the camera module is located. The base assembly further includes a base shaped to rest against a supporting surface, a joint structure configured to mate with the fastener structure, and a magnet configured to magnetically couple the camera to the supporting surface. In some implementations, the camera further includes a mounting structure that is configured to be attached and fixed onto the supporting surface. The camera is mounted onto the supporting surface when the base of the base assembly magnetically adheres onto the mounting structure.
