The ancestor of the modern camera is this pinhole camera or Camera Obscura. And this pinhole camera was first invented by Ibn al-Haytham, whom the Firingians called 'al Hazen'.
You can say it is the simplest camera model. No lens is used here.
Ibn al-Haytham uses the term in his book (البيت المضلم), which translates to "darkroom".
