An accessory mounting apparatus and system are provided. The system includes a structural framing, an accessory mounting apparatus, and an accessory. The accessory mounting apparatus includes a first component, a second component, and a connector arm. The first component includes a first base, a first rail connector that extends from the first base, and one or more first connectors. The second component includes a second base and a second rail connector that extends from the second base. The connector arm includes a second connector and a mounting arm, and the second connector is coupled to the one or more first connectors. Further, the first rail connector and the second rail connector are configured to engage a first rail slot and a second rail slot of the structural framing, accordingly. Additionally, the accessory is coupled to the mounting arm.

A multipod apparatus and a monopod tip apparatus are described. The multipod apparatus includes a plurality of legs, each of the plurality of legs formed as a leg assembly wherein each leg assembly includes an upper leg section and a lower leg section, a base coupled to the upper leg sections of the plurality of legs and including a leg lock plate and a securing mechanism engaged with the leg lock plate of the base and configured to apply pressure to the leg lock plate so as to secure each of the plurality of legs at a desirable angle. The monopod tip apparatus includes a monopod tip including a cap section and a base section and a concealable stud, wherein the cap section includes a tip cap hingedly connected to a cap body and arranged to conceal the concealable stud therein.

A moving decoy support system for easy placement of decoys on stakes, and natural motion. The moving decoy support system generally includes a motion cone for the decoy, in which the motion cone has a first end, a second end, and a cavity extending into the first end toward the second end. The cavity has an opening at the first end and an upper surface at the second end which supports the decoy on a stake. The motion cone is mountable in the bottom of the decoy body. The motion cone may also have an upper, cylindrical portion and a funnel-shaped portion at the opening, so that the opening is larger than the inside, top of the cone. This allows for easier placement of the decoy on the stake. The motion cone allows the decoy to rotate and rock on the stake, giving the appearance of natural motion.

A display apparatus includes a display module, and a rotator coupled to the display module and provided to rotate the display module between a first mode in which the display module is vertically disposed and a second mode in which the display module is horizontally disposed, and the rotator includes a driving motor configured to provide a driving force, a first gear configured to rotate around a first rotating axis parallel to a driving axis of the driving motor by the driving force from the driving motor, and a second gear configured to mesh with the first gear and rotate around a second rotating axis parallel to the driving axis and the first rotating axis, and the first gear includes a first gear part, and the second gear comprises a second gear part, and the first gear part and the second gear part are formed to increase a rotational resistance between the first gear and the second gear when the display module rotates in a first direction in the first mode.

Provided are a method and system for producing photographic images of an object about multiple axes, the method comprising: suspending the object; rotating the object around a first axis allowing multiple photographic images of the object to be captured about the first axis by an imaging device; and rotating the imaging device about the object around a second axis allowing multiple photographic images of the object to be captured about the second axis by the imaging device.
