Facial interfaces for head-mounted displays and related systems and methods
A head-mounted display may include a frame for supporting an electronic display for viewing by an intended user donning the head-mounted display. The frame may include a flange disposed on a perimeter area of the frame and a facial interface configured to abut against an intended user's face wherein the facial interface comprises a foam body and an undercut region in the foam body that is sized and shaped for detachably engaging with the flange of the frame. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
CASING MEMBER FOR IN-VEHICLE CAMERA AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
A casing member for an in-vehicle camera, obtained by injection molding a resin composition that comprises 100 to 300 parts by mass of a total of a fibrous inorganic filler and a non-fibrous inorganic filler to 100 parts by mass of a polyarylene sulfide resin and has a content of an elastomer of 10% by mass or less, and satisfying the following conditions (A) and (B). (A) When a molded product of a predetermined shape is injection molded using the resin composition under predetermined conditions, an absolute value of (shrinkage rate in a direction perpendicular to a flow direction)−(shrinkage rate in the flow direction) is 0.5% or less. (B) A water absorption rate of a molded product of a predetermined shape that is injection molded using the resin composition under predetermined conditions is 0.3% or less when subjected to a predetermined hot water immersion test.
SENSOR SYSTEM AND SENSOR UNIT
A sensor system to be mounted on a vehicle includes a LiDAR, a camera, a housing that accommodates the LiDAR and the camera and a cleaner that is attached to the housing and has at least one nozzle configured to clean a first cleaning target surface corresponding to the LiDAR and a second cleaning target surface corresponding to the camera at the same time using a cleaning medium.
PROTECTIVE FILM REMOVING APPARATUS AND METHOD EACH FOR REMOVING A PROTECTIVE FILM FROM AN OPTICAL LENS
A protective film removal device has a first removal station for releasing a protective film from an optical lens first surface, a lens holder which has an imaginary central axis, at least one fluid nozzle having a nozzle exit duct, and a rotary mounting between the lens holder and the fluid nozzle(s). The rotary mounting is configured such that a relative movement about the central axis is able to be carried out by the fluid nozzle(s), wherein the nozzle exit duct of the fluid nozzle(s) is in each case oriented inwards. A lifting device between the lens holder and the fluid nozzle(s) is configured in such that a relative movement in relation to the lens holder, said relative movement being oriented along the central axis, is able to be carried out by the fluid nozzle(s). A method for releasing a protective film from a lens surface is also disclosed.
ANTI-FOG DEVICE HAVING LIQUID LENS ASSEMBLY WITH SPACE ISOLATED BY THIN FILM AND LENS INCLUDING THE SAME
The present invention relates to an anti-fog device including: a lens unit including a first lens positioned outside and a second lens spaced apart from the first lens while facing the first lens to form an internal space and having a liquid filled in the internal space; a temperature control unit controlling a temperature of the liquid; and a circulation unit of which one side is connected to the internal space and the other side is connected to the temperature control unit to form a passage through which the liquid circulates. According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent record deterioration of a sports event or an accident during exercise by preventing occurrence of fog of goggles or swimming goggles to secure a visual field.
CAMERA MODULE WITH DROPLET REMOVING DEVICE
A camera module is provided. The camera module includes: a housing; a lens barrel disposed in the housing; a cover screen disposed over the lens barrel; a blade pivotably coupled to the cover screen and configured to have at least a portion in contact with a surface of the cover screen; and a rotation member disposed on the blade and configured to pivot the blade with respect to the cover screen.
Member, imaging apparatus, and method for producing member
Provided are a transparent member having excellent transparency and maintaining anti-fogging properties for a long period of time and a method for producing a transparent member. A transparent member includes a substrate and a stacked body having an organic layer and an inorganic porous layer stacked on the substrate in the mentioned order such that the both layers are in contact with each other, in which the organic layer includes an organic molecular chain network including an organic polymer chain and an organic crosslinking chain having 3 or more to 30 or less carbon atoms, and an acidic group aggregate, and in which the inorganic porous layer has hydrophilicity and includes silicon oxide.
Lens water dispersion
Systems and methods are disclosed for lens water dispersion. For example, an image capture device may include a lens mounted on a body of the image capture device; an image sensor mounted within the body, behind the lens and configured to capture images based on light incident on the image sensor through the lens; and a dispersion structure around a perimeter of the lens on an external surface of the body, wherein the dispersion structure includes gaps sized to cause capillary action to move water away from the lens, from a first edge of the dispersion structure to a second edge of the dispersion structure.
Vehicle sensor cleaning systems
Systems, devices, and methods for cleaning a sensor are provided. A sensor can include a housing. The housing can include a curved lens. The sensor can further include an inlet configured to receive a pressurized fluid. The sensor can further include a rotatable fluid distributor positioned within the housing. The rotatable fluid distributor can be configured to receive the pressurized fluid from the inlet. The sensor can further include a plurality of nozzles positioned around an exterior of the housing. Each of the plurality of nozzles can be configured to direct a flow of the pressurized fluid onto at least a portion of the curved lens. When the pressurized fluid is provided to the inlet, the rotatable fluid distributor can be configured to receive the pressurized fluid from the inlet and distribute the pressurized fluid to only a subset of the plurality of nozzles at any time.
Camera and vehicle
A camera with a low maintenance burden is provided. A camera (1) includes a housing (2) having an opening (21), a lens (3) accommodated in the housing (2) to collect light entering through the opening (21), a shutter (4) that opens and closes the opening (21), and a contact member (5) attached to an inner surface of the shutter (4) to come in contact with the lens (3).
