A state detection device includes a camera configured to capture an image of an imaging area where a driver is present, a laser configured to emit light toward the imaging area, and an optical member configured to emit the light of the laser with spreading to a predetermined irradiation area.

HEATSINKS FOR AN IMAGE CAPTURE DEVICE

An image capture device including first and second heatsinks and a printed circuit board that separates the first and second heatsinks and includes a processor configured to generate heat. The image capture device includes a conductor assembly that is configured to transfer heat by conduction and extends between the first heatsink, the processor, and the second heatsink.

VEHICULAR EXTERIOR CAMERA WITH VACUUM SEALED LENS ASSEMBLY

A vehicular camera assembly includes a lens barrel accommodating at least an outer lens element and an inner lens element. An imager printed circuit board (imager PCB) includes an imager disposed at a side. The lens barrel is disposed at the housing such that the imager is aligned with the inner lens element and the outer lens element, with the inner lens element disposed closer to the imager than the outer lens element. A vacuum exists in a space between the outer lens element and the inner lens element to thermally insulate an outer surface of the outer lens element from an inner surface of the inner lens element. Light passing through the outer lens element, the vacuum, and the inner lens element is imaged by the imager.
