An image pickup apparatus that does not disturb an image pickup operation irrespective of an image pickup posture and is capable of reducing generation of image blur. The image pickup apparatus including a main body, a frame part, and at least one operating member. The main body has an image pickup lens. The frame part forms an opening together with a part of the main body and has an opening/closing member that opens/closes the opening. The operating member is used to enter a predetermined pickup instruction and is arranged in at least one of a first surface at an object side and a second surface opposite to the first surface that are parallel to an opening plane of the opening in the main body.

An image pickup apparatus that does not disturb a photographing operation, has high portability, and facilitates attachment and detachment. The image pickup apparatus includes a body part and a frame part. The body part has an image pickup lens. The frame part has an opening. The frame part is provided with a notch section that is formed by cutting out a part of the frame part in a direction different from a natural falling direction of the image pickup apparatus.

An image capture apparatus detects an eye approaching to a finder, switches between a locked state in which execution of a function corresponding to an operation on a touch panel having a display surface of a display unit capable of displaying a captured image as an operation surface is restricted and an unlocked state in which the execution of the function is not restricted, and performs control such that in the locked state, even if a specific operation is performed on the touch panel without detecting the eye approaching, predetermined processing corresponding to the specific operation is not executed, and the predetermined processing is executed in response to the specific operation on the touch panel being performed in a state where a predetermined condition including detection of the eye approaching is satisfied.

The present invention is directed to a medical device (521) for inspecting and/or accessing a patient, the device including: a base (520); an image capturing device for capturing images of the patient (541), the image capturing device being located in the base; means to communicate the captured image to a display for displaying said captured image; wherein the base includes one or more openings (525) through which the patient is able to be directly inspected, the one or more openings being located around the image capturing device (541).

A movable unit of an electronic apparatus is movable between an accommodated position within an apparatus body and a use position projected therefrom. The movable unit popped up by pop-up springs are further popped up by an assist lever and a toggle spring. The toggle spring urges the assist lever in a first arc direction and urges the same in a second arc direction opposite to the first arc direction after passing an inflexion point. The assist lever is brought into contact with a first latching pin when the movable unit reaches an end point of a movement stroke After the movable unit has reached the end point of the movement stroke, the assist lever is brought into contact with the first latching pin to urge the movable unit in the same direction as urged by the pop-up spring.

A reception unit receives an eye direction input that is an input based on an eye tracking process, and a control unit controls movement of a selected position based on an operation on an operation member. The control unit performs control such that, in a first state in which the selected position is not designated based on the eye direction input, the selected position is moved, in response to the operation member being operated by a predetermined operation amount, by a first amount from a position set before the operation member is operated, and that, in a second state in which the selected position is designated based on the eye direction input, the selected position is moved, in response to the operation member being operated by the predetermined operation amount, by a second amount smaller than the first amount from a position based on the eye direction input.

An inspection device includes a wearable camera attached to a worker that images an inspection object, and a laser pointer that indicates an imaging region of the wearable camera to the worker. The laser pointer is attached to the worker to emit a laser beam in a direction parallel to a line of sight of the wearable camera such that a relative distance between a light point of the laser beam and the imaging region of the wearable camera is constant and does not vary depending on a distance between the laser pointer and the workpiece.
