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.

Methods of processing a viscous ribbon include supplying a molten material from a supply vessel. Methods include forming the molten material into the viscous ribbon. The viscous ribbon travels along a travel path. Methods include receiving thermal light energy produced from the viscous ribbon. Methods include generating an image of the viscous ribbon from the thermal light energy. Methods include detecting a defect of the viscous ribbon from the image.

An imaging element captures an optical image incident through an imaging lens. A finder device is configured to be capable of observing the optical image. An EVFLCD displays information to be observable in a state of being overlapped on or being close to the optical image, in the finder device. An EVF display controller controls the EVFLCD so that target color temperature information indicating a color temperature that is a target of color temperature adjustment and image color temperature information indicating a color temperature of the captured image are displayed as the information. A color temperature adjustment unit adjusts the color temperature of the captured image obtained by capturing the optical image using the imaging element based on a color temperature adjustment operation. In a case where the color temperature adjustment operation is performed, the image color temperature information is changed in accordance with an adjustment operation amount.

An optoelectronic sensor is provided that has an image sensor for the detection of image data in its field of view and an aiming device having a light source that is arranged laterally offset from the image sensor and that is configured to generate alignment light and thus a light pattern in the field of view to make the position and/or extent of the field of view in space visible. In this respect, the aiming device has at least one optical metaelement having a metasurface and/or a metamaterial that is arranged and configured such that the optical axes of the image sensor and the aiming device are coaxially superposed.

An optic providing reduction in secondary or ghost images includes a beam splitter, a reflective surface, and at least one baffle therebetween. A transmissive surface may be located between the beam splitter and the reflective surface. The baffle is positioned to intercept internally reflected ghost rays while being substantially parallel to outside light rays along a line of sight of the viewer, permitting use in see-through optics. The baffles may be formed of diffusing structures, light absorbing material, and combinations of both. Baffles intercept and scatter or absorb ghost rays to the exclusion of projected image rays that provide a desired projected image which are internally reflected through the optic. An assembly including such optic integrated with a wearable vision system, such as a head-mounted display, is also disclosed for near-eye application.

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.
