An anti-shake mechanism, a camera module, and an electronic device are provided. The anti-shake mechanism includes: a support plate; a first printed circuit board; a support column fixedly installed on the first printed circuit board; a tilt angle detection mechanism, configured to detect a tilt angle of the support plate and a tilt direction of the support plate; an angle adjustment mechanism, connected between the support plate and the first printed circuit board; and a driving apparatus connected to the tilt angle detection mechanism and the angle adjustment mechanism, respectively. An end of the support column away from the first printed circuit board contacts the support plate. The driving apparatus receives an angle signal collected by the tilt angle detection mechanism, and drives the angle adjustment mechanism to enable the support plate to rotate around the support column.

A monitoring device may comprise: a base; a body rotatably connected to the base; a camera installed on the body; a lighting assembly rotatably connected to the body and having a first limit position and a second limit position on a path of rotation relative to the body. A light-emitting surface of the lighting assembly in the first limit position faces a shooting direction of the camera, and the light-emitting surface of the lighting assembly in the second limit position faces away from the shooting direction of the camera.

A parallel link apparatus includes: a base section; three or more deployment sections that extend radially from the base section and that are pivotable with end parts coupled to the base section being pivot axes; arm sections that are coupled to end parts, of the respective deployment sections, that are on opposite sides of the end parts coupled to the base section, and are pivotable with respect to the deployment sections and expandable and contractible in one direction independently of each other; and a movable section coupled to each of second ends, of the arm sections, that are on opposite sides of first ends, of the arm sections, coupled to the deployment sections.

A mounting seat is connected to a doorbell includes a mounting portion, an extendable portion, and a connecting portion. The mounting portion is connected to a mounting surface. The extendable portion is connected to the mounting portion. The extendable portion could be extended or retracted by exerting force. The extendable portion includes a first extendable section and a second extendable section. The connecting portion is connected between the extendable portion and the doorbell. When the first extendable section is extended or retracted relative to the mounting portion, the extendable portion drives the connecting portion and the doorbell to turn along a first axis. When the second extendable section is extended or retracted relative to the mounting portion, the extendable portion drives the connecting portion and the doorbell to turn along a second axis. The first axis is not parallel to the second axis.

A system and apparatus for automated image capturing, comprising a microcontroller, an image capturing device operatively coupled to the pair of guiding apparatus using a first electric rotary actuator, a rotary plate operatively mounted on a second electric rotary actuator. The pair of guiding apparatus and the first electric rotary actuator is actuated to cause change in position of the image capturing device relative to an object positioned on the rotary plate and second electric rotary actuator is actuated causing change in angle of orientation of the object positioned on the rotary plate. By varying lighting conditions and for different background images, plurality of images of object are captured using the image capturing device by actuating electro-mechanical components of the apparatus.

A multi-view vision inspection system includes a darkroom; and a plurality of cameras, the plurality of cameras including a plurality of first cameras, a plurality of second cameras and a plurality of third cameras, the plurality of first cameras being arranged spaced from one another at a top of an interior of the darkroom, the plurality of second cameras being arranged spaced from one another at a bottom of the interior of the darkroom, and the plurality of third cameras being arranged spaced from one another on a side wall of the interior of the darkroom in a circumferential direction of the darkroom. The multi-view vision inspection system can measure each angle of a workpiece to be inspected by using the plurality of cameras above.

A camera mount, comprising: a body, one or more magnets, and one or more pins. The one or more magnets located within the body and configured to connect to a magnetic portion or a ferromagnetic portion of a camera. The one or more pins that extend axially outward from the body above the one or more magnets and are configured to extend into recesses within the camera.

A photography stand configured to aid in a taking of self or group photograph(s). The photography stand is placed in a visited location where photographs are frequently taken with a background of interest. The photography stand comprises a post, a platform, and a holder configured to hold a camera enabled handheld electronic device. The platform has a top surface that is textured and a bottom surface attaches to a top end of the post. The platform is stationary, but in alternative embodiments, the platform spins at the connection with the post. The stand also can be placed into the ground or can include a base on a bottom end of the post which allows the stand to be placed on the ground. The base may include one or more wheels to move the stand.

Adjustment of a posture of a ball joint is facilitated. A support device includes a pan head unit, a ball joint having a first end to which the pan head unit is attached and a second end provided with a ball portion, a ball holder configured to selectively fix the ball portion, a ball fixing screw connected to the ball holder and configured to move the ball holder between a locked position at which the ball portion is fixed and an unlocked position at which the ball portion is freely rotatable, and an elastic member configured to urge the ball holder toward the ball portion. The ball holder and the ball fixing screw are connected to each other so as to be strokable with a predetermined stroke amount. The predetermined stroke amount is smaller than a movement amount of the ball fixing screw between a first position corresponding to the locked position and a second position corresponding to the unlocked position.
