The invention relates to a pinhole camera comprising a cleaning chamber for maintaining the quality of images taken by the pinhole camera, the pinhole camera comprising a lens having a rectangular cross-section, a cover glass in front of the lens, for preventing the access of washing liquid, air and impurities into the camera. Furthermore, the camera comprises a cleaning chamber formed between the cover glass and the wall comprising the pinhole of the pinhole camera by means of a flange, the flange being provided with an opening from which compressed air and washing liquid can be supplied by a tube into the cleaning chamber, for cleaning the cleaning chamber. The compressed air and the washing liquid are configured to exit the cleaning chamber via the pinhole of the pinhole camera. Furthermore, the invention relates to a web monitoring beam and a system for cleaning the pinhole camera.

A three-dimensional scanner calibration system comprises: a three-dimensional coordinate providing means; a moving means for moving the three-dimensional coordinate providing means; and a control unit, wherein the control unit extracts three-dimensional coordinates at which the moved three-dimensional coordinate providing means is located and measures a relationship between each pixels of a camera and the three-dimensional coordinate providing means at the location of the three-dimensional coordinate providing means.

The camera glasses are a personal security device adapted for use with eyeglasses. The camera glasses are fitted with a plurality of cameras that are configured to record the surroundings of the user. Each of the plurality of cameras are mounted on the eyeglasses such that one or more front cameras record a video recording of the activities in front of the user while one or more back cameras record a video recording of the activities behind the user. The camera glasses may be placed in a recording mode. Alternatively a panic switch is provided that will initiate video recordings from all of the plurality of cameras. In addition, the panic switch will initiate an audio recording of the situation and activate an audible alarm in order to draw attention to a potentially dangerous situation. The camera glasses comprises a plurality of cameras, eyeglasses, and a recording unit.

A device for measuring strain and volume of a soil sample including an enclosure adapted to receive a soil sample within another enclosure. A base adapted to hold the sample enclosure. The device also has a plurality of moveable arms located between the enclosures which may be a spaced distance apart and adapted to move around the sample. Cameras as included on the arms.

The present disclosure relates to an imaging device and an imaging method capable of improving image quality of an image reconstructed by a lensless camera.

By using a mask containing a light-shielding material that shields incident light and provided with a telephoto pattern including a light-shielding region and a plurality of transmission regions that transmits the incident light in a part of the light-shielding material and is configured in the vicinity of a center and a wide-angle pattern that is an outer edge portion of the telephoto pattern and has a pitch larger than that of the telephoto pattern, the incident light is modulated and transmitted. Incident light modulated by the telephoto pattern is imaged as a telephoto imaging result, and incident light modulated by the wide-angle pattern of the mask is imaged as a wide-angle imaging result. A telephoto image is reconstructed on the basis of the telephoto imaging result, and a wide-angle image is reconstructed on the basis of the wide-angle imaging result. The present disclosure can be applied to a camera mounted on a smartphone.
