EXTERNAL LIGHT SOURCE FOR MOBILE DEVICES
20220187684 · 2022-06-16 ·

an external light source is designed as an external flashgun for mobile devices consisting of a xenon flash tube with associated electronic circuitry, whereby the external light source is arranged to operate in at least two modes, in the single flash mode and in the apparent uniform flash mode. The mode of the external light source's operation is set automatically based on the exposure time set on the linked mobile device. One or several external light source are arranged to connect to a mobile device via a radio link, whereby the external light source sends timestamps to the linked mobile device in regular intervals via the radio link. Based on the timestamps, an algorithm in the software running on the mobile device calculates the time delay between the moment photo capture starts on the mobile device and the moment of the flash of light being triggered by the external light source, resulting in the entire frame/subject/scene being uniformly lighted.

Insect trap and method
11337414 · 2022-05-24 · ·

An insect trap and a method of using the same. The insect trap includes a housing. The insect trap also includes a glue board receiving space located inside the housing. The insect trap further includes one or more light sources for attracting insects into the housing. The insect trap also includes a camera having a lens. The lens has a front element. The camera is positioned to capture images of a glue board when the glue board is received in the glue board receiving space. There is no line of sight between the or each light source and the front element of the lens. This may prevent light from the or each light source reaching the front element directly. The method can include using an image captured by the camera to determine that a glue board received in the glue board receiving space needs to be replaced.

Accessory strobe interface

An accessory strobe device for a mobile device may operate to provide illumination at the same time as an internal built-in strobe (flash) of the mobile device. The accessory strobe device may receive a single, unidirectional signal from the mobile device that provides signals related to the timing of the internal strobe. The accessory strobe device may process the received signal to control its illumination using the timing and relative intensity levels of the internal strobe during metering and main (normal) flash operations associated with a camera on the mobile device. With the accessory strobe device operating using timing and relative intensity levels in a predetermined relationship with the timing and relative intensity levels of the internal strobe, the accessory strobe device may be used to complement the internal strobe during the metering and main (normal) flash operations for the camera.
