An underwater light and camera system having a video camera with a camera lens, a pool light with a light source and a pool light lens, and an anti-reflective shield surrounding a clear portion of the pool light lens. The pool light lens has the clear portion and a plurality of ribs disposed on an outer surface of the pool light lens, other than on the clear portion of the pool light lens. The anti-reflective shield is darkened to prevent light from the light source and light reflecting off a portion of the pool light lens disposed outside the anti-reflective shield to directly reach the camera lens.

An imaging system having a forward and rearward orientation and comprising: (a) one or more parabolic reflectors having a base, a focus, and a reflector axis, said one or more parabolic reflectors defining a central reflector axis; (b) at least one a light source disposed near or essentially at said focus of each of said one or more parabolic reflectors forward of its base; and (c) an imaging device disposed within said one or more parabolic reflectors, and comprising a zooming lens having an optical axis essentially coincident with said central reflector axis.

A device includes a light-emitting device (LED) having at least two vertical light-emitting sides, and a ring-shaped light guide having a bottom side, a top side comprising a light-emitting surface, an inner sidewall, and an outer sidewall defining an indentation having at least two vertical in-coupling surfaces mated to the at least two vertical light-emitting sides of the LED.

A lighting device for film and television for attachment to a light fixture has interconnected preferably trapezoidal panels connected to adjacent panels along opposing ends within a fabric sleeve, the wider edges of the panels connectable to the lighting fixture. Each panel has a corrugated plastic core and fibreglass rods inserted perpendicular to the parallel edges of the panels adjacent a first end, adjacent an opposing second end, and at a medial position. A hinge having attachment means is provided at one end of the extension housing. The device may be folded upon itself to about of its original size and requires no assembly as it is a single unit. Although the enclosure is collapsible, once it is attached to any light fixture it becomes a rigid frame that does not collapse.

A flash system for an electronic device includes a ring-shaped light guide having a central opening. A camera lens is positioned in or behind the opening. A first light emitting diode (LED) is mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB), and the LED and PCB are encapsulated by a molded light guide of the flash system. An identical LED and PCB are encapsulated at an opposite end of the molded light guide (i.e., 180 degrees away). The back surfaces of each PCB diffusively reflects light from the LED on the other PCB. Light extraction features on the light guide surface uniformly leak out light from the LEDs. The light emission profile of the light guide has a peak axially aligned with the central opening of the light guide and rolls off to the edge of the camera's field of view.

The present disclosure provides a camera assembly. The camera assembly includes a camera subassembly, a flash subassembly, a composite plate, and an annular light shielding member. The camera subassembly includes a camera. The flash subassembly includes a flash. The composite plate covers the camera subassembly and the flash subassembly. The composite plate is provided with a first hole enabling ambient lights to pass through the first hole and reach the camera subassembly. The composite plate is provided with a second hole enabling lights emitted from the flash to pass through the second hole and reach outside. The annular light shielding member is disposed on an internal wall of the first hole. The annular light shielding member is configured to prevent the lights emitted from the flash from reaching the camera.

A light-emitting device includes: a plurality of light-emitting elements arranged in an array on a base member; and a compound eye lens that includes a plurality of lens parts disposed above the base member and facing the plurality of light-emitting elements. The plurality of light-emitting elements are arranged such that each of the plurality of light-emitting elements faces a corresponding one of the lens parts, and a center of each of the plurality of light-emitting elements is offset from a lens center of the corresponding one of the lens parts of the compound eye lens in a direction toward a center of the compound eye lens in a plan view. The plurality of light-emitting elements include first light-emitting elements and second light-emitting elements that are alternately arranged, wherein an emission color of the first light-emitting elements is different from an emission color of the second light-emitting elements.

An optical lighting accessory is described for use with a handheld mobile device in photography or videography applications. The handheld mobile device includes at least a rear-facing camera and light source. The optical lighting accessory includes an accessory case having optical light ports and an attachment member for securing the device to the accessory case, an optical element coupled to at least one of the optical light ports, the optical element configured to receive, capture and communicate a plurality of light rays emitted by the light source, and a light diffuser layer coupled to the optical element and configured to receive the light rays communicated by the optical element, the light diffuser layer transforms the light rays into a diffused light source, the diffuser layer is configured to communicate the diffused light source to the rear-facing camera.
