Camera module
One embodiment of a camera module includes: a lens barrel provided with at least one lens; and a lens holder having the lens barrel coupled thereto, wherein the lens barrel may have a first adhesive part formed thereon having the bottom surface thereof facing the top surface of the lens holder and adhered to the lens holder, the lens holder may have a second adhesive part formed thereon having the top surface thereof facing the bottom surface of the lens barrel and adhered to the lens barrel, and a first recessed groove having at least a portion of an adhesive deposited therein may be formed in the second adhesive part.
Methods and apparatus for generating a three-dimensional reconstruction of an object with reduced distortion
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for generating a three-dimensional reconstruction of an object with reduced distortion are described. In some aspects, a system includes at least two image sensors, at least two projectors, and a processor. Each image sensor is configured to capture one or more images of an object. Each projector is configured to illuminate the object with an associated optical pattern and from a different perspective. The processor is configured to perform the acts of receiving, from each image sensor, for each projector, images of the object illuminated with the associated optical pattern and generating, from the received images, a three-dimensional reconstruction of the object. The three-dimensional reconstruction has reduced distortion due to the received images of the object being generated when each projector illuminates the object with an associated optical pattern from the different perspective.

Vehicle head-up display system
A display system for a vehicle includes a head-up display unit operable to display at a display area information that is viewable by a driver of the equipped vehicle when the driver is normally operating the equipped vehicle. When not displaying images at the display area but when the head-up display unit projects some light, there is a postcard effect at the display area. The head-up display unit includes a display screen and a compensation film that attenuates light passing through the display screen to reduce the postcard effect at the display area of the equipped vehicle.

Digital image filtering and post-capture processing using user specific data
There are provided systems and methods for digital image filtering and post-capture processing using user specific data. A computing device may include a camera that records media of a scene, including images or videos. A user may utilize the computing device to add filters, graphical overlays, or other effects to the recorded media, which may alter pixel data for pixels of the media or blend graphics into the media. When adding image effects to images, the device or a service provider that offers and image hosting and/or sharing platform may determine recommendations for particular image effects to use when recording and processing the image. The recommended effects may be based on effects used in past media, as well as user information, and may change an appearance of the output media in a particular way specific to the user, media, and/or scene.

CONTROL OF LIGHT SPREADING WITH BLURRING ELEMENT IN PROJECTOR SYSTEMS
Projection systems and/or methods comprising a blurring element are disclosed. In one embodiment, a blurring element may comprise a first plate having a pattern on a first surface and second plate. The first plate and the second plate may comprise material having a slight difference in their respective index of refraction. In another embodiment, a blurring element may comprise a first plate having a pattern thereon and a second immersing material. The blurring element may be placed in between two modulators in a dual or multi-modulator projector system. The blurring element may be configured to give a desired shape to the light transmitted from a first modulator to a second modulator.

VIDEO CAPTURE
A back-lit screen comprising: a rigid frame extending around the periphery of the screen and having a front face, the front face having an interior face which defines an opening, and an outer face which defines the exterior contour of the frame transversely to the opening; and a translucent sheet extending across the opening; the frame being configured so that over at least a part of the periphery of the screen the forward-most part of the interior face is coincident with the exterior contour of the frame.
