In order to enhance security of a parked vehicle, an image transmitting device to be mounted on a vehicle includes: a checking unit that checks, at a parking place of the vehicle, communicability with an external device outside of the vehicle, that is, whether an image can be transmitted from the parking place to the external device; a providing unit that provides notification information based on a result of the checking by the checking unit; a capturing unit that captures an image while the vehicle is parked; and a transmitting unit that transmits the image captured by the capturing unit to the external device.

A portable retinal imaging device for imaging the fundus of the eye. The device includes an ocular imaging device containing ocular lensing and filters, a fixation display, and a light source, and is configured for coupling to a mobile device containing a camera, display, and application programming for controlling retinal imaging. The light source is configured for generating a sustained low intensity light (e.g., IR wavelength) during preview, followed by a light flash during image capture. The ocular imaging device works in concert with application programming on the mobile device to control subject gaze through using a fixation target when capturing retinal imaging on the mobile device, which are then stitched together using imaging processing into an image having a larger field of view.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide systems and methods for motion capture to generate content (e.g., motion pictures, television programming, videos, etc.). An actor or other performing being can have multiple markers on his or her face that are essentially invisible to the human eye, but that can be clearly captured by camera systems of the present disclosure. Embodiments can capture the performance using two different camera systems, each of which can observe the same performance but capture different images of that performance. For instance, a first camera system can capture the performance within a first light wavelength spectrum (e.g., visible light spectrum), and a second camera system can simultaneously capture the performance in a second light wavelength spectrum different from the first spectrum (e.g., invisible light spectrum such as the IR light spectrum). The images captured by the first and second camera systems can be combined to generate content.

Systems can include a tool configured to generate a first set of data representative of an object and a control station configured to receive the first set of data from the tool. A mobile device in communication with the control station can receive data from the control station including information regarding the object based on the data received from the tool. A user of the mobile device, such as a technician, can travel to the location of the tool, and, when the mobile device is within a predetermined proximity of the tool, the tool can communicate directly with the mobile device. The technician can use the mobile device to communicate with and control the tool in order to safely perform equipment analysis.

A remote-operated working device includes a movement controller that controls movement of the remote-operated working device; a working unit that performs a predetermined work on the work target; a first detector that detects contact between the working unit and the target; and a communicator that transmits a signal for vibrating the remote control to the remote control in a case where contact between the working unit and the work target is detected by the first detector.

Digital camera systems and methods are described that provide a color digital camera with direct luminance detection. The luminance signals are obtained directly from a broadband image sensor channel without interpolation of RGB data. The chrominance signals are obtained from one or more additional image sensor channels comprising red and/or blue color band detection capability. The red and blue signals are directly combined with the luminance image sensor channel signals. The digital camera generates and outputs an image in YCrCb color space by directly combining outputs of the broadband, red and blue sensors.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a gas monitoring program causes a computer to acquire a continuous frame of an infrared image, to calculate a concentration-thickness product of leaking gas in the infrared image, to assume a gas leakage location of the leaking gas in the infrared image, to set a gas type which circulates in a pipe proximate to the gas leakage location as a gas type of the leaking gas by referring to circulating substance information of the piping equipment and matching the gas leakage location, to set a maintenance threshold value for the concentration-thickness product of the leaking gas, to estimate a leakage volume from the gas leakage location per unit of time of the gas type, and to predictively calculate a timing when the concentration-thickness product exceeds the maintenance threshold value on a basis of a time-changing leakage volume per unit of time.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and a device for acquiring depth information, as well as a gesture recognition apparatus. The method includes: projecting an infrared spectrum to a target object; collecting the infrared spectrum reflected by the target object at different positions and generating a first infrared image and a second infrared image respectively; and processing the first infrared image and the second infrared image on a basis of infrared spectrum response characteristics to acquire the depth information of the target object.

The present disclosure is directed to an augmented reality surgical system for viewing an augmented image of a region of interest during a surgical procedure. The system includes an image capture device that captures an image of the region of interest. A controller receives the image and applies at least one image processing filter to the image. The image processing filter includes a spatial decomposition filter that decomposes the image into spatial frequency bands. A temporal filter is applied to the spatial frequency bands to generate temporally filtered bands. An adder adds each band spatial frequency band to a corresponding temporally filtered band to generate augmented bands. A reconstruction filter generates an augmented image by collapsing the augmented bands. A display displays the augmented image to a user.
