Industrial tool imaging
An imaging system may include a housing having shape and size sufficient to receive an industrial tool inserted into the housing. The imaging system may further include a plurality of cameras and a plurality of light sources positioned within the housing in a manner to surround the industrial tool upon insertion of the industrial tool into the housing. The imaging system may include a processing unit to control operation of the cameras and light sources and adjust relative positions of the cameras and light sources in relation to the industrial tool to capture a plurality of images of relevant portions of the industrial tool. The plurality of images collectively reveals substantially all of the relevant portions of the industrial tool. A method and computer-readable medium are also disclosed.
Visual-inertial tracking using rolling shutter cameras
Visual-inertial tracking of an eyewear device using a rolling shutter camera(s). The eyewear device includes a position determining system. Visual-inertial tracking is implemented by sensing motion of the eyewear device. An initial pose is obtained for a rolling shutter camera and an image of an environment is captured. The image includes feature points captured at a particular capture time. A number of poses for the rolling shutter camera is computed based on the initial pose and sensed movement of the device. The number of computed poses is responsive to the sensed movement of the mobile device. A computed pose is selected for each feature point in the image by matching the particular capture time for the feature point to the particular computed time for the computed pose. The position of the mobile device is determined within the environment using the feature points and the selected computed poses for the feature points.
Dual camera module and optical device
The present embodiment relates to a dual camera module comprising a first camera module and a second camera module, wherein: a first magnet unit of the first camera module includes a first magnet and a second magnet, both disposed opposite to each other on a side surface of a first housing; a second magnet unit of the second camera module includes a third to a sixth magnet arranged on four respective corners of a second housing; a third magnet unit is disposed on a side surface of the first housing facing the second housing; the third magnet unit is disposed between the first magnet and the second magnet; and the third magnet unit is smaller than the first magnet and is disposed on a virtual line connecting an optical axis of the first camera module and an optical axis of the second camera module.
Heat spreader for camera
A camera includes an image sensor, a heat diffuser, and a heat spreader. The heat spreader includes a heat source coupled to the image sensor, an arm coupled to the heat source and the heat diffuser, and a heat exchange coupled with the heat source and the arm. A system includes a camera and a heat spreader coupled with the camera. The system includes a stabilizer coupled with the heat spreader and an electronics assembly coupled with the stabilizer. A heat controller for an imaging device that includes a flexible arm and a heat source coupled to the flexible arm that absorbs heat from the imaging device. The heat controller includes a heat exchange coupled to the flexible arm that transfers the heat away from the imaging device via the flexible arm.
Intelligent roadside unit
The present disclosure provides an intelligent roadside unit. The intelligent roadside unit includes: a radar configured to detect an obstacle within a first preset range of the intelligent roadside unit; a camera configured to capture an image of a second preset range of the intelligent roadside unit; a master processor coupled to the radar and the camera, and configured to generate a point cloud image according to information on the obstacle detected by the radar and the image detected by the camera; and a slave processor coupled to the radar and the camera, and configured to generate a point cloud image according to the information on the obstacle detected by the radar and the image detected by the camera, in which the slave processor checks the master processor, and when the original master processor breaks down, it is switched from the master processor to the slave processor.
Vehicular camera with adhesive disposed between non-axially opposed surfaces of the lens barrel and PCB structure
A vehicular camera for a vehicular vision system includes a PCB having an imager disposed thereat, a lens barrel accommodating a lens, and a lens barrel support structure that protrudes from the PCB and at least partially circumscribes the imager. The lens barrel has an outer surface that extends between the ends of the lens barrel. The outer surface of the lens barrel is adhesively bonded to an inner surface of the lens barrel support structure via adhesive. The outer surface of the lens barrel radially opposes the inner surface of the lens barrel support structure where the adhesive is disposed. With the adhesive in its uncured state and contacting the opposed surfaces, the imager is optically aligned with the lens accommodated at the lens barrel. With the imager optically aligned with the lens, the adhesive is cured to adhesively attach the lens barrel at the lens barrel support structure.
Reading device
According to one embodiment, a reading device is a device for obtaining information for identifying a merchandise, and includes a housing, an imaging unit, a main illumination unit, and an auxiliary illumination unit. The housing includes a reading window having a property of transmitting light. The imaging unit is built in the housing and captures an image through the reading window. The main illumination unit illuminates an imaging target located on the opposite side of the imaging unit with the reading window interposed therebetween by emitting light outward the housing, and is arranged at the upper edge portion of the reading window. The auxiliary illumination unit illuminates the imaging target by emitting light outward the housing through the reading window, and is arranged inner side than the main illumination unit.
Drainage channel for a submersible camera with drainage ports on two surfaces
A camera system with six faces and a front housing is configured to capture images and audio content from external the camera body. The camera system includes an interior audio assembly protected from external environments by a waterproof membrane. The camera system includes drainage ports on the bottom face and the left face of the camera system to encourage moisture to drain from the system. A first drainage channel couples the internal audio assembly to the first drainage port on left face of the camera system and a second drainage channel couples the drainage port on the left face of the camera system to the drainage port on the bottom face of the camera system. A third drainage channel exists between the front face of the camera system and the front housing, the third drainage channel coupling the first and second drainage channels.
Camera module of reduced size in two dimensions and electronic device including the same
A camera module miniaturized in both width and length includes a baseplate, a lens assembly, and a bracket. The bracket includes a support plate and a support member disposed on the support plate. The support plate includes a first surface facing away from the baseplate and a second surface facing the baseplate. The support plate defines a first opening penetrating the first surface and the second surface. The lens assembly is disposed on the first surface and completely covers the first opening. The support member is located between the support plate and the baseplate. The support member includes a first support portion and a plurality of second support portions arranged at intervals, the first support portion is disposed on the second surface and surrounds the peripheral edge of the first opening. Each second support portion extends outwards from an outer surface of the first support portion.
