Image capturing method and display method for recognizing a relationship among a plurality of images displayed on a display screen
An image capturing apparatus includes a capture part acquiring image data, and a display displaying an image on a display based on the image data. First information acquired includes at least either an azimuth angle or an elevation angle as a direction of the image and at least either an angle of view of the image or angle-of-view related information calculating the angle of view. When a second direction of a second image is included within a range of a first angle of view in a first direction of a first image, the second image is associated with the first image, and the first image is displayed within the display, and display is performed in a state in which the second image to be associated with the first image is overlapped on the first image within the display as the second image or second information indicating the second image.
Drain Mechanism for Camera Controller
A camera controller is configured to control a camera through voice commands. The camera controller includes drain mechanisms that allow the camera controller to be used in environments in which the camera controller is exposed to fluids. The camera controller device comprises a housing body with an outer surface including a first opening and a second opening. A first channel extends from the first opening into the housing body and to a cavity in which a microphone is located, enabling audio signals entering the first opening to be captured by the microphone. A membrane is located between the first channel and the microphone to create a waterproof seal over the microphone. A second channel extends from the first channel to the second opening to create a drain such that fluid entering from the first opening can flow from the first channel through the second channel and out the second opening.
WASTEWATER MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A wastewater monitoring system uses a camera in a fixed location in a wastewater pipe. The camera is coupled to a sensor that measures some characteristic of material in the wastewater pipe. The sensor is programmed with one or more alarms that, when triggered, cause the sensor to wake up the camera and command the camera to take one or more photos. Sensor data, such as current time/date, location, and the characteristics of material in the wastewater pipe, is sent by the sensor to the camera, which overlays one or more photos with visible text information corresponding to the received sensor data. The sensor can wake up the camera and command the camera to turn on the camera's Wi-Fi interface, which allows a wastewater control system in a remote location to communicate directly with the camera.
Heat Sink of a Camera
This application is directed to a camera that includes a housing, a lens assembly and a plurality of electronic components. The lens assembly is arranged at a front portion of the housing and configured for focusing light received from outside of the camera. The plurality of electronic components is arranged at the front portion of the housing, and further includes an image sensor coupled to receive light through the lens assembly, a memory for storing information, a processor for processing information from the image sensor, and a wireless communication module for wirelessly communicating with an electronic device. The camera further includes a heat dissipation element arranged at a rear portion of the housing and located between the plurality of electronic components and a rear surface of the housing. The heat dissipation element is configured to transfer heat from the plurality of electronic components to the rear portion of the housing.
Information processing apparatus capable of applying image processing based on evaluation results, image processing apparatus, and method of controlling the same
According to an aspect of the disclosure, an information processing apparatus comprising a communication circuit and a control circuit is provided. The control circuit transmits reduced image data of captured image data, to a first external apparatus through the communication circuit; receives, from the first external apparatus, a result of evaluation processing applied to the reduced image data; on the basis of the result of the evaluation processing, determines whether to apply image processing to the captured image data corresponding to the reduced image data, by a second external apparatus; transmits the captured image data that is determined to be applied the image processing, to the second external apparatus through the communication circuit; and receives, from the second external apparatus, a result of the image processing applied to the captured image data.
DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD AND DEVICE
A method includes acquiring an image, acquiring display orders of a plurality of object data that respectively correspond to a plurality of reference objects based on correspondence information in which a reference object is associated with an object data that corresponds to the reference object and a display order of the object data, determining, among the plurality of object data, object data that corresponds to a display subject based on the display orders of the plurality of object data, executing a process that generates display information for displaying the object data that is the display subject, controlling a display to display the object data that is the display subject based on an execution result of the process, and performing the executing of the process for another object data, and the controlling of the display based on the another object data, the another object data being a next display subject.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Sensor Activation and Correlation System
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) logs first UAV information at a first frequency. The UAV triggers a camera associated with the UAV to capture an image. In response to triggering the camera to capture the image, the UAV logs second UAV information at a second frequency that is higher than the first frequency. A device that is separate from the UAV identifies a location of the UAV corresponding to the image based on a capture timestamp of the image received from the camera, the first UAV information, and the second UAV information. The device generates a geo-rectified imagery based on the image and the location of the UAV.
