A drive mechanism, a camera device and a portable electric device are provided. The drive mechanism includes an auto-focusing mechanism and a stabilization mechanism. The auto-focusing mechanism receive and drive the lens along an optical axis of the lens. The auto-focusing mechanism includes a stator and a mover. The mover includes a holder for installing the lens. A groove is formed at a surface of the holder facing the stator. An inner side of the groove is coated with a vibration damping gel. The stator is provided with a claw member extending into the groove to cooperate with the vibration damping gel. The stator is further provided with a through-hole opposite to the groove to expose the groove. After assembling is completed, an amount of the vibration damping gel can be adjusted through the groove, thereby suppressing vibration of the auto-focusing mechanism and improving the vibration damping effect.

A video may be captured by an image capture device in motion. A stabilization trajectory for the video may reflect stabilization rotational positions to compensate for at least some of the motion of the image capture device. The stabilization trajectory may have a stabilization trajectory length. The stabilization of the visual content may be assessed based on the stabilization trajectory length.

An embodiment comprises: a cover member; a moving unit which is arranged on the inside of the cover member, and which includes a first substrate and an image sensor arranged in the first substrate; a fixing unit including a second substrate spaced from the first substrate; a support substrate for supporting the moving unit so that the moving unit moves in the direction vertical to an optical axis direction with respect to the fixing unit, and electrically connecting the first substrate and the second substrate; and a control unit arranged in the second substrate and on the outside of the cover member.

A video processing apparatus includes a light irradiation unit, a video acquisition unit, a motion detection unit, and an imaging control unit. The light irradiation unit irradiates a face of an object of shooting with light. The video acquisition unit acquires a video capturing the face of the object of shooting. The motion detection unit detects a speed of motion of at least a portion of the face in the video acquired by the video acquisition unit. The imaging control unit changes an open period of a shutter in the video acquisition unit and a light emission intensity of the light irradiation unit based on the speed detected by the motion detection unit.

There is provided an image processing device including: a plurality of light sources each emitting a plurality of lights; a camera outputting a first subject image obtained by photographing a subject; and a control unit controlling each of the plurality of light sources according to an optical coded pattern set based on a complex modulation transfer function during a shutter exposure time of the camera, and outputting a second subject image in which motion blur is removed from the first subject image according to point spread functions for each color channel modulated by the optical coded pattern set.

An imaging apparatus comprises two actuators, such as an autofocus actuator and optical image stabilizer. The actuators are nested, wherein the outer actuator is suspended from the device body and the inner actuator is suspended from the outer actuator. A suspension element may be a flexure bearing, allowing a flat actuator design.

The disclosure relates to a method for the noise optimization of a camera, in particular a handheld thermal imaging camera. Images are captured by means of the camera in at least one method step; at least one movement characteristic variable is detected by means of at least one sensor unit of the camera in at least one method step; and image data of captured images is averaged by means of a computing unit of the camera in at least one method step. At least a number of images to be averaged are determined by means of the computing unit of the camera at least on the basis of an intensity of the detected movement characteristic variable, in particular a change rate, in at least one method step.

A deroll control system includes an outer housing, a detector configured to capture an image, an annular torsional flexure, at least one drive and a controller configured to control the at least one drive. The annular torsional flexure has a rotatable inner mount surface to which the detector is mounted, a fixed outer mount surface fixed to the outer housing and spaced radially apart from the rotatable inner mount surface, and a flexure region having a plurality of flexures spaced radially between the inner mount surface and the outer mount surface. The at least one drive is coupled to the inner mount surface of the torsional flexure and is configured to cause a counter-rotation of the inner mount surface and the detector about a central rotational axis perpendicular to an image plane to correct a rotation of the image as the detector is capturing the image.

A set of images may be captured by a camera as the camera moves along a path through space around an object. Then, a smoothed function (e.g., a polynomial) may be fitted to the translational and/or rotational position in space. For example, positions in a Cartesian coordinates pace may be determined for the images. The positions may then be transformed to a polar coordinate space, in which a trajectory along the points may be determined, and the trajectory transformed back into the Cartesian space. Similarly, the rotational position of the images may be smoothed, for instance by fitting a loss function. Finally, one or more images may be transformed to more closely align a viewpoint of the image with the fitted translational and/or rotational positions.

An image processing method, an electronic device and a storage medium. The method includes: under a preset condition, when detecting that an image currently captured by a camera module contains a human face, determining a reference photosensitivity corresponding to each frame of images to be captured according to a current jitter degree of the camera module; determining an exposure duration corresponding to each frame of images to be captured according to luminance of a current shooting scene, the reference photosensitivity corresponding to each frame of the images to be captured, and a preset mode of exposure compensation; capturing a plurality of frames of images in sequence according to the reference photosensitivity and the exposure duration corresponding to each frame of the images to be captured; and performing synthesis processing on the captured plurality of frames of images to generate a target image.
