ELECTRIC SHAVER WITH IMAGING CAPABILITY
20230007152 · 2023-01-05 ·

System and method for improving the shaving experience by providing improved visibility of the skin shaving area. A digital camera is integrated with the electric shaver for close image capturing of shaving area, and displaying it on a display unit. The display unit can be integral part of the electric shaver casing, or housed in a separated device which receives the image via a communication channel. The communication channel can be wireless (using radio, audio or light) or wired, such as dedicated cabling or using powerline communication. A light source is used to better illuminate the shaving area. Video compression and digital image processing techniques are used for providing for improved shaving results. The wired communication medium can simultaneously be used also for carrying power from the electric shaver assembly to the display unit, or from the display unit to the electric shaver.

UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE WITH VIRTUAL UN-ZOOMED IMAGING

In some examples, a computing device receives, from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), a first image from a first camera on the UAV and a plurality of second images from a plurality of second cameras on the UAV. The plurality of second cameras may be positioned on the UAV for providing a plurality of different fields of view in a plurality of different directions around the UAV. Further, the first camera has a longer focal length than the second cameras. The computing device presents, on a display, a composite image including at least a portion of the first image within a merged image generated from the plurality of second images. The presented composite image enables a user to at least one of: zoom out from the at least one first image to the merged image, or zoom in from the merged image to the at least one first image.

IMAGING SYSTEM AND ROBOT SYSTEM

An imaging system includes: an unmanned flight vehicle; an imager that is mounted on the unmanned flight vehicle and takes an image of a robot which performs work with respect to a target object; a display structure which is located away from the unmanned flight vehicle and displays the image taken by the imager to a user who manipulates the robot; and circuitry which controls operations of the imager and the unmanned flight vehicle. The circuitry acquires operation related information that is information related to an operation of the robot. The circuitry moves the unmanned flight vehicle such that a position and direction of the imager are changed so as to correspond to the operation related information.
