Disclosed herein is technology related to a heater device and corresponding systems and method. In examples the heater device has a frame having a base structure and a support beam. The support beam extends upward from the base structure. The frame is translatable across a ground surface. A cantilevered elongate heater extends from the frame. The elongate heater has a proximal end and a distal end, where the proximal end is coupled to the support beam of the frame. In some examples the elongate heater has a first heater element rotatable about an elongate axis central to the elongate heater. Additionally or alternatively, a plurality of heater elements are coupled to the cantilevered beam.

In a vehicle camera system, a camera captures an image through a predetermined area of a transmissive member. In the transmissive member, a current between a pair of electrode films is supplied to a transparent conductive film and causes the transparent conductive film to generate heat, thereby heating the transmissive member. The transparent conductive film is disposed in the predetermined area of the transmissive member. With this configuration, it is possible to heat the predetermined area of the transmissive member promptly.
