The present disclosure relates to an imaging system, a control method, and a program that make it possible to implement setting for an external flash by an operation on a camera side. Setting coordination processing is executed in which: setting information of an external flash (13) is transmitted and received between a first communication unit (67A) and a second communication unit (47); a second display unit is caused to display a setting screen to be used for setting a setting item of the external flash; and the setting information changed by an operation on the second operation unit is caused to be transmitted from the imaging device (12) to the external flash (13) via the first communication unit (67A) and the second communication unit (47), and a setting for the external flash (13) is caused to be applied. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an imaging system (11) including an external flash (13) and an imaging device (12).

A method, comprising: providing a light source, a high contrast providing object, and an image acquisition device; emitting a light beam from the light source through the high contrast providing object, a transparent object and a surface of the transparent object toward the image acquisition device; exposing the surface of the transparent object to icing conditions such that a layer of ice is formed by ice accretion on the surface, wherein the light beam traverses the layer of ice after having traversed the transparent object; acquiring a series of images over time of the high contrast providing object using the image acquisition device; determining blur occurring in the series of images over the time; and quantifying the loss of visibility over the time through the transparent object on the basis of the determined blur.

Provided are an imaging apparatus, an imaging method, and a program that change a display form of a display unit in accordance with whether or not a display content of the display unit is visually recognizable. An imaging apparatus (10) includes a first display unit (13), and a processor (40), in which the processor (40) performs a determination process for determining whether or not a display content of the first display unit (13) is visually recognizable by a user, and a display control for displaying a first display including at least one of a captured image or a character in a case where it is determined through the determination process that the display content is visually recognizable, and for causing the first display unit (13) to display a second display that is a surface display in a case where it is not determined through the determination process that the display content is visually recognizable.

The disclosure relates to a front cover of a vehicle-mounted camera, a vehicle-mounted camera device, and a vehicle. The front cover of a vehicle-mounted camera includes: a lens assembly, having a lens mount and a lens set including at least one lens; and a cover body, having an end surface in abutting joint with the lens mount and a through mounting hole, wherein the lens set is inserted in the mounting hole with a clearance reserved therebetween, such that the lens mount fixedly abuts against the end surface by means of a connecting medium, and an inner wall of the mounting hole and/or an outer wall of the lens set is provided with an accommodating portion, thus the connecting medium fills the accommodating portion and is wedged between the lens set and the mounting hole.

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.

Provided is a cured product of a resin composition including a (meth)acrylate compound and a compound having at least one thiol group, wherein the content of the compound having at least one thiol group in the cured product is 30 mass % or less, and wherein the cured product has a secondary dispersion characteristic of 0.65 or more.

A camera module includes an imaging lens assembly module and an image sensor. The image sensor is disposed on an image surface of the imaging lens assembly module and includes a photoelectric converting layer, a micro lens arrays layer, a light filtering layer and an anti-reflecting layer. The photoelectric converting layer is for converting a light signal to an electric signal. The micro lens arrays layer is for converging an energy of the imaging light into the photoelectric converting layer. The light filtering layer is for absorbing a light at a certain wavelength region of the imaging light. The anti-reflecting layer is disposed on a surface of at least one of the light filtering layer and the micro lens arrays layer and includes an irregular nano-crystallite structure layer and an optical connecting layer. The optical connecting layer is connected to the irregular nano-crystallite structure layer.

The present disclosure relates to a camera assembly arrangement for a vehicle rear view cover. The camera assembly arrangement may include a rear view cover, wherein the rear view cover comprises at least one alignment element, and a camera assembly, wherein the camera assembly comprises a camera module with a lens and at least one of a cover and a camera cradle for mounting the camera module. The camera assembly may include at least four alignment elements to align the camera assembly to the rear view cover, with the alignment elements comprising at least two stiff ribs and at least two spring elements such that the camera assembly is pressed by the spring elements against the stiff ribs and onto the rear view cover. The camera cradle may be is provided with at least one outrigger slider, where the at least one alignment element cooperates with the at least one outrigger slider, and at least one clip fastener is retained on at least one shoulder, with the at least one clip fastener being configured on one of the rear view cover and the camera assembly, and the at least one shoulder being configured on one of the camera assembly and the rear view cover.

The technical problem of enhancing the quality of an image captured by a front facing camera in low light conditions is addressed by displaying the viewfinder of a front facing camera with an illuminating border, termed a viewfinder ring flash. A viewfinder ring flash acts as a ring flash in low light conditions. A viewfinder ring flash may be automatically generated and presented in the camera view user interface (UI) when the digital sensor of a front facing camera detects a low light indication based on intensity of incident light detected by the digital image sensor of the camera.

An electronic device includes a camera module, wherein the camera module includes a lens assembly including lenses aligned along an optical axis, an actuator, a first magnet disposed on a first surface of the lens assembly, a first coil configured to move the lens assembly along the optical axis, a metal shield structure disposed on an outer surface of the actuator to face the first coil, and a fixing structure disposed on a third surface perpendicular to the first surface of the lens assembly, wherein at least a portion of the fixing structure has a magnetic property. When one end of the fixing structure is inserted into an opening of a housing, the fixing structure is fixed in an optical axis direction by the opening and is fixed in the first direction by a magnetic force acting on the metal shield structure.
