20230051215 · 2023-02-16 · ·

A method and device are provided for positioning a mounted camera. The device includes a holding element that secures the mounted camera to the device, a wireless linkage at which remote attitude commands representing attitude changes of a remote driver are received, a local controller that interprets the remote attitude commands and generates local attitude commands that move the camera to mimic an orientation of the remote driver, and an attitude sensing element that senses a local attitude of the device. The attitude sensing element includes a gyro, an accelerometer, or a magnetometer, and jitter present in the remote attitude commands is removed and not passed on to the local attitude commands.

GEAR FINE-TUNING PAN-TILT
20230048054 · 2023-02-16 ·

The present invention relates to the technical field of photography and videography, in particular to a gear fine-tuning pan-tilt. The gear fine-tuning pan-tilt includes a rotating base, a roll worm support seat, a roll adjusting assembly, a pitch adjusting assembly, and a bearing seat arranged in sequence from bottom to top; the pitch adjusting assembly of the complete gear structure is located on the above, providing large-angle pitch ability, and the roll adjusting assembly located below adopts an arc-shaped rack structure, which reduces the interference to the pitching movement of the upper assembly and makes the height of the pan-tilt smaller. The arc opening of the arc-shaped rack faces upwards, so that the rotation axis is closer to the center axis of the lens, the camera displacement is small during the leveling process, and the unintended picture movement is small. The upper and lower combination of the two structures strengthens the swing ability of the top of the pan-tilt in the limited size, and is therefore more convenient to use: firstly aiming at the subject through the rotating base, and then leveling the left and right, and then determining the pitch angle. The camera always maintains the left and right level during pitching process. There is no need to level the left and right again after the pitch angle is changed, and roll deviation will not occur when the camera pitches and the lens is moved.

SYSTEM FOR POSITIONING A VIEWING SCREEN
20230047853 · 2023-02-16 ·

The invention provides a system for positioning a viewing screen. The system comprises a base body and at least one screen body. The screen body comprises a suspension hook and, on the one hand, is configured to be rigidly connected, at least in one position of the screen body, to the base body and, on the other hand, is configured to fasten a viewing screen thereto. The system further comprises a securing body for releasably securing the rigid connection between the base body and the screen body. The base body comprises a suspension edge. The suspension hook and the suspension edge are configured to suspend the screen body from the suspension edge of the base body via the suspension hook.

CABLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
20230052654 · 2023-02-16 ·

A system can include a display assembly that includes a display, a display side, a back side, a frame and a serial bus socket; and a cable clip, removably attachable to the back side of the display assembly, that receives a portion of a cable that includes a serial bus connector receivable by the serial bus socket.

Workpiece turntable

A workpiece turntable comprises a turntable module and an attachable floor-engaging support. The floor-engaging support is preferably height adjustable. The turntable module comprises a rotatable base mounted on a stationary base; a wire frame mounted over the rotatable base; a first set of support elements extending from the wire frame having a first height relative to the rotatable base; and a second set of support elements extending from the wire frame having a second height relative to the rotatable base. Each one of the support elements includes a respective support finger that can be made of an elastomer such rubber, silicone, or urethane.

Physical stand for multiple device orientations and peripheral card reader

There are provided systems and methods for a physical stand for multiple device orientations and peripheral card reader. A device stand may include a dock that allows for placement and securing of a computing device within the device case, such as through a locking or connecting mechanism. The device dock further includes a peripheral component, such as a physical card reader, that allows for reading and entry of card data into the computing device for use with an electronic transaction processing application on the computing device. This allows the computing device to process transactions electronic with an online service provider. Further, the device stand includes a hinge or joint that allows for rotating and inverting of the computing device over a curved extension from a base of the device stand, which allows the computing device to be viewed in multiple directions and orientations.

Visual display stand

A visual display stand is shown and described. The display stand comprises a thin aluminum member that slopes downward and away from a display to which it is attached to a horizontal base section that rests on a support surface. The horizontal base is spaced apart from the screen in a direction away from the rear of the display. A rear support member is also provided but is concealed from view when looking at the screen side of the display. As a result, when the stand is attached to display and viewed from the front, it gives a gravity defying appearance because it appears that the weight of the monitor should cause the stand to tip over. Alternatively, the second member may be removed, and the display may rest against a wall.

CAMERA SYSTEM USING STABILIZING GIMBAL

Disclosed is an electronic gimbal with camera and mounting configuration. The gimbal can include an inertial measurement unit which can sense the orientation of the camera and three electronic motors which can manipulate the orientation of the camera. The gimbal can be removably coupled to a variety of mount platforms, such as an aerial vehicle, a handheld grip, or a rotating platform. Moreover, a camera can be removably coupled to the gimbal and can be held in a removable camera frame. Also disclosed is a system for allowing the platform, to which the gimbal is mounted, to control settings of the camera or to trigger actions on the camera, such as taking a picture, or initiating the recording of a video. The gimbal can also provide a connection between the camera and the mount platform, such that the mount platform receives images and video content from the camera.
