Drainage channel for a submersible camera with drainage ports on two surfaces
A camera system with six faces and a front housing is configured to capture images and audio content from external the camera body. The camera system includes an interior audio assembly protected from external environments by a waterproof membrane. The camera system includes drainage ports on the bottom face and the left face of the camera system to encourage moisture to drain from the system. A first drainage channel couples the internal audio assembly to the first drainage port on left face of the camera system and a second drainage channel couples the drainage port on the left face of the camera system to the drainage port on the bottom face of the camera system. A third drainage channel exists between the front face of the camera system and the front housing, the third drainage channel coupling the first and second drainage channels.

UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHIC LIGHTING DEVICE
The present invention relates to an underwater photographic lighting device which comprises: a flashlight body fully sealed by a seal, the interior of the flashlight body is provided with waterproof through holes, the flashlight body is respectively connected to a lamp head and a flashlight via conductive connecting cables, the lamp head is sealed by a seal, and connecting parts can be respectively dismounted from the flashlight body; and a power supply component sealed by a seal and connected to the flashlight body. Every part of the underwater photographic lighting device of the present invention is sealed, so the waterproof function is better; and each part is independent, and therefore can be optionally replaced and maintained. The battery module can be replaced and upgraded according to future need, and can be independently charged, so that the life cycle of the whole device is extended. When a beam head is used for photographing, a reflection cup and a condensing lens that are added on the beam head can increase light efficiency, so that a better photographing and recording effect can be achieved. In addition, since the device can be connected to a camera or a camcorder without a grip, a clamp or other parts, the device is convenient, light in weight and practical.
WASTEWATER MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A wastewater monitoring system uses a camera in a fixed location in a wastewater pipe. The camera is coupled to a sensor that measures some characteristic of material in the wastewater pipe. The sensor is programmed with one or more alarms that, when triggered, cause the sensor to wake up the camera and command the camera to take one or more photos. Sensor data, such as current time/date, location, and the characteristics of material in the wastewater pipe, is sent by the sensor to the camera, which overlays one or more photos with visible text information corresponding to the received sensor data. The sensor can wake up the camera and command the camera to turn on the camera's Wi-Fi interface, which allows a wastewater control system in a remote location to communicate directly with the camera.
Lens driving apparatus, and camera module and optical device including same
A lens moving apparatus including: a housing having a recess; a bobbin disposed in the housing; a first coil unit disposed at the bobbin; a magnet disposed at the housing and facing the first coil unit; an upper elastic member coupled to an upper portion of the bobbin and an upper portion of the housing; a circuit board disposed under the housing; a second coil unit disposed on the circuit board and facing the magnet; and a support member electrically connecting the upper elastic member and the circuit board, wherein a portion of the support member is disposed in the recess of the housing, wherein the housing comprises a protrusion extending upwards from an upper surface thereof, and the protrusion is positioned farther from a center of the housing than the recess of the housing when viewed from a top.

CAMERA AND CAMERA MOUNT
An electronic device includes a body, electronic components contained in the body, and two finger members. The two finger members movable relative to the body between an extended state and a collapsed state. In the extended state, the two finger members extend outward from the body for receipt by a mount of an external support. In the collapsed state, the two finger members are collapsed toward the body. In the extended state, the two finger members may extend parallel with each other for receipt in parallel slots of the mount of the external support.

VIBRATION DEVICE AND VIBRATION CONTROL METHOD
A vibration device includes a light-transmissive body, and a vibrator to vibrate the light-transmissive body at a vibration acceleration of equal to or more than about 1.5×10.sup.5 m/s.sup.2 and equal to or less than about 8.0×10.sup.5 m/s.sup.2.
Camera microphone drainage system designed for beamforming
An image capture device includes an audio depression formed into the housing with a drainage microphone mounted therein. A cover protects the drainage microphone disposed beneath the cover from an environment external to the image capture device. The cover and audio depression define a drainage channel extending from a channel entrance, through a channel volume, and out a channel exit. The surface area of the opening of the channel entrance is proportioned relative to the channel volume such that the ratio of the surface area to volume is greater than ten percent. This allows the cover to shift resonance outside of a desired frequency band.
