CONVERSION LENS ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE, AND INSPECTION DEVICE
A conversion lens attachment structure includes a first magnetic body provided on a conversion lens device that includes a conversion lens, and a second magnetic body provided on a device main body that includes a master lens. The conversion lens device is attached to the device main body due to a first surface of the first magnetic body and a second surface of the second magnetic body being pulled toward each other, and the second magnetic body is provided such that a normal line of the second surface is not parallel to an optical axis of the master lens.
Image capturing apparatus, accessory, camera system including image capturing apparatus and accessory
An image capturing apparatus includes a first mount portion and a first cylindrical member that has a color different from a color of the first mount portion and is disposed in a circumferential direction of the first mount portion, an accessory includes an exterior portion, a second mount portion, and a second cylindrical member having a color different from a color of the second mount portion and similar to a color of the first cylindrical member and disposed in a circumferential direction of the second mount portion, and in a state where the accessory is attached to the image capturing apparatus, reference surfaces of the first mount portion and the second mount portion are in contact with each other, and the first cylindrical member and the second cylindrical member are externally exposed regardless of whether the accessory is attached to or detached from the image capturing apparatus.
LENS MOUNT ASSEMBLY
A lens mount assembly is configured to support a lens assembly having a lens ring and at least one lens secured to the lens ring. The lens mount assembly includes a ring mount having an annular body with at least two retaining arms that project from the annular body, a flexure configured to be secured to the ring mount, and at least two bellows. Each bellows is configured to be secured to a respective retaining arm of the at least two retaining arms of the ring mount. The at least two bellows further are configured to engage the flexure.
Modular camera with interchangeable image head and sub-system bases
An image head including a housing, side rails, a port, and internal componentry. The housing includes a first side and a second side located opposite the second side. The side rails are located on or within the first side, the second side, or both and the side rails are configured to provide sliding directional control of the image head when connecting to a base. The port is configured to electrically connect the image head to the base. The internal componentry includes a printed circuit board; an integrated lens and sensor assembly (ISLA) configured to generate an image; and memory located on the printed circuit board configured to store the image.
IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS AND ACCESSORIES
An image capturing apparatus on which an accessory including a first mount is mountable includes a second mount. The second mount is configured to allow bayonet coupling to the first mount of the accessory. The second mount includes a plurality of terminals disposed in a circumferential direction, and a terminal holder configured to hold the plurality of terminals. Each of the plurality of terminals is electrically connectable to a terminal of the accessory. The terminal holder has a height level difference in a center-axis direction of the second mount. The plurality of terminals include a first terminal configured to be used to detect mounting of the accessory on the image capturing apparatus. The first terminal is disposed further in a mount direction of the accessory than the other terminals among the plurality of terminals on a first stage of the terminal holder.
WIRELESS CHARGER FOR CAMERA
Wireless chargers for cameras include a body, a power circuit in the body, a charging coil connected to the body, the charging coil electrically connected to the power circuit, and the charging coil operable to generate a current in response to positioning adjacent to the wireless charger. The body may include a lens mount configured to receive interchangeable lenses, and the charging coil may be on a body surface opposite the lens mount. The body may include a display, and the charging coil may underly the display. The charging coil may be registered with a periphery of the display. The body may have a forward side including a lens, and a rear side including a display, and the charging coil may be proximate the rear side.
SURGICAL MICROSCOPE SYSTEM AND MICROSCOPE CAMERA ADAPTER
The present disclosure relates to a surgical microscope system and a microscope camera adapter that enable various types of adjustment in a camera adapter connecting the cameras that capture a three-dimensional image, with right and left cameras simultaneously. Of respective right and left lens groups that constitute respective focus lenses, right and left lenses between lenses closest to a side of an objective lens and lenses closest to sides of eye lenses are simultaneously moved by the same distance according to a setting value, by which focus is adjusted. The present invention can be applied to a surgical microscope system.
Lens unit, imaging device, control methods thereof, and storage medium
A lens unit comprises a shake detector; a shake correction mechanism for correcting image blur; a setting unit for setting a ratio of shake to be corrected by the shake correction mechanism; a control unit for, based on the shake detected by the shake detector and the ratio of shake, calculating a first shake correction amount and control an image shake correction operation by the shake correction mechanism; and a target-value correction unit for correcting the first shake correction amount, based on a difference between a result of detecting shake by the shake detector, and a result of detecting shake by a shake detector provided in the imaging device, wherein the control unit controls the shake correction mechanism based on an image stabilization amount corrected in accordance with the target-value correction unit.
WIDE ANGLE ADAPTER LENS FOR ENHANCED VIDEO STABILIZATION
An image capture system for enhanced electronic image stabilization (EIS) includes an image capture device and an adapter lens. The image capture device includes an image sensor, a lens housing, a processor, and a lens assembly that includes a first group of optical elements disposed within the lens housing. The first group of optical elements are used project an image onto the image sensor. The processor performs EIS. The adapter lens is used to enhance EIS of the image capture device. The adapter lens has an adapter lens housing that interfaces with the lens housing. The adapter lens has a second group of optical elements disposed within the adapter lens housing. The second group of optical elements are used to project the image as an image circle on the image sensor.
ATTACHMENT SYSTEM FOR COUPLING A MOBILE COMPUTING DEVICE TO OPTICS
Provided is an attachment system for coupling a mobile computing device to an optic device. The optic device may be, but is not limited to a scope, binoculars or the like. The attachment system operates with attachment devices and mounting device with apertures that provide a means to couple a mobile computing device to the optic device in such a way that the attachment system provides a line-of-sight between a camera of the mobile computing device with the lens of the optic device. This allows the camera of the mobile computing device to capture images and video using the high power zoom functionality of the optic device and the convenience of the mobile computing device.
