DEVICE AND METHOD FOR REDUCING BACKLIGHT EFFECT ON A CAMERA OF A ROBOT
A device and a method reduce a backlight effect on a camera of a robot in consideration of a situation of the robot. The device acquires a surrounding image, communicates with a system of the robot to obtain a current state value of the robot, and calculates a parameter value of the camera based on the current state value of the robot. Thus, the device precisely corrects the parameter of the camera based on an environment where the robot is actually located, thereby reducing the backlight effect on the camera.
APPARATUS FOR FASTENING AN IMAGING DEVICE AT A PREDETERMINED ARRANGEMENT FOR IMAGE CAPTURE AND DETECTING REGIONS OF INTEREST IN AN IMAGE USING IMAGE PROCESSING
An apparatus includes a base; a mount attached to the base, the mount including a backplate, a bottom platform formed perpendicular to the backplate along a bottom of the backplate, the bottom platform including a retention wall formed as part of the bottom platform distant from the portion of the bottom platform attached to the backplate, the retention wall being perpendicular to the bottom platform, and a first side arm formed as part of the backplate along a side of the backplate and extending outwards from the backplate, and a notch holder formed as part of the base, the notch holder configured to secure a drug test device to the base.
A METHOD FOR ADAPTING TO A DRIVER POSITION AN IMAGE DISPLAYED ON A MONITOR IN A VEHICLE CAB
The invention relates to a method for adapting to a driver position an image displayed on a monitor in a cab of the vehicle. The invention also relates to a system for adapting to a driver position an image displayed on a monitor in a cab of the vehicle. The invention further relates to a vehicle comprising such a system.
VEHICULAR CAMERA DEVICE
In a vehicle camera device, a camera is housed inside a bracket of a base, and a stud bolt of the base is connected to a side door. Heat generated by the camera is transferred to the side door via the bracket, the base, and the stud bolt. Therefore, the heat generated by the camera can be efficiently released from the camera.
OPTICAL SPRAY PATTERN IMAGING APPARATUS INCLUDING PERMANENTLY INTEGRATED LIGHT PLANE AND IMAGE CAPTURE COMPONENTS
A pre-calibrated spray plane image acquisition device is described that includes, in a single fixed-form structure, both an image capture component configured to acquire an optical image of a field of view and a light plane generator configured to generate a planar light plane emitted from the pre-calibrated spray plane image acquisition device. A carrier frame structure includes rigid components for permanently maintaining the image capture component and the light plane generator in respective positions defining a permanent spatial relationship between the field of view of the image capture component and the light plane generated by the light plane generator.
DISPLAY CAMERA ASSEMBLY
A system can include a display assembly that includes a display, a display side, a back side and a frame, where the back side includes a serial bus socket; and a camera assembly that includes a camera head unit coupled to an end of an arm, where an opposing end of the arm includes a serial bus connector receivable by the serial bus socket of the back side of the display assembly.

IMAGE CAPTURING MODULE, ENDOSCOPE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING IMAGE CAPTURING MODULE
An image capturing module includes a flexible circuit board and an image sensor. The flexible circuit board includes a plurality of first pads and a plurality of second pads. The first pads are disposed on a first surface of the flexible circuit board and the second pads are disposed on a second surface of the flexible circuit board, wherein the first surface is opposite to the second surface. The image sensor is disposed on the first surface. A distance between the image sensor and the first pads is identical to a distance between the image sensor and the second pads. The flexible circuit board is folded to align and weld the first pads with the second pads, such that a light receiving surface of the image sensor is perpendicular to surfaces of the first and second pads.
System for pulling wire through a conduit
The system for pulling wire through a conduit includes a cable puller and a remote controller. The cable puller may pull a wire through a conduit. The wire may be removably coupled to a cable coupler located on the rear of the cable puller. The cable puller may be inserted into a first end of the conduit and may progress to a second end of the conduit under the influence of a plurality of tractors. A camera that is mounted on a faceplate at the front of a housing of the cable puller may transmit one or more images to the remote controller. One or more visible light sources and one or more infrared light sources may provide illumination for the camera. Movements of the cable puller may be controlled remotely using the remote controller.
