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.

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for obtaining low-noise, high-speed captures of a photographic scene. In use, a first cell of a first pixel is in communication with a first node for storing a first sample. Further, a second cell of a second pixel is in communication with a second node for storing a second sample. Still further, the first cell and the second cell are communicatively coupled.

According to some embodiments, a processor reads a force from a touch control. Hysteretic behavior is provided through at least three different actuation states and at least four different force threshold values, allowing user-friendly control of disparate actions through one touch interface with applications in volume control, photography, and user authentication. Other possibilities are shown and discussed.

A method includes providing a mission regarding image capturing to a user terminal having an image capture function, evaluating an image transmitted from the user terminal in response to the mission, and additionally providing a new mission regarding image capturing to the user terminal in a case where a level of achievement of the mission is determined to satisfy a criterion based on the evaluation.

An arrangement for determining an amount of light reaching an image sensor of a video camera, the video camera comprising an imaging lens system guiding a beam path towards an image sensor, wherein the arrangement comprises a transparent probing element through which the beam path passes on its way to the image sensor, and a light sensor arranged in an end of the transparent probing element. The light sensor is arranged to collect light being scattered or reflected in the transparent probing element.

Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can control a camera according to one or more conditions specified by a user. A condition can be satisfied when, for example, the automated assistant detects a particular environment feature is apparent. In this way, the user can rely on the automated assistant to identify and capture certain moments without necessarily requiring the user to constantly monitor a viewing window of the camera. In some implementations, a condition for the automated assistant to capture media data can be based on application data and/or other contextual data that is associated with the automated assistant. For instance, a relationship between content in a camera viewing window and other content of an application interface can be a condition upon which the automated assistant captures certain media data using a camera.

A communication apparatus includes a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly communicate with an external apparatus, a speaker, a memory, and a control unit, wherein in a case where an operation is executed to change the communication apparatus to a predetermined mode in which a sound is not output from the speaker, the control unit performs control such that the communication apparatus is changed to the predetermined mode, wherein in a case where identification information about the external apparatus is stored in the memory, the control unit enables a wireless communication function in response to the execution of the operation to change the communication apparatus to the predetermined mode, and wherein in a case where the identification information about the external apparatus is not stored in the memory, even if the operation to change the communication apparatus to the predetermined mode is executed, the wireless communication function is not enabled.

A wireless speaker and camera assembly includes a remote control for storing data comprising a remote control program. A housing is included and a speaker is integrated into the housing to emit audible sound outwardly therefrom. A camera is integrated into the housing to capture images of the environment in which the housing is positioned. A transceiver is integrated into the housing and the transceiver is in communication with the speaker and the camera. Additionally, the transceiver is in remote communication with the remote control to send and receive audio data and image data with respect to the remote control thereby facilitating the speaker to stream audio received from the remote control.

A method for using cameras in an augmented reality headset is provided. The method includes receiving a signal from a sensor mounted on a headset worn by a user, the signal being indicative of a user intention for capturing an image. The method also includes identifying the user intention for capturing the image, based on a model to classify the signal from the sensor according to the user intention, selecting a first image capturing device in the headset based on a specification of the first image capturing device and the user intention for capturing the image, and capturing the image with the first image capturing device. An augmented reality headset, a memory storing instructions, and a processor to execute the instructions to cause the augmented reality headset as above are also provided.

A drawn agricultural implement includes a main frame and a plurality of ground engaging units supporting the main frame from a ground surface. A working unit is supported from the main frame and configured to engage crops as the implement moves in a forward direction across the ground surface. A draft tongue extends from the main frame for attachment to a tractor. A camera having a field of view is mounted on at least one of the draft tongue, the main frame and the working unit. The camera is movable relative to the at least one of the draft tongue, the main frame and the working unit to reposition the field of view.
