Abstract:
A control section of an imaging apparatus sets a specific scene in advance, sequentially stores images continuously captured by an imaging section in a storage section, specifies images corresponding to the set specific scene from among the plurality of images stored in the storage section when a predetermined motion of the user is detected during the storing operation, and displays the specified images on a display section while continuing the storing operation.
Abstract:
A camera is provided with an imaging element, and detects a timing of blinking of light which blinks periodically at a reference timing, based on a timing of variation in luminance of an image obtained by the imaging element, wherein the image is taken by the imaging element under a condition that the light blinks periodically at the reference timing. Further, the timing of exposure of the imaging element is adjusted based on the detected timing of the blinking light, thereby synchronizing shooting operations of plural cameras with each other.
Abstract:
In automatic travel control of a flying device towards a target, when a current distance from the target is large in comparison to a prescribed distance threshold, a controller of the flying device performs velocity feedback PID control to control the flight propulsion unit of the flying device. When the current distance becomes small in comparison to the prescribed distance threshold, the controller performs a hybrid of the velocity feedback PID control and position feedback PID control to control the flight propulsion unit such that as the flying device approaches the target, the position feedback PID control becomes more dominant than the velocity PID control. The processor calculates a weighted average of the respective manipulated variables with dynamically adjusted weights to achieve the hybrid control.
Abstract:
An imaging apparatus of the present invention, which is capable of wireless communication, images a peripheral imaging apparatus from among a plurality of peripheral imaging apparatuses around the imaging apparatus; detects predetermined information by which identification information identifying the peripheral imaging apparatus is identifiable from within the imaging frames; identifies the identification information by analyzing the detected predetermined information; selects a peripheral imaging apparatus to be a target for predetermined processing from among the plurality of peripheral imaging apparatus by using the identified identification information; and performs the predetermined processing with the selected peripheral imaging apparatus via the wireless communication.
Abstract:
An information gathering apparatus includes an information acquisition sensor unit to acquire information and a propelling system to fly in air. The information gathering apparatus includes a supporting unit and a controller. The supporting unit supports the propelling system in the first and second configurations. The controller moves the supporting unit such that the supporting unit supports the propelling system in the second configuration after the information gathering apparatus is thrown up in a state where the supporting unit supports the propelling system in the first configuration.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a number-of-touches detecting unit, a first touch-area detecting unit and a first switching control unit. The number-of-touches detecting unit detects the number of touch operations when a user performs a plurality of touch operations on a touch panel. The first touch-area detecting unit detects areas, including touch positions of the plurality of touch operations, from a plurality of areas into which the touch panel is partitioned. The first switching control unit controls switching display, based on the number of detected touch operations and the detected areas.
Abstract:
An image capture apparatus including a timing generator that generates a frame synchronization signal with a constant cycle receives a reference signal generated at a predetermined interval based on a predetermined reference cycle, compares generation timing of the reference signal received with generation timing of the frame synchronization signal generated by the timing generator, and adjusts a generation cycle of the frame synchronization signal generated by the timing generator based on a result of the comparison.
Abstract:
A flight device includes at least one propelling unit and a controller unit for flying in the air, and the flight device is thrown by a user. The controller unit drives the propelling unit after throwing is performed by the user, such that the flight device flies based on a state of the flight device at a moment when the throwing is performed.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to make it possible to easily display user's desired images.An imaging apparatus includes a frame rate acquiring unit, a measuring unit and a reproduction control unit. The frame rate acquiring unit acquires the imaging frame rate of a video to be reproduced. The measuring unit measures the operation speed of a user's touch operation on a touch panel while the touch operation is performed. The reproduction control unit controls reproduction of the video which is displayed on the display panel, based on the acquired imaging frame rate and the subsequently measured operation speed.
Abstract:
A master camera sets temporary conditions at the time of executing photographing by a plurality of cameras, determines whether photographing by the plurality of cameras can be executed under the temporary conditions, sets actual conditions at the time of executing photographing by the plurality of cameras in accordance with this determination result, and executes control such that photographing by the plurality of cameras is executed under the actual conditions.
