Abstract:
An imaging apparatus in an embodiment includes lens optical systems each including a lens whose surface closest to the target object is shaped to be convex toward the target object, imaging regions which respectively face the lens optical systems and output a photoelectrically converted signal corresponding to an amount of light transmitting the lens optical systems and received by the imaging regions, and a light-transmissive cover which covers an exposed portion of the lens of each of the lens optical systems and a portion between the lens of one of the lens optical systems and the lens of another one of the lens optical systems adjacent to the one of the lens optical systems, the cover having a curved portion which is convex toward the target object. The optical axes of the lens optical systems are parallel to each other.
Abstract:
A method for estimating an emotional state is executed by a computer and includes acquiring an amount of change of a cerebral blood flow of a user from a reference time, acquiring an amount of change of a heart rate of the user from a reference time, and outputting a signal indicating that the user is in an excited state in a case where the amount of change of the cerebral blood flow is smaller than a first threshold value and the amount of change of the heart rate is larger than a second threshold value.
Abstract:
An optical measuring device includes a light source, a photodetector, a control circuit, and a signal processing circuit. The control circuit causes the light source to emit first and second light pulses with which a target of measurement is irradiated, causes the photodetector to detect a first portion of a first reflected light pulse in a first period having a first time length and output a first signal representing an amount of light of the first portion, and causes the photodetector to detect a second portion of a second reflected light pulse in a second period having a second time length and output a second signal representing an amount of light of the second portion. The signal processing circuit generates, based on a fluctuation in the first signal and a fluctuation in the second signal, information indicating a fluctuation in internal state of the target of measurement.
Abstract:
An imaging apparatus includes an imaging device, a first imaging optical system and a second imaging optical system that form respective input images from mutually different viewpoints onto the imaging device, and a first modulation mask and a second modulation mask that modulate the input images formed by the first imaging optical system and the second imaging optical system. The imaging device captures a superposed image composed of the two input images that have been formed by the first imaging optical system and the second imaging optical system, modulated by the first modulation mask and the second modulation mask, and optically superposed on each other, and the first modulation mask and the second modulation mask have mutually different optical transmittance distribution characteristics.
Abstract:
An imaging apparatus according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a light source that, in operation, emits first pulsed light and second pulsed light, an image sensor that includes at least one pixel including a photodiode, a first charge accumulator and a second charge accumulator, the first charge accumulator and the second charge accumulator, in operation, accumulating signal charge from the photodiode, and a control circuit that, in operation, controls the image sensor. The control circuit, in operation, causes the first charge accumulator to begin to accumulate the signal charge a period of time after the light source begins to emit the first pulsed light. The control circuit, in operation, causes the second charge accumulator to begin to accumulate the signal charge the period of time after the light source begins to emit the second pulsed light.
Abstract:
A display device of the disclosure includes a projector including optical elements to project images on left or right eye of an observer and a frame connected to the projector for mounting on the observer. With the frame mounted on the observer, at least part of the projector is placed in visual fields of the eyes, and length from tangent point between leftmost one among lines of sight of the left eye overlapping outline of at least the part and the outline to intersection between an imaginary line through the tangent point parallel to direction of pupillary distance of the observer and rightmost one among lines of sight of the right eye overlapping the outline is shorter than the pupillary distance in a top plan view of the display device.
