摘要： An image capturing device comprises an elongated body, an imaging window coupled to a distal end of the elongated body, and a heat source within the elongated body. The heat source is configured to apply heat to the imaging window to remove condensation from or prevent condensation from forming on the imaging window.

摘要： A method and apparatus for coupling fiber bundles. A plurality of fibers are secured within a channel of a fastener system to place the plurality of fibers in a packing configuration within the channel. The fastener system and the plurality of fibers secured by the fastener system are cut through to create a first fiber bundle and a second fiber bundle. The first fiber bundle is coupled with the second fiber bundle.

摘要： An image capturing device comprises a first elongated body portion formed of a first material and a second elongated body portion coupled to a proximal end of the first body portion. The second body portion is formed of a second material having a greater heat conductivity than the first material. The device further comprises an imaging window coupled to a distal end of the first body portion, a first housing within the first body portion, an image sensor mounted to the first housing, and an image processor mounted to the first housing and coupled to receive electrical signals from the image sensor. The device further comprises a second housing within the first body portion. The second housing is coupled to the first housing and to the window such that heat generated by the image sensor and image processor is transmitted through the second housing to the window.

摘要： An apparatus comprises a first fastener part having a first set of mating features and a second fastener part having a second set of mating features. Coupling the first set of mating features with the second set of mating features, such that the first set of mating features contacts and at least partially overlaps the second set of mating features, forms a fastener having a channel with a hexagonal cross-section. The channel is configured to receive a plurality of fibers. Coupling the first fastener part to the second fastener part clamps the plurality of fibers in a hexagonal packing configuration.
