    摘要: An imaging apparatus includes a processor executing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the imaging apparatus to detect an object included in an image captured by an imaging unit, generate meta data conforming to annotated regions supplemental enhancement information (ARSEI) including positional information for the object detected from the image, and transmit transmission data including coded data generated by encoding the image and the meta data related to the image to an external apparatus, wherein, in a case where a variation of a parameter of a first object detected from a second image captured after a first image with respect to the parameter of the first object detected from the first image is less than a threshold value, meta data not including positional information for the first object in the second image is generated as meta data related to the second image.

    摘要: A sensor assembly is provided. The sensor assembly includes a housing including an opening, a circuit substrate disposed in the inside of the housing, an image sensor electrically connected to the circuit substrate, a light-control member configured to change light transmittance from a light transmission state capable of transmitting external light to a light reflection state capable of reflecting light according to application of power, and a contact member disposed adjacent to the opening and allowing light to pass therethrough. wherein, when viewed from a lateral side, the light-control member is disposed such that a longitudinal extension line of the light-control member and a longitudinal extension line of the contact member may form a predetermined angle therebetween, when the light-control member is in the light transmission state, the image sensor is disposed to obtain an image over the light-control member, and when the light-control member is in the light reflection state, the image sensor is disposed to receive light reflected by the light-control member and light directly incident through the contact member.

    摘要: An information processing apparatus includes a processor, and a memory connected to or built in the processor, in which the processor performs first distance measurement of measuring a distance to an imaging region based on an irradiation timing at which a light irradiator emits light to the imaging region and a light-receiving timing at which a light receiver receives reflected light of the light from the imaging region, performs second distance measurement of measuring the distance to the imaging region based on a first image obtained by imaging the imaging region by an imaging apparatus, and executes a specific process in a case in which a first distance measurement result obtained by performing the first distance measurement and a second distance measurement result obtained by performing the second distance measurement are different from each other.

    摘要: Various embodiments disclosed herein include techniques for operating a multiple camera system. In some embodiments, a primary camera may be selected from a plurality of cameras using object distance estimates, distance error information, and minimum object distances for some or all of the plurality of cameras. In other embodiments, a camera may be configured to use defocus information to obtain an object distance estimate to a target object closer than a minimum object distance of the camera. This object distance estimate may be used to assist in focusing another camera of the multi-camera system.
