  • Publication number: 20200016460
    Abstract: A non-limiting example training instrument comprises a hollow main body formed of an aluminum alloy. The main body is constituted by two gripping portions opposite to each other with a space therebetween and a coupling portion coupling the two gripping portions. A load sensor is arranged in the coupling portion inside the main body. The load sensor is a load cell, a strain gauge affixed to an interior of the main body, and a part of the main body to which the strain gauge is affixed functions as a strain body. Therefore, if a user applies a force so as to bring the two gripping portions close to each other or a force so as to move the two gripping portions away from each other, a load thereof is detected by the load sensor.

  • Patent number: 10477108
    Abstract: Image pickup apparatus includes imaging control circuit, keystone correction circuit, and composite circuit. Imaging control circuit acquires plurality of first images corresponding to subject image formed on imaging plane by image pickup optical system by causing imaging element to execute exposure plurality of times in accordance with imaging instruction. Keystone correction circuit corrects keystone distortion occurring in each first image due to change of attitude of body, by keystone correction based on tilt angle corresponding to each first image, and the optical characteristic, thereby generating plurality second images. Composite circuit generates third image by compositing second images.

  • Publication number: 20190230288
    Abstract: An imaging apparatus detects a shake, calculates a blurring amount of a subject image on the basis of a result of the detection, calculates a correction amount for canceling blurring of the subject image on the basis of the blurring amount, subtracts a subtraction amount per one correction cycle based on the subtraction amount per predetermined period of time from the blurring amount or the correction amount, shifts a part of the optical system in a direction to cancel blurring of a subject image on the basis of any one of a result of the subtraction and the subtraction amount per one correction cycle, and shifts the image pickup element in a direction to cancel blurring of the subject image on the basis of another of the result of the subtraction and the subtraction amount per one correction cycle.
