Abstract: A handheld image stabilization device with a housing, a gimbal, a motor, a printed circuit board (PCB), a microphone, and a dampener. The gimbal has three arms. The motor assembly has multiple motors such that respective ones of the multiple motors are located on respective ones of the three arms. The microphone is attached to a surface of the PCB and configured to detect audio waves, wherein the audio waves include acoustic noise from the motor assembly. The dampener is disposed between the motor assembly and the PCB, wherein the dampener is configured to reduce the acoustic noise from the motor assembly.

Abstract: A handheld image stabilization device or an image capture device includes a housing, a motor, a microphone, and a dampener. The housing includes a first port. The motor is attached to the housing. The microphone detects audio waves via the first port and vibration noise of the motor via the housing. The audio waves may include acoustic noise from the motor. The dampener is coupled to the housing. The dampener reduces the acoustic noise from the motor and the vibration noise from the motor.

Abstract: A camera housing includes four walls configured to enclose and secure a camera: a top wall, a bottom wall, a right wall, and a left wall. The bottom wall includes a first segment and a segment coupled by a latching mechanism. The latching mechanism comprises a tongue component coupled to the second segment and a groove component coupled to the first segment. The tongue and groove components are configured such that the tongue component securely couples the second segment to the first segment when the camera frame is in the closed configuration. In the open configuration, the first and second segment can decouple and the left wall and second segment rotates upwards relative to the top wall such that a camera can be inserted or removed from the camera system. The camera housing also includes a button interface, an input/output interface, and a mounting mechanism.

Abstract: In one aspect of the present disclosure, a module is disclosed for use with a digital image capturing device (DICD) including an integrated sensor-lens assembly (ISLA). The module includes a cradle configured for connection to a housing of the DICD, and at least one dampener that is configured for positioning between the module and the housing of the DICD to reduce vibrations transmitted to the ISLA.
