Abstract: A photo booth having detachable upper cover includes a supporting stage, a rotatable shooting stand, and a driving assembly. The driving assembly is configured to drive the rotatable shooting stand to circumferentially rotate around the supporting stage. The supporting stage includes an upper cover and a reinforcement frame, and the upper cover detachably covers the reinforcement frame. The reinforcement frame includes a supporting ring, six supporting rods, and a connecting portion. The supporting ring is generally annular, and the six supporting rings and the connecting portions are disposed in a ring of the supporting ring. A first end of each of the six supporting rods is connected to an inner wall of the supporting rings, and a second end of each of the six supporting rods is connected to the connecting portion. The six supporting rods are uniformly disposed along a circumferential direction of the supporting ring.

Abstract: A 360-degree camera device having atmosphere lamp includes a supporting platform, a supporting spindle, a supporting base, and a rotating shooting bracket. The supporting platform includes a first supporting element, a tempered glass, a first light source, and a reflecting mirror. The first supporting element is configured to support the tempered glass. The tempered glass is a single-sided perspective glass including a light-transmitting surface and a reflecting surface. An interval area is disposed between the tempered glass and the reflecting mirror. The reflecting mirror and the reflecting surface are oppositely disposed. The first light source is disposed in the interval area. The first light source is in a shape of graphics and/or characters. The first light source includes a plurality of point-shaped light-emitting parts. The first light source is substantially disposed in an annular shape and disposed along edge contour of the tempered glass or the reflective mirror.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are described that provide automated and efficient optimization of camera settings. In certain embodiments of the invention, both focus and exposure settings are determined based on an analysis of compressed images taken of a frame. Based on this analysis, the camera focus and exposure settings are set to provide a preferred image quality of the particular frame. This optimization of the focus and exposure settings is performed at each frame within the multi-frame image source. As a result, each frame image is independently optimized and addresses variations, such as light and surface inconsistencies, across the multi-frame image source.

Abstract: Cameras and methods are provided for recording more than one image on a photosensitive element. The cameras and methods record the images in the form of separate patterns of concentrated image elements. Apparatuses and methods are provided for recovering images from the concentrated image elements.

Abstract: A preexposure apparatus comprises a film supply station ST1 for arranging a film cartridge 14 containing a film 12 accommodated therein, a film-drawing station-ST3 for automatically drawing the film 12 over its entire length, an exposure station ST5 for exposing a predetermined portion of the drawn film 12 with an image by the aid of an exposure section 32, a winding station ST6 for automatically rewinding the film 12 after the exposure into the film cartridge 14, and a withdrawing station ST8 for withdrawing the film cartridge 14. Accordingly, the predetermined portion of the film can be preexposed with a desired image automatically and efficiently.

Abstract: A stereo camera capable of photographing a stereo picture maintaining an optimum stereo effect. Right and left lens boards 42R, 42L of a stereo camera 41 are coupled to a camera body 46 via upper and lower two sets of parallel links 47. Parallel grooves 45L, 45R are formed in the lateral direction in the inner portions of the lens boards 42L, 42R, and with which a circular eccentric cam 43 is engaged. When the shaft mounting the cam 43 is turned, the right and left lens boards 42R and 42L move in parallel describing circular loci, making it possible to automatically adjust the focal point as well as the distance between the optical axes of the lenses, which is important for accomplishing a stereo effect.

Abstract: A stereo camera optimally corrects a parallax despite a photographing distance. Lens boards of right and left photographing lenses are mounted with slide guides for obliquely feeding in an inter-optical axis distance approaching direction as the lens boards are fed. When a focusing knob is rotated, the photographing lenses and a finder lens are integrally advanced or retracted in response to the rotating direction of a cam shaft. The slide guides are so disposed that the right and left visual fields are brought into agreement at a close distance at the close distance photographing and the right and left visual fields are brought into agreement at the close distance as compared with the focal distance at the time of remote distance photographing. Accordingly, the unnatural of the remote or close distance feeling generated by the influence of the close distance subject at the human collimation at the time of remote distance photographing, and ideal stereo effect is obtained at all the photographing distances.
