Abstract: A thermal imaging system including at least one thermal imaging device, a server, and at least one mobile device. The thermal imaging device captures thermal images of an environment. The server applies computer vision techniques to the thermal images, detects events of a predetermined type, and generates notifications of the events of predetermined types detected from the thermal images. The mobile device runs a mobile application that is configured to receive the notifications, present user interfaces, receive user annotations of the notifications in the user interfaces, and transmit the annotations to the server. According to the annotations, the server adjusts parameters used in the application of the computer vision techniques and in the generation of the notifications.

Abstract: A radiation imaging apparatus includes an imaging surface; a light source; and an array of micro mirrors that rotate via radiation absorbed in the micro mirrors and reflect light from the light source to generate a distribution of reflected light on the imaging surface. The array first micro mirrors and second micro mirrors. The first micro mirrors have a first structure and the second micro mirrors have a second structure different than the first structure. The second structure is configured to correct for one or more environmental influences on the radiation imaging apparatus. A photodetector captures an image of the distribution of reflected light on the imaging surface. A processor is coupled to the photodetector. A communication interface is coupled with the processor; and a computing device is located separately from the radiation imaging apparatus and in communication with the communication interface.

Abstract: Imaging apparatuses and enclosures configured for deployment in connection with ceilings and downlight cavities are disclosed. Certain exemplary aspects relate to imaging apparatuses for monitoring, recording or imaging a space such as a room having overhead lighting provided via ceiling structures that may include enclosures and/or downlight fixtures within ceiling cavities, and various imaging apparatuses herein may include an infrared or thermal camera, for example, for imaging within such spaces.

Abstract: Systems combining an optical camera and an infrared camera in a single device having a single output, the systems provide low cost production and a hybrid output having optical and infrared elements processed by a processor embedded in the single device, the output of the single device having a relatively low size image overlay and providing a full video stream having optical and infrared elements as well as a hybrid image having an overlay of the optical and infrared elements.

Abstract: A camera assembly, including: an enclosure having at least two mounting surfaces that are orthogonal to each other for alignment with at least two orthogonal surfaces against which the camera assembly is to be mounted; at least one imaging apparatus disposed within the enclosure and having a predetermined orientation with respect to the enclosure; and a communication device disposed within the enclosure; and a server disposed at a location remote from where the camera is mounted. The camera assembly and the server communicate over a computer communication network to identify at least one mounting measurement of the camera assembly to establish a mapping from an image coordinate system for images generated by the imaging apparatus and a real world coordinate system aligned with an orientation defined by the at least two orthogonal surfaces.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing on-board electromagnetic radiation sensing using beam splitting in a radiation sensing apparatus. The radiation sensing apparatuses can include a micro-mirror chip including a plurality of light reflecting surfaces. The apparatuses can also include an image sensor including an imaging surface. The apparatuses can also include a beamsplitter unit located between the micro-mirror chip and the image sensor. The beamsplitter unit can include a beamsplitter that includes a partially-reflective surface that is oblique to the imaging surface and the micro-mirror chip. The apparatuses can also include an enclosure configured to enclose at least the beamsplitter and a light source. With the apparatuses, the light source can be attached to a printed circuit board (PCB). Also, the enclosure can include an inner surface that has an angled reflective surface that is configured to reflect light from the light source in a direction towards the beamsplitter.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing electromagnetic radiation sensing using sequential beam splitting. The apparatuses can include a micro-mirror chip having a plurality of light reflecting surfaces, an image sensor having an imaging surface, and a beamsplitter unit located between the micro-mirror chip and the image sensor. The beamsplitter unit includes a plurality of beamsplitters aligned along a horizontal axis that is parallel to the micro-mirror chip and the imaging surface. The beamsplitters implement the sequential beam splitting. Because of the structure of the beamsplitter unit, the height of the arrangement of the micro-mirror chip, the beamsplitter unit, and the image sensor is reduced such that the arrangement can fit within a mobile device.
