  • Publication number: 20210401252
    Abstract: An automatic guiding method for a self-propelled apparatus (10) is provided. The self-propelled apparatus (10) turns and irradiates when a signal light emitted by a charging dock (20) is sensed by a flank sensor (103), and changes its turn direction when another different signal light from the charging dock (20) is sensed by a forward sensor (102). The charging dock (20) switches to emit another signal light different from the signal light currently emitted when each time is triggered by the signal light emitted by the self-propelled apparatus (10). Repeatedly execute the above actions and make the self-propelled apparatus approach the light-emitting unit (202) until the self-propelled apparatus (10) reaches a charging position. It can accurately guide the self-propelled apparatus (10) to the charging position by arranging only two sensors on the self-propelled apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10992874
    Abstract: The present application related to a camera system and a camera fill light method. The camera system establishes a wireless communications connection with a fill light, captures an original image by a camera in the camera system, and then transmits a first test light signal to the fill light such that a first flash is performed by the fill light. The camera captures a first light source image during the first flash period of the fill light. A fill light controller in the camera system compares differences of the brightness or the chroma of different image information and, after determining the present location of the fill light, calculates a dislocation result of the present location of the fill light and the best placement location of the fill light. The camera system yields the dislocation result to the photographer via a notification message.
