  • Patent number: 11991479
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a time-lapse photographic device. The time-lapse photographic device includes a camera module, a drive module, an environment detection module, and a control unit. The drive module is connected to the camera module to drive the camera module to rotate. The environment detection module is configured to detect an external environment of the time-lapse photographic device to generate an environment detection signal. The control unit is electrically connected to the camera module, the drive module, and the environment detection module. The control unit generates, according to a shooting stop parameter, a plurality of intermittent drive signals to control the drive module, and controls the camera module to shoot at intervals of the drive signals. The control unit adjusts operation of at least one of the camera module and the drive module according to the environment detection signal.

  • Publication number: 20240065390
    Abstract: Bands for wearable devices include multiple band retainers used to maintain engagement between an assembly (e.g., a pair) of bands. Some band retainers may be permanently affixed with the band at a certain location of the band, while other band retainers can be removable. The removable band retainers can be moved to different locations of the band, thus allowing the band retainer to retain another band at different locations. As a result, the assembly of bands can be used with different users, and in particular, users with different wrist sizes. Moreover, using multiple band retainers can provide an engagement force between the bands to withstand higher-impact events, such as swimming and diving. Additionally, bands and band retainers may include one or more liquid-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials.

  • Publication number: 20220341965
    Abstract: An electronic device with function of recording falling and hitting events is provided. The electronic device includes a gravity sensing unit, a computing unit, and a memory unit. The gravity sensing unit is configured to generate a gravity sensing signal. The computing unit is electrically connected to the gravity unit and is configured to: continuously receive the gravity sensing signal; determine, based on the gravity sensing signal, whether the electronic device enters a falling state or not; determine, based on the gravity sensing signal, whether the electronic device encounters a hitting within a predetermined period of time or not after entering the falling state; and output a falling and hitting record when it is determined that the electronic device encounters a hitting. The memory unit is electrically connected to the computing unit and configured to store the falling and hitting record.
