  • Publication number: 20240053661
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are apparatus and system aspects for a removable filter holder. An aspect includes a camera lens body, camera lenses positioned within the camera lens body, slots along the camera lens body among the camera lenses, guide mechanisms positioned in the slots, and removable filter holders positioned in the slots along the guide mechanisms. The removable filter holders of this aspect include an upper flange that partially contacts the camera lens body via a bottom surface, a perimeter gasket coupled to the bottom surface of the upper flange, and a shaft coupled to the bottom surface of the upper flange. The shaft of this aspect includes a removable filter, a filter setting configured to hold the removable filter, and an arm that connects the upper flange to the filter setting.

  • Publication number: 20240056666
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an image sensor package including a printed circuit board, an image sensor electrically coupled to the printed circuit board, a sealing configuration coupled to a front face of the printed circuit board via a first gasket, and a base coupled to a back face of the printed circuit board via a second gasket. Electronic components embedded on the back face of the printed circuit board align with and connect to mating pads surrounding the image sensor on the front face of the printed circuit board. Wire bonds electrically connect the image sensor to the mating pads and the electronic components. The sealing configuration includes a cover attached to a frame surrounding the image sensor. A gap separates the image sensor from abutting the surrounding printed circuit board, which is coupled to the image sensor via the base.

  • Publication number: 20240053655
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are apparatus and system aspects for a camera lens flexure collar. An aspect includes an interior wall with one or more inner protrusions, an exterior wall with one or more openings, a cam located between the interior wall and the exterior wall, an actuator arm coupled to the cam and extending through the one or more openings of the exterior wall, and two flexures. The aspect operates through manipulation of the actuator arm, where manipulation of the actuator arm moves the cam and causes a force through the one or more inner protrusions of the interior wall, causing the interior wall to move in the axial direction within the stress limitations of the two flexures. In this aspect, movement of the interior wall in the axial direction can focus one or more camera lenses.

  • Publication number: 20240056665
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, and method for accurately setting a focus flange depth and planarity of a camera lens. An aspect includes a lens housing with at least one camera lens, a camera body with an imaging plane, and a lens mount removably coupling the lens housing to the camera body via a coupling mechanism. At least one shim may be inserted between the lens mount and the camera body to adjust a depth, pitch, and yaw of the camera lens in the lens housing with respect to the imaging plane in the camera body. Each shim may comprise a body having an opening extending from an edge of the body to a center of the body. The opening of each shim is configured to receive the coupling mechanism such that the pitch and yaw may be adjusted without fully removing the lens housing from the camera body.

  • Publication number: 20230239528
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products can provide visual guidance on presenting content on a media surface of a venue. These systems, methods, and computer program products can operate by mapping visual content onto a media surface of the venue and a key feature unique to the visual content and/or the media surface being extracted. Thereafter, these systems, methods, and computer program products can retrieve an experiment metric corresponding to the visual content and/or the media surface and can determine a viewer location metric and/or a media surface metric based on the experiment metric and the key feature. These systems, methods, and computer program products can utilize the viewer location metric and/or the media surface metric to provide a hint of the attribute to a user.
