Abstract: A welding-type helmet includes a cover with a channel recessed from an external surface of the cover, the channel being configured to house a removable light source within the channel.

Abstract: Disclosed example weld monitoring systems include: a camera having a field of view and configured to capture images of the field of view of the camera; a light source coupled to the camera and configured to project a visible indicator onto an object that is within the field of view of the camera, such that the visible indicator at least partially overlaps the field of view of the camera; and communication circuitry configured to transmit data representative of the images.

Abstract: Provided is a light attached to a helmet where the light does not move when a face shield of the helmet is rotated up or down.

Abstract: An example head-worn device includes a camera, a display device, weld detection circuitry, and pixel data processing circuitry. The camera generates first pixel data from a field of view of the head-worn device. The display device displays second pixel data to a wearer of the head-worn device based on the first pixel data captured by the camera. The weld detection circuitry determines whether a welding arc is present and generates a control signal indicating a result of the determination. The pixel data processing circuitry processes the first pixel data captured by the camera to generate the second pixel data for display on the display device, where a mode of operation of said pixel data processing circuitry is selected from a plurality of modes based on said control signal.

Abstract: A system comprises light intensity detection circuitry and pixel data processing circuitry. The light intensity detection circuitry is operable to determine whether a welding arc is present based on an intensity of light incident captured by the light intensity detection circuitry, and generate a control signal indicating a result of the determination. A mode of operation of the image processing circuitry may be selected from a plurality of modes based on the control signal. The light intensity detection circuitry may comprise, for example, a passive infrared sensor, a photodiode, and/or circuitry of a camera. The pixel data processing circuitry may comprise, for example, circuitry of a camera, a special purpose graphics processing unit, and/or a general purpose processing unit.
