  • Publication number: 20230174197
    Abstract: A camera mounting system for a vehicle. The camera mounting system comprises a base mount configured to be coupled with an exterior surface of the vehicle. The base mount includes an interior space. The camera mounting system additionally comprises a sub-housing received within the interior space of the base mount. The sub-housing is configured to rotate within the base mount. The camera mounting system additionally comprises a camera configured to be removably mounted to the sub-housing. As such, when the camera is mounted to the sub-housing, the camera is configured to rotate in conjunction with the sub-housing. The camera mounting system additionally comprises at least one damper configured to permit a position of the camera to translate toward the sub-housing in response to an external object impacting the camera. The camera mounting system further comprises at least one attitude sensor configured to sense an orientation of the camera.

  • Patent number: 11009658
    Abstract: Light detectors that combine field emission with light focusing by surface plasmon polaritons. Methods and devices that allow detection and measurement of light at high frequencies in the THz range are described. The disclosed devices include plasmonic metal contacts with a narrow nanometer-sized gap to couple an optical waveguide mode into a plasmonic mode thereby generating filed emission currents by biasing the contacts.

  • Patent number: 10622181
    Abstract: Nanoscale field-emission devices are presented, wherein the devices include at least a pair of electrodes separated by a gap through which field emission of electrons from one electrode to the other occurs. The gap is dimensioned such that only a low voltage is required to induce field emission. As a result, the emitted electrons energy that is below the ionization potential of the gas or gasses that reside within the gap. In some embodiments, the gap is small enough that the distance between the electrodes is shorter than the mean-free path of electrons in air at atmospheric pressure. As a result, the field-emission devices do not require a vacuum environment for operation.
