  • Patent number: 11954290
    Abstract: Provided are an imaging apparatus, an imaging method, and a program capable of accurately and simply controlling a movement sensitivity of an index displayed on a finder monitor to a sensitivity desired by a user by using a touch panel installed on a rear monitor. The imaging apparatus (10) has a finder that includes the finder monitor (13), the touch panel (31) that receives a swipe operation for moving the index, and an image processing unit (24). The image processing unit (24) includes a sensitivity setting unit that sets a first sensitivity for coarsely moving the index by the swipe operation or a second sensitivity for finely moving the index by detecting a contact operation to the touch panel in the swipe operation, and a movement control unit that moves the index on the basis of the swipe operation on the touch panel and the sensitivity set by the sensitivity setting unit.

  • Patent number: 11916409
    Abstract: A power transmitting device includes a power transmission unit using contactless power supply, processing circuitry configured to switch a power transmission mode of the power transmission unit between a normal output mode and a limit mode, and a transmission-side communication unit configured to execute communication with a power receiving device. The processing circuitry is configured to determine whether the power receiving device is a registered power receiving device based on information related to the power receiving device obtained from the transmission-side communication unit, determine whether the registered power receiving device is located inside a power transmission range of the power transmission unit, set the power transmission mode to the normal output mode when determining that the registered power receiving device is located inside the range, and set the power transmission mode to the limit mode when determining that the registered power receiving device is not located inside the range.

    Abstract: Provided are a blur detection device, an imaging device, a lens device, an imaging device main body, a blur detection method, and a blur detection program capable of appropriately detecting blurring of an imaging device. An angular velocity of a digital camera and a posture of the digital camera with respect to an Earth's rotation axis are detected. An Earth's rotation angular velocity component superimposed on a detection result of the angular velocity is calculated. The Earth's rotation angular velocity component is subtracted from the detection result of the angular velocity, and a blur amount of the digital camera is calculated based on the subtracted angular velocity.
