5 results about "Active camera" patented technology

An active infrared system may include at least one metamaterial optical element. The active infrared system may also include at least one lens assembly optically aligned with the at least one metamaterial optical element. The active infrared system may also include at least one active camera optically aligned with the at least one metamaterial optical element. The at least one metamaterial optical element of the active infrared system may also be configured with at least a reflection mode for reflecting at least one light waveband reflected by a remote object and a transmission mode for transmitting a uniform background light that is wider than the at least one light waveband reflected by the remote object.

The invention discloses an automated microgels dispensing and micro-bioreactor system integrating air piezo pumps (1–4), liquid piezo pumps (5–6), solenoid valves (7–8), and dispensing chip docker (9) controlled by an edge computer (16) The system dispenses bioactive microgels from vials (10–13) through a microgels dispensing chip (21) with sheath media inlet (20) and nozzle (22), monitored by an active camera (23) at microfluidic intersection (24). A flow sensor (25) and temperature controller (26) regulate precise flow and uniform heating. Dispensed microgels are cultured in a micro-bioreactor (33) maintained by X–Y–Z translation stage (37) with selective perfusion and optical analysis via light source (30), beam splitter (31), objective lens (32), and monochrome camera (27). The system provides uniform thermal distribution, real-time imaging, and programmable microfluidic control for scalable, sterile, and automated biological assays.

An electronic device, method, and computer program product provide improved zoom functionality for a hand-held electronic device. The electronic device includes a front camera and a back camera and a distance measuring unit to detect an amount of lateral movement of the electronic device relative to a user. The processor activates an automated (auto) zoom feature while an active camera is selected to receive and capture a first image. The processor: determines a starting distance from the electronic device to the user; and in response to detecting lateral motion of the electronic device relative to the user, while the auto zoom feature is activated with the selected active camera, perform, with the active camera, an automated zoom of the corresponding FOV by performing at least one of: zooming when the electronic device moves towards the first image; or zooming out when the electronic device moves away from the first image.
