Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing shake correction devices for imaging devices attached to telescopic poles are ineffective in correcting the shaking caused by wind and other factors, as they fail to accurately adjust for the varying lengths and conditions of the pole.
Innovation Solution
A shake correction device equipped with a shake detection sensor, an extraction filter selector, and an extraction filter selection controller that adjusts the extraction filter based on the pole's length, weight, and rigidity to effectively correct the shaking of the video captured by the imaging device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a conventional shake correction device is used on an imaging device attached to a telescopic pole, then the device structure is simple, but the shake correction effectiveness is poor due to inability to adapt to varying pole lengths and wind conditions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the extraction filter selection changeable based on pole length. The extraction filter selection controller dynamically selects different extraction filters from multiple available filters according to the detected pole length, allowing the shake correction device to adapt to varying wind conditions and pole characteristics rather than using a fixed filter configuration
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the frequency band parameters of the extraction filter based on pole length. By selecting different extraction filters with different frequency band characteristics suited to different pole lengths, the system optimizes the correction of shaking components without requiring a complete redesign of the device structure
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple extraction filters are provided to handle different pole lengths, then the shake correction adaptability is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-providing multiple extraction filters with different frequency band characteristics before operation. The extraction filter selection controller is pre-programmed with the correspondence between pole lengths and appropriate extraction filters, enabling automatic selection without real-time complex calculations or manual adjustment
Solution Approach 2:
The shake correction device performs self-service by automatically selecting the appropriate extraction filter based on the detected pole length. The extraction filter selection controller autonomously determines which filter to use without requiring external intervention, simplifying the adaptation process while maintaining versatility

AI summary
A shake detection sensor detects the shaking of an imaging device attached to a telescopic pole. An extraction filter selector selects any extraction filter from a plurality of extraction filters, and extracts a signal component of a predetermined frequency band in a detection signal, which is outputted from the shake detection sensor, by the selected extraction filter. A shake corrector corrects the shaking of video captured by the imaging device, based on the signal component outputted from the extraction filter selector. An extraction filter selection controller controls the extraction filter selector to select any extraction filter among the plurality of extraction filters in response to the length of the pole.
