==MOVABLE APPARATUS AND INSTALLATION METHOD FOR IMAGING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18472278 titled 'MOVABLE APPARATUS AND INSTALLATION METHOD FOR IMAGING DEVICE

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a movable apparatus with an imaging device that can capture images with high resolution across a wide range. The apparatus includes a first imaging device with an optical system that forms an optical image with a low resolution region near the optical axis and a high resolution region outside the low resolution region.

* The movable apparatus is configured with a first imaging device at a specific installation position to capture images in various directions.
* The first imaging device has an optical system that allows for high resolution imaging in the region outside the low resolution area near the optical axis.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in:
* Surveillance systems
* Autonomous vehicles
* Aerial photography

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the problem of capturing high-resolution images across a wide range of directions with a single imaging device.

== Benefits ==
* Improved image quality
* Simplified imaging setup
* Enhanced surveillance capabilities

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
"High-Resolution Imaging Apparatus for Surveillance Systems"

== Possible Prior Art ==
There may be prior art related to movable imaging devices with high-resolution capabilities, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.

== Unanswered Questions ==

=== How does the movable apparatus handle image stabilization during capture? ===
The patent application does not mention any specific details about image stabilization technology used in the movable apparatus.

=== What is the power source for the movable apparatus? ===
The abstract does not provide information on the power source for the apparatus, which could be crucial for its operation and mobility.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

In order to dispose an imaging device so that it can image a wide range with high resolution, a movable apparatus is configured such that a first imaging device is installed at a first installation position, the first imaging device including an optical system that forms an optical image, which has a low resolution region near an optical axis and a high resolution region outside the low resolution region, on a light receiving surface of an imaging element, and the first installation position being a position where an image is captured in at least one of a horizontal backward direction of one side surface of the movable apparatus, right or left direction in a horizontal direction ahead a driver's seat of the movable apparatus, and a downward direction ahead the movable apparatus in the high resolution region of the optical system.
