BLUR CORRECTION DEVICE, LENS BARREL, AND IMAGING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18289909 titled 'BLUR CORRECTION DEVICE, LENS BARREL, AND IMAGING APPARATUS
The patent application describes a blur correction device that includes a lens holding frame, a holding frame that movably holds the lens holding frame, a first drive unit, a lock member, and a detection unit.
- The device corrects blur by moving the lens holding frame with respect to the holding frame in a direction intersecting an optical axis.
- A lock member restricts movement of the lens holding frame in a lock position and releases the restriction in a release position.
- A detection unit detects the amount of movement of the lock member.
Potential Applications:
- Camera lenses
- Microscopes
- Telescopes
Problems Solved:
- Correcting blur in optical devices
- Enhancing image quality
Benefits:
- Improved image sharpness
- Enhanced optical performance
Commercial Applications:
- Photography equipment manufacturers
- Optical instrument companies
Questions about Blur Correction Device: 1. How does the lock member restrict movement in the device? 2. What are the potential commercial applications of this technology?
Frequently Updated Research: Research on advanced lens stabilization techniques for optical devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
A blur correction device includes a lens holding frame that holds a lens, a holding frame that movably holds the lens holding frame, a first drive unit that drives the lens holding frame with respect to the holding frame in a direction intersecting an optical axis, a lock member configured to move between a lock position that restricts movement of the lens holding frame and a release position that releases restriction, and a detection unit configured to detect an amount of movement of the lock member.
