摘要:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system and method for identifying objects with captured images. One embodiment of the present invention is a method comprising the steps of actuating a controller configured to cause an image capture device to operate in a property identification (ID) mode; capturing an image of an object, thereby generating an object image when the image capture device is operating in the property ID mode; and capturing at least one high-resolution image of a unique feature of the object, thereby generating at least one identification (ID) image when the image capture device is operating in the property ID mode.

An image capturing device includes a focusable lens apparatus, an image sensor comprising a plurality of pixel elements, and an electronically actuatable shutter device including a plurality of individually addressable and actuatable shutter elements. A shutter element substantially corresponds to one or more pixel elements. A processor controls a focus depth of the lens apparatus and selectively actuates particular shutter elements associated with each of a plurality of focus depths during image capture.

A print medium that is expandable and collapsible comprises two sheets separated by at least one collapsible brace. The collapsible brace includes a first wall attached to one of the sheets and a second wall that swings in relation to the first wall. The swinging motion of the second wall in one direction expands a distance between the two sheets, while a swinging motion of the second wall in the opposite direction collapses the distance between the two sheets. At least one sheet of the paper may include an ink receiving layer. When the collapsible brace is expanded, the print medium becomes a substantially rigid structure.

An adjustable filter for suppressing radio frequency emission is disclosed. The adjustable filter comprises a ferrite material inductively coupled to a signal carrier, the signal carrier having current at a first frequency and a second frequency, and a signal carrier having an adjustable inductance for adjusting the electrical characteristics of the signal carrier. Adjusting the electrical characteristics of the signal carrier reduces saturation of the ferrite material at the first frequency, thereby allowing the ferrite material to suppress current at the second frequency, where the second frequency is higher than the first frequency.

A print media having a first sheet that is elastic about a plane of its printable surface is adhered to a second sheet that is rigid about the plane of the printable surface. The two sheets are separable such that the first sheet may be separated from the second sheet after transferring a desired image to the printable surface. By transferring an image to the printable surface of the first sheet, and by subsequently removing the second sheet, a stretchable image is produced on the first sheet.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) elements facilitate protection of electronic components from ESD events. The ESD element includes a pair of spark gaps between a first side and second side of the ESD element. The first side of the ESD element includes a peaked portion and a substantially planar portion. The second side of the ESD element includes a peaked portion opposite the substantially planar portion of the first side and a substantially planar portion opposite the peaked portion of the first side. This asymmetry facilitates use of peaked emitters regardless of the polarity of the charge applied to the ESD element while further facilitating the use of more optimized receiver surfaces opposite the emitters.

An electrostatic discharge apparatus and method for a lens of a hand-held imaging device are provided according to the invention. The electrostatic discharge apparatus includes a main body and an optical lens mounted on the main body. A transparent conductive coating is formed on the optical lens. The device further includes a conductive pad formed on the main body. The conductive pad is in electrical contact with the transparent conductive coating. The conductive pad is located on the main body at a region contacted by a user during use of the hand-held imaging device.
