20100150541 | MOVABLE LENS SYSTEMS AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - The present invention generally relates to photography, including both still photography and moving picture photography. One aspect of the invention is directed toward a lens system that includes a movable or flexible lens body carrying a lens. The lens body and lens can be moved to multiple user selected positions. The system further includes a retention device that is configured to retain the flexible lens body in the various user selected positions. In selected embodiments, the system includes an actuator for tilting the lens relative to a camera and/or for focusing the camera lens system. | 06-17-2010 |
20110019294 | MOVABLE LENS ASSEMBLY AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - A lens assembly is provided for use with a camera having a camera body. The lens assembly in accordance with one embodiment comprises a lens body portion having camera mount configured to be connected to the camera body. A lens body is connected to the camera mount, and an adapter is connected to the lens body. An optic assembly is removably connected to the adapter and is axially moveable relative to the lens body. The optic assembly has a housing connectable to the adapter, and an optic is carried by the housing. The optic assembly is removable from the lens body portion while the lens body portion remains on the camera body. A focus assembly is coupled to the adapter and configured to axially adjust a position of the optic assembly relative to the lens body to control focus of the lens assembly when the optic assembly is installed in the lens body. | 01-27-2011 |
20110105908 | Finger mounted imaging probe and skin broaching assembly - An ultrasound finger-mounted probe assembly that has a sensor unit, including: a multi-conductor cable, electrically connected to the connector-half; a finger clip, adapted to be mounted on a human finger; and an ultrasound finger probe supported by the finger clip. Also, a processing unit is adapted to be worn on a human forearm. This processing unit has a data processing unit, electrically connected to the multi-conductor cable and adapted to extract imagery from an ultrasound signal and an RF transmitter unit, adapted to send the extracted imagery to an further RF receiver. | 05-05-2011 |
20120323124 | PROBE WITH DORSAL CONNECTIVITY - A probe which has a housing defining a receptacle, an ultrasound transceiver which emits from one aspect of the housing, a cable exiting from an opposing aspect of the housing, wherein the transceiver and cable are interconnected with a connective structure. | 12-20-2012 |
20130208368 | MOVABLE LENS ASSEMBLY AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - The described lens assembly for use with a camera having a camera body includes a tilt assembly portion configured to allow pivotal movement of the lens body relative to the camera body. The lens assembly further includes a focus assembly configured to axially adjust a position of a removable optic assembly mounted to the focus assembly relative to the lens body to control focus of the lens assembly when the optic assembly is installed in the lens body. The lens body and focus assembly may be structured to remain coupled to the camera body after the optic assembly is removed from the focus assembly. | 08-15-2013 |
20150257733 | WEARABLE IMAGING SYSTEM - A wearable ultrasound system comprising an ultrasound probe, a proximal wearable component electrically interconnected with said ultrasound probe adapted to be wearable on the hand, wrist, or arm of a user, and including at least one user interface mechanism, a processor, and one or more displays. | 09-17-2015 |
