Provided is an information processing apparatus that includes a control unit. The control unit controls a photographing range of an imaging unit based on a difference between a photographing plan of the imaging unit and an actual photographing state estimated from sensor information. The photographing plan includes information indicating a movement trajectory and a photographing attitude of the imaging unit.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and moving device

There is provided a mobile device that operates in order to image a subject, the mobile device including an imaging unit, a sensor that recognizes a surrounding environment, and a light emitting unit disposed on a housing in a ring shape or on the entire surface of the housing. The operation of the mobile device includes imaging, based on a set photographing plan, with the imaging unit, the subject recognized by the sensor as the mobile device moves. The light emitting unit performs a light emission expression corresponding to at least one of the photographing plan and the operation of the mobile device.

Mobile device, imaging system, and method of controlling mobile device

A display apparatus is attachable to a user. The display apparatus includes a display, a substrate connected to the display and bendable, and an actuator configured to generate a driving force to move the display in a first direction that intersects a display surface of the display. The actuator is disposed at a position shifted from the display in a second direction different from the first direction. The substrate is fixed at a position closer in the second direction to a surface of the display on a side where the actuator is located than to a surface of the display on a side where the actuator is not located. The substrate extends in the second direction from a connected portion of the substrate connected to the display toward the side where the actuator is located.

Display apparatus

A display device includes a pair of display units each including displaysR andL and ocular optical systemsR andL. A first driving unit can change an optical positional relationship between the displaysR andL and the ocular optical systemsR andL. A second driving unit can change an interval between the pair of display units. An interpupillary distance adjustment unit adjusts the interval between the display units by the second driving unit in accordance with a detection result obtained by the interpupillary distance detector. After interpupillary distance adjustment is performed, a diopter adjustment unit performs diopter adjustment related to the display unit by the first driving unit.

Display device, control method thereof

A driving apparatus includes a fixed unit, a first movable unit held rotatably about a first axis relative to the fixed unit, a second movable unit held rotatably about a second axis different from the first axis relative to the first movable unit, a bearing configured to support the first movable unit rotatably about the first axis relative to the fixed unit, a first wiring having one end connected to the fixed unit and another end connected to the first movable unit, and a second wiring having one end connected to the fixed unit and another end connected to one of the first movable unit and the second movable unit. The first wiring includes a wound portion wound around the first axis and provided outside the bearing in a radial direction of the bearing. The second wiring is inserted inside the bearing.

Driving apparatus

Display device capable of interpupillary distance adjustment and diopter adjustment, and control method thereof

A display unit and a lens included in a display device constitute a plurality of display optical systems that display a video for each of a user's left eye and right eye. The display device includes a diopter change instruction unit and a diopter change driving unit that can change a diopter related to the plurality of display optical systems, and an object position calculation unit that calculates an object position of a display object in a video. The diopter change instruction unit gives a driving instruction to the diopter change driving unit on the basis of information acquired from a user information recording unit and an operation mode recording unit that record information on usage conditions of the display device.

Display device, control method thereof, and recording medium

A control apparatus for a vibration type actuator that moves a vibrating body in which vibrations are excited by an electromechanical energy conversion element, and a contact body contacting the vibrating body relative to each other includes a generation unit configured to generate multi-phase driving signals having a phase difference applied to the electromechanical energy conversion element, and a detection unit configured to detect an actual position of a movable unit including the vibrating body or the contact body. The generation unit sets the phase difference based on a deviation of the actual position from a target position of the movable unit. The generation unit makes larger a change rate of the phase difference against the deviation from when the movable unit stops to when the movable unit starts moving as the target position changes than that after the movable unit starts moving.

Control apparatus, control method, and driving apparatus of vibration type actuator

A driving control apparatus that controls driving of a vibration actuator having a plurality of electromechanical energy conversion elements. The driving control apparatus includes a controller configured to generate a plurality of driving signals each of which has a same waveform and has a different phase, and to respectively apply the plurality of driving signals to different elements of the plurality of electromechanical energy conversion elements. The controller changes the waveform according to the phase. A shape of a first waveform according to a first phase is closer to a square wave shape than a shape of a second waveform according to a second phase that is larger than the first phase.

Driving control apparatus, driving apparatus and driving control method

An electronic apparatus reduced in a space surrounding a battery chamber and capable of stably supplying electric power. The electronic apparatus is provided with a battery chamber into and from which a battery for supplying electric power is inserted and removed. The battery chamber is defined by an exterior cover forming part of the appearance of the electronic apparatus, and the exterior cover is provided with a battery holding member that defines, when the battery is inserted into the battery chamber, a position of the battery in a direction of insertion thereof. A battery contact member is brought into contact with a terminal provided on the battery to thereby supply electric power from the battery to the electronic apparatus.
