Push button for switches

A push-button switch member includes: a movable contact and an operation key disposed facing the protruding side thereof, and in contact therewith or spaced therefrom. The movable contact includes: an upper contact portion disposed directly under a key body; an outer fixed portion in the upper contact portion or more outward therefrom in the radial direction, and fixed more outward in the radial direction than the key body; and a non-contacting outer portion provided more outward in the radial direction than the upper contact portion, and disposed to face in a non-contacting state another contact so as to be able to contact another contact which is disposed on an outer side in the radial direction and contacted by the upper contact portion when pushed by the key body. The non-contacting outer portion has a bottom portion for a line contact or a surface contact with another contact.

Push-button switch member

A pushbutton switch member has a dome-shaped movable contact and an operation key facing and separated from a movable contact. Pushing the operation key toward the movable contact causes the movable contact to electrically connect at least two contacts on a substrate. The operation key is provided with: a key; a dome connected with an outer periphery of the key, and deformable by pushing of the key toward the substrate; and a foot connected with an outer periphery of the dome, and fixed on the substrate. The movable contact is provided with: an upper contact spaced apart from a site directly below the key, and which makes contact with a contact when the key is pushed in; and an outer fixing part disposed at the upper contact, or further outside thereof in the radial direction, and fixed outside of the key in the radial direction.

Pushbutton switch member

A pushbutton switch includes: a dome-shaped movable contact; and an operation key on a side of the movable contact. Pushing the operation key causes the movable contact to electrically connect at least two contacts. The operation key includes: a key body; a dome connected with an exterior of the key body and deformable by pushing the key body; a foot connected with an exterior of the dome; and a protrusion on top of the key body, protruding from the top, and deformable by compression. The movable contact includes: an upper contact in contact with a site below the key body and contacting the at least two contacts when the key body is pushed; and an outer fixing part at the upper contact in a radial direction and fixed outside of the key body of the operation key in the radial direction.

An image processing apparatus is disclosed. The image processing apparatus includes a thinning-out section generating thinned-out line data of thinned-out data constituted by a plurality of the thinned-out line data, the thinned-out data being obtained by thinning out wide-field image data with distortion captured using a wide-angle lens, and sequentially outputting the thinned-out line data at every predetermined timing, a switching section performing switching from an output of the wide-field image data to an output of the thinned-out line data in response to the predetermined timing, and a buffer temporarily storing the wide-field image data and the thinned-out data constituted by the plurality of thinned-out data outputted after the switching.

Image processing apparatus and image processing method

Provided is a specific configuration of an omnidirectional photographing device which includes one camera module equipped with a lens for directly taking a 360-degree annular image. More specifically, there is provided an omnidirectional photographing device configured to facilitate carrying. The omnidirectional photographing device includes: one camera module equipped with a lens capable of directly taking a 360-degree annular image; a main body for holding the camera module; and a display unit fixed to the main body, for displaying an image photographed by the camera module.

Omni directional photographing device

A photographic device equipped with a camera capable of photographing a 360-degree all-round image at a time includes a memory for recording the all-round image photographed by the camera, a control unit for specifying a predetermined range within the all-round image, extracting an image of the predetermined range from the memory to display the image, and for extracting and displaying the image within the all-round image recorded in the memory by changing a position of the predetermined range, thereby displaying the image as if the predetermined range moves in a circumferential direction, and a display unit for displaying at least the image of the predetermined range.
