Adapter for a mobile device

A camera clutch system with a camera plate configured to transiently mount to a camera and a coupled to the camera plate and configured to attach to a camera body or the camera plate to form an opening or loop sized to accept less than four fingers of a user to secure a camera mounted to the camera plate to the user is provided.

Camera clutch system

Tripods inclusive of a hub defining a center bore; a set of legs, each leg in the set of legs pivotably or retractably coupled to the hub; a center column comprising a first non-circular cross-section configured to translate within the center bore; and a head coupled to the center column configured to couple to a camera are disclosed.

Close-pack, high-aspect-ratio camera tripod

A vent mount and vent mounting system for a mobile device with upper and lower retention features and a pivot control with means for attaching a mobile device and positioning of any attached mobile device is provided.

Vehicle mount and mounting system for mobile devices

One variation of a mobile tripod includes a device case, including a first set of magnetic elements, and a tripod including: a mounting plate defining a leg receptacle and an aperture; a second set of magnetic elements arranged about the leg receptacle and configured to couple to the first set of magnetic elements to retain the mounting plate against the device case; a set of socket sections coupled to the mounting plate, arranged within the aperture, and defining a socket; a leg assembly configured to seat within the leg receptacle in a retracted position and deploy outward from the exterior face of the device case to mount to a base surface in a deployed position; a spherical end, coupled to the leg assembly, and configured to rotate within the socket, encapsulated by the set of socket sections, to pivot the leg assembly between the retracted position and the deployed position.

Mobile tripod mounting system

A mobile device mounting system includes a device case and a mount. The device case includes: an insert including a rectangular bore and defining a set of undercut sections about the rectangular bore; and a first set of magnetic elements arranged in a first pattern about the rectangular bore. The mount includes: a body; a polygonal boss extending from the body and configured to insert into the rectangular bore; a set of locking jaws arranged on the polygonal boss configured to transiently mate with the set of undercut sections to constrain the polygonal boss within the rectangular bore; and a second set of magnetic elements arranged in a second pattern about the polygonal boss and configured to transiently couple to the first set of magnetic elements to transiently retain the mount against the device case and to drive the set of locking jaws toward the set of undercut sections.

Mobile device mounting system

A tripod includes: a hub defining a set of leg mounts; a set of legs configured to telescopically extend from the hub and couple to the set of leg mounts; a center column including a spherical end; and a head pivotably coupled to the spherical end. The head further includes: a base section; a camera platform arranged over the base section; a set of flanges extending below the base section and extending around the spherical end; a hat arranged over the spherical end; a pivot control ring arranged about the base section, configured to drive the hat into the spherical end to fix the head on the spherical end responsive to rotation in a first direction about the base section, and configured to retract the hat from the spherical end to unlock the head from the spherical end responsive to rotation in a second direction about the base section.

Case for a mobile device

One variation of a device case includes a device case body: configured to accept and retain a mobile device; defining a strap receptacle; and including a first set of magnetic features arranged across a base surface of the strap receptacle. The device case further includes a strap: coupled to the device case body; configured to seat within the strap receptacle in a retracted position; configured to accept a finger of a user in a deployed position; and including a second set of magnetic features configured to transiently couple to the first set of magnetic features to drive the strap from the deployed position to the retracted position and to retain the strap within the strap receptacle in the retracted position.
