Abstract
An image apparatus () includes an apparatus frame (), a capturing system (), a control feature, an inertial sensor assembly (), and a control system (). The control feature influences the image () captured by the capturing system (). The inertial sensor assembly senses motion of the image apparatus. The control system adjusts the control feature based on the sensed motion from the sensor assembly. Thus, the control feature can be easily controlled by the controlled movement of the image apparatus. For example, the inertial sensor assembly can include one or more angular inertial sensors; one or more gyroscopes; and/or one or more accelerometers.
