Abstract
The present disclosure provides a control device for controlling an imaging device. The control device includes an operation unit configured to be operated by an external force; a detection unit configured to detect an operation state of the operation unit; a processor configured to execute a program to: perform a predetermined operation based on the operation state of the operation unit; and invalidate an execution of the predetermined operation performed by the processor based on the operation state of the operation unit when the imaging device is connected to an object satisfying a condition.
Claims18
A control device for controlling an imaging device, comprising:
- an operation unit configured to be operated by an external force;
- a detection unit configured to detect an operation state of the operation unit;
- and
- a processor configured to execute a program to:
- perform a predetermined operation based on the operation state of the operation unit;
- determine whether the imaging device is connected to an object satisfying a condition by determining whether the imaging device is mounted on a support mechanism configured to rotatably support the imaging device, wherein:
- the support mechanism is configured to operate in a first mode in which a rotation of the imaging device is validated and a second mode in which the rotation of the imaging device is invalidated;
- and
- the imaging device is determined to be connected to the object satisfying the condition when the imaging device is mounted on the support mechanism operating in the first mode;
- and
- invalidate an execution of the predetermined operation performed by the processor based on the operation state of the operation unit when the processor determines that the imaging device is connected to the object satisfying the condition.
A mobile object movable corresponding to a movable imaging system, wherein the movable imaging system has an imaging device including a control device and a support mechanism configured to rotatably support the imaging device, the control device including:
- an operation unit being operated by an external force;
- and
- a detection unit configured to detect an operation state of the operation unit;
- a processor configured to execute a program to:
- perform a predetermined operation based on the operation state of the operation unit;
- determine whether the imaging device is connected to an object satisfying a condition by determining whether the imaging device is mounted on a support mechanism configured to rotatably support the imaging device, wherein:
- the support mechanism is configured to operate in a first mode in which a rotation of the imaging device is validated and a second mode in which the rotation of the imaging device is invalidated;
- and
- the imaging device is determined to be connected to the object satisfying the condition when the imaging device is mounted on the support mechanism operating in the first mode;
- and
- invalidate an execution of the predetermined operation performed by the processor based on the operation state of the operation unit when the processor determines that the imaging device is connected to the object satisfying the condition.
A control method for controlling an imaging device:
- performing a predetermined operation based on an operation state of an operation unit;
- determining whether the imaging device is connected to an object satisfying a condition by determining whether the imaging device is mounted on a support mechanism configured to rotatably support the imaging device, wherein:
- the support mechanism is configured to operate in a first mode in which a rotation of the imaging device is validated and a second mode in which the rotation of the imaging device is invalidated;
- and
- the imaging device is determined to be connected to the object satisfying the condition when the imaging device is mounted on the support mechanism operating in the first mode;
- and
- invalidating an execution of the predetermined operation performed by a program based on the operation state of the operation unit when the imaging device is connected to the object satisfying the condition.
A control device for controlling an imaging device, comprising:
- an operation unit configured to be operated by an external force;
- a detection unit configured to detect an operation state of the operation unit;
- and
- a processor configured to execute a program to:
- perform a predetermined operation based on the operation state of the operation unit;
- invalidate an execution of the predetermined operation performed by the processor based on the operation state of the operation unit when the imaging device is connected to a mobile device;
- in response to the processor invalidating the predetermined operation, validate another predetermined operation executed by the processor based on the operation state of the operation unit;
- and
- in response to the mobile device having started flying, invalidate the predetermined another operation.
