    Abstract: A camera smart frame is configured to enclose and communicatively couple to a camera. The camera smart frame includes one or more sets of input mechanisms, such as buttons. Each input mechanism can be programmed by a user to perform a selected camera function or configure a camera based on a selected camera configuration. A user can select, via a camera interface, a function or configuration, a smart frame input mechanism, and can associate the selected input mechanism and the selected function or configuration. When the smart frame is subsequently coupled to the camera, and a user interacts with the selected input mechanism, a camera controller identifies the function or configuration associated with the selected input mechanism and configures the camera accordingly.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for image signal processing. For example, method may include determining a sequence of orientation estimates based on sensor data from one or more motion sensors. The method may include receiving an image from the image sensor. The method may include filtering the sensor data with a pass band matching an operation bandwidth to the sequence of orientation estimates to obtain filtered data. The method may include invoking an electronic image stabilization module to correct the image based on the filtered data to obtain a stabilized image. The method may include storing, displaying, or transmitting an output image based on the stabilized image.

    Abstract: Ultrasonic ranging state management for a UAV is described. A transducer transmits an ultrasonic signal and receives an ultrasonic response thereto using a gain value. A noise floor estimation mechanism determines a noise floor estimate. A state mechanism sets an ultrasonic ranging state used by the transducer to a first ultrasonic ranging state. The transducer transmits an ultrasonic signal and responsively receive an ultrasonic response to the ultrasonic signal using a gain value according to the noise floor estimate. The state mechanism processes the ultrasonic response to determine whether to determine a new noise floor estimate, adjust the gain value used by the transducer, or change the ultrasonic ranging state of the UAV to a second ultrasonic ranging state. The configurations of the first and second ultrasonic ranging states differ as to, for example, power and gain levels used by the transducer to receive ultrasonic responses.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for image signal processing. For example, methods may include determining a sequence of orientation estimates based on sensor data from one or more motion sensors; based on the sequence of orientation estimates, invoking a mechanical stabilization system to reject motions of an image sensor occurring within a first operating bandwidth with an upper cutoff frequency; receiving an image from the image sensor; based on the sequence of orientation estimates, invoking an electronic image stabilization module to correct the image for rotations of the image sensor occurring within a second operating bandwidth with a lower cutoff frequency to obtain a stabilized image, wherein the lower cutoff frequency is greater than the upper cutoff frequency; and storing, displaying, or transmitting an output image based on the stabilized image.
