Abstract

A box (1) has a form which enables it to fit into a conventional camera using the space normally occupied by the film. When the camera mechanism is triggered a visual sensor (2) captures the picture which is then stored in a storage memory (4) which is removable. A transmission unit (7) enables stored data to be transferred and an external connection (6) is provided. The number of pictures stored and storage memory state are signaled

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour permettre de prendre des photos en numérique avec un appareil photo traditionnel utilisant normalement des pellicules photos. The present invention relates to a device for taking photos digitally with a traditional camera normally using photo film.

Le développement de l'internet, l'équipement en micro ordinateur et en imprimantes dans les foyers, augmente la possibilité de diffusion des images et des photographies. The development of the Internet, the equipment in microcomputer and in printers in the hearths, increases the possibility of diffusion of the images and photographs.

Pour cela on peut acheter un appareil numérique, mai cela coûte cher à l'achat pour un appareil de qualité.  For that one can buy a digital device, it may be expensive to buy for a quality device.

Soit on fait les photos avec un appareil traditionnel. On fait développer le film, pour ensuite le passer au scanner et ainsi le transformer en numérique. Cela, est long, coûte à chaque développement, et il faut développer systématiquement, pour savoir si les photos sont réussies, et peuvent être exploitées. Either we take the photos with a traditional camera. We have the film developed, then pass it to the scanner and thus transform it into digital. This is long, costs each development, and you have to develop systematically, to know if the photos are successful, and can be exploited.

Les appareils photos traditionnels apparaissent ainsi de plus en plus obsolètes, malgré des qualités de prise de vue, souvent très performante, en matière de luminosité, exposition, réglages que nombre d'appareils numériques non pas. Traditional cameras thus appear more and more obsolete, despite the qualities of shooting, often very efficient, in terms of brightness, exposure, settings that many digital cameras do not.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient en transformant un appareil photo traditionnel en un appareil numérique grâce à un module autonome. The device according to the invention overcomes this drawback by transforming a traditional camera into a digital device thanks to a stand-alone module.

Il comporte en effet selon une première caractéristique, un boîtier reprenant dans sa partie générale la forme d'un boîtier de pellicule permettant de le loger dans l'emplacement prévu à cet effet dans l'appareil photo. Cette partie se prolonge sur le coté par une zone de moindre épaisseur comportant un capteur visuel, permettant la prise de vue. In fact, according to a first characteristic, it comprises a box generally taking the form of a film box enabling it to be housed in the space provided for this purpose in the camera. This part extends on the side by a zone of lesser thickness comprising a visual sensor, allowing the shooting.

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation: - le boîtier peut avoir différentes formes. A titre d'exemple non limitatif pour remplacer une pellicule 24/36. Cette forme lui permet de s'adapter parfaitement à l'intérieur de l'appareil photo. According to particular embodiments: - the housing can have different shapes. By way of nonlimiting example to replace a 24/36 film. This shape allows it to fit perfectly inside the camera.

- le capteur visuel ( par exemple capteur ccd) peut être le plus fin possible en rapport avec l'avancée de la technique. - the visual sensor (for example ccd sensor) can be as fine as possible in relation to the progress of the technique.

- le boîtier peut comporter une mémoire de travail, une mémoire de stockage,interne ou amovible (par exemple de type mémoire carte à puce, mémoire cube). - The box can include a working memory, a storage memory, internal or removable (for example of the smart card memory type, cube memory).

- le boîtier peut comporter un dispositif signalant le nombre de prise de vues stockées. A titre d'exemple non limitatif un dispositif sonore. - The box can include a device signaling the number of stored shots. By way of nonlimiting example, a sound device.

- le boîtier peut comporter un dispositif signalant le fait que la mémoire de stockage est pleine. A titre d'exemple non limitatif un dispositif sonore. - le boîtier peut comporter un élément permettant le stockage d'énergie électrique pour le fonctionnement du capteur visuel, de la mémoire du module et du stockage des photos. - The box can include a device signaling the fact that the storage memory is full. By way of nonlimiting example, a sound device. - The box may include an element allowing the storage of electrical energy for the operation of the visual sensor, the module memory and the storage of photos.

- le boîtier peut être muni d'un film résistant et réutilisable simulant le film d'une pellicule, si l'appareil photo a besoin d' entraîner un film pour fonctionner et indiquer le nombre de prises de vues. - the case can be provided with a resistant and reusable film simulating the film of a film, if the camera needs to drag a film to operate and indicate the number of shots.

- le boîtier peut être muni d'un dispositif, simulant le passage des trous du film. - The box can be fitted with a device, simulating the passage of the holes in the film.

- le boîtier peut comporter une connexion permettant le branchement et le transfert des données, par exemple, sur un ordinateur. - The box can include a connection allowing the connection and the transfer of data, for example, on a computer.

- le boîtier peut comporter un dispositif de transmission à distance des données stockées. A titre d'exemple non limitatif dispositif infrarouge. Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention: La figure 1 représente, vu de l'avant, le dispositif. La figure 2 représente, vu du dessus, le dispositif. - The box can include a device for remote transmission of stored data. By way of nonlimiting example of an infrared device. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: Figure 1 shows, seen from the front, the device. Figure 2 shows, seen from above, the device.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un boîtier (1), dont la partie la plus épaisse correspond à la forme d'une pellicule photo. Le boîtier comporte un capteur visuel (2), une mémoire de travail (3), une mémoire de stockage (4), un élément de stockage d'énergie(5), une connexion externe (6), un élément de transmission à distance (7) L'utilisateur met le boîtier (1) dans l'appareil photo traditionnel. Le déclenchement de l'appareil, lors de la prise de vue, va provoquer l'ouverture du volet de l'appareil photo. Cela va permettre la capture instantanée de la prise de vue en numérique qui va être stockée dans la mémoire. With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a housing (1), the thickest part of which corresponds to the shape of a photo film. The housing includes a visual sensor (2), a working memory (3), a storage memory (4), an energy storage element (5), an external connection (6), a remote transmission element (7) The user places the housing (1) in the traditional camera. The triggering of the camera, during shooting, will cause the opening of the shutter of the camera. This will allow the instant capture of the digital shot which will be stored in the memory.

Dans une forme de réalisation non représentée, le boîtier (1) comporte un film résistant et réutilisable simulant le film d'une pellicule dans le cas ou l'appareil photo a besoin d'entraîner un film pour fonctionner et indiquer le nombre de prises de vues. In an embodiment not shown, the housing (1) comprises a resistant and reusable film simulating the film of a film in the case where the camera needs to carry a film to operate and indicate the number of shots views.

A titre d'exemple non limitatif, le boîtier aura des dimensions d'environ 8.5 cm pour la longueur, 4.3 cm pour la largeur, 3 cm pour l'épaisseur. By way of nonlimiting example, the case will have dimensions of approximately 8.5 cm for the length, 4.3 cm for the width, 3 cm for the thickness.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à l'utilisation de tout appareil photographique non numérique.The device according to the invention is particularly intended for the use of any non-digital camera.
