US Patent 11012601 Dual camera module systems

A dual camera module system includes a housing and a pair of camera modules (e.g., digital cameras) that are aligned with fields of view that overlap below the housing. The camera modules are mounted to a bench within the housing. The dual camera module system is configured for mounting above areas such as retail establishments or other materials handling facilities. The housing is formed from one or more sections of plastic or like materials, and includes inlets and outlets that enable air to flow past the camera modules and other components within the housing, and to maintain such components at a desired temperature. Images captured by the imaging devices of the camera module may be utilized for any purpose.
