The invention discloses a virtual reality panoramic video acquisition device, which comprises a camera A, a camera B, a camera C and a camera D, wherein the camera A, the camera B, the camera C and the camera D are connected with a 360 DEG panoramic host. A design of camera analog signal CVBS input-digital processing conversion-digital display screen connection is directly adopted, the image quality is greatly improved, the cost and the power consumption are reduced, the efficiency is improved, the product is simpler, and the quality and the stability are improved correspondingly. The four cameras are arranged on a base, a 360 DEG rotating disc is arranged on the base, a spherical cover is arranged outside the rotating disc, four 180 DEG rotating rods are arranged circumferentially on the spherical cover, and the cameras are arranged at the end parts of the four rotating rods. The virtual reality panoramic video acquisition device has the advantages that the structure is simple; the photographing angle is wide; an alarm is given in the case of an emergency; and remote monitoring can be carried out.
