The invention belongs to the technical field of cross-domain unmanned systems, and particularly discloses a
buoyancy-driven rotary binocular camera device for an amphibious
robot, which comprises a base
assembly, a connecting
assembly and a camera
assembly, the base assembly comprises a base shaft, a fixing piece and a
rotation control piece. The connecting assembly comprises a connecting rod, a balance weight piece and a
buoyancy piece, the camera assembly comprises a first camera close to the balance weight piece and a second camera close to the
buoyancy piece, the first camera is provided with a first
water immersion switch, and the second camera assembly is provided with a second
water immersion switch. Through an ingenious buoyancy driving and
water immersion switch linkage mechanism, full-automatic and self-
adaptive switching of the working state of the binocular camera device is realized. The whole switching process does not need motor driving, the structure is simple and reliable, energy is saved, the amphibious
robot adapts to the severe environment, and the environment sensing autonomy of the amphibious
robot and the environment adaptability of the whole
system are remarkably improved.
