Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of video monitoring, and in particular relates to an intelligent outdoor camping monitoring camera and an application system thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of science and technology and people's pursuit of healthy life, outdoor camping is becoming more and more popular during holidays, especially when the weather is fine. People often take their children to get close to nature. Feeling the beauty of nature and listening to music outdoors is one of the daily lifestyles of many people now. However, there are also two concerns about outdoor camping. On the one hand, children may run around in the camping site during the day, and parents may not always follow them to accompany and take care of them. How to prevent children from getting lost or wading has become a major psychological burden for parents when camping outdoors; on the other hand, camping at night, because the camping tent can only simply serve as a shelter from wind and rain, how to prevent bad people or dangerous animals from invading has also become another psychological burden for people camping outdoors.

[0003] In addition, the existing surveillance cameras cannot meet the monitoring requirements of outdoor camping. In particular, the appearance of the existing surveillance cameras cannot adapt well to the camp environment, the size is large or cannot be on standby for a long time, the image is not real-time, and it is impossible to monitor children in real time.
