AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for locating hidden indoor cameras suffer from low accuracy and precision due to interference from ambient light and camera traffic patterns. They are also inconvenient to operate, have difficulty identifying the model information of malicious devices, and cannot meet real-world needs.
By employing an optical flow watermarking method, a binary optical flow watermark is generated by controlling the flashing frequency of an LED matrix encoding. This is combined with a GoP construction method to analyze wireless traffic characteristics and utilize the adjustment of the light source angle to detect changes in the GoP data rate, thereby enabling the location inference and localization of hidden cameras.
It improves the accuracy of hidden camera location inference and positioning precision, enabling rapid and accurate identification and positioning of cameras in complex environments, reducing human interference and increasing the recognition rate.
