[0011] Alternatively, the image processing chip, the artificial intelligence chip, and the driver chip are respectively mounted on three of the circuit boards, and the three circuit boards are connected to each other via the connecting lines.
[0012] In one embodiment, the camera assembly further includes a first chip board, a second chip board, and a third chip board that are connected in communication, wherein the image processing chip is mounted on the first chip board, the artificial intelligence chip is mounted on the second chip board, and the driver chip is mounted on the third chip board;
[0013] The support frame includes a top plate and a bottom plate, the second chip board is mounted on the top plate, and the first chip board is mounted on the bottom plate;

[0016] In one embodiment, the third chip board is equipped with a second Hall sensor, and the three-phase lines of the yaw motor are connected to the second Hall sensor.

[0018] In one embodiment, the pitch mount includes at least one support arm, the pitch motor is connected to one of the support arms, and the protective housing is connected to the output end of the pitch motor on the side closest to the pitch motor.
[0019] In one embodiment, one of the support arms is equipped with a pitch bearing, and the protective shell is equipped with a pitch center shaft, which is inserted into the inner ring of the pitch bearing and coaxially arranged with the inner ring of the pitch bearing.
[0020] In one embodiment, the base is equipped with a yaw bearing, and a yaw center shaft is installed at the bottom of the yaw base. The yaw center shaft is inserted into the inner ring of the yaw bearing and is coaxially arranged with the inner ring of the yaw bearing.

[0022] According to the technical solution of this utility model, the camera device includes a support assembly and a camera assembly. The support assembly includes a base, a yaw mount, a yaw motor, a pitch mount, and a pitch motor. The yaw mount is rotatably mounted on the top of the base via the yaw motor. The pitch mount is mounted at the end of the yaw mount away from the base, and the pitch motor is mounted on the pitch mount. The camera assembly includes a protective shell, a support frame, an image processing chip, an artificial intelligence chip, a driver chip, and a first lens and a second lens mounted on the support frame. The support frame is installed inside the protective shell, and the protective shell is connected to the output end of the pitch motor. The first lens is electrically connected to the image processing chip, the second lens is electrically connected to the artificial intelligence chip, and the driver chip is communicatively connected to the yaw motor and the pitch motor. With this setup, when the camera device is operational, it can acquire image information of faces or gestures through the second lens. This information is then processed by the AI chip, converting it into angular offsets at the outputs of the yaw and pitch motors. These angular offsets are output to the drive chip, which controls the rotation of the yaw and pitch motors. This ensures that the first lens is facing the face in real-time, capturing the image of the subject. The first lens then captures the image of the subject and sends it to the image processing chip for processing, improving the output image quality. In this way, the image processing chip and the AI chip can process the image information captured by the second and first lenses respectively, working in parallel to avoid interference between the two types of image information. This allows the image processing chip to process the image information input from the second lens promptly and output the angular offsets in a timely manner, enabling the drive chip to respond quickly and control the movement of the yaw and pitch motors. Simultaneously, this process does not consume the computing power of the image processing chip, allowing it to be fully utilized for processing the image information captured by the first lens, thus ensuring the quality of the output image.

[0041] Currently, intelligent gimbals, as camera devices capable of automatic tracking and recognition, are relatively mature in technology. They primarily rely on visual image recognition, using cameras to capture images, which are then analyzed by a chip to control the movement of the gimbal in order to track or lock onto targets. However, current intelligent gimbals suffer from problems such as high latency in automatic tracking and unstable image quality.
[0042] According to the applicant's research, as users' requirements for image clarity, resolution, and gesture or facial recognition accuracy gradually increase, current smart PTZs are limited by chip computing power and algorithm complexity. The complete link from target recognition to PTZ response usually has a high latency. Furthermore, because the chip's computing power is difficult to simultaneously meet the two processes of object recognition and image processing, the output quality of the image is difficult to guarantee.
[0043] Therefore, this utility model proposes a camera device to solve the above problems.
[0044] Please see Figures 1 to 5In one embodiment of this utility model, the camera device 100 includes a support assembly 1, a camera assembly 2, and a third chip board 3. The support assembly 1 includes a base 11, a yaw mount 12, a yaw motor 13, a pitch mount 14, and a pitch motor 15. The yaw mount 12 is rotatably mounted on the top of the base 11 via the yaw motor 13. The pitch mount 14 is mounted at the end of the yaw mount 12 away from the base 11, and the pitch motor 15 is mounted on the pitch mount 14. The camera assembly 2 includes a protective shell 21, a support frame 22, an image processing chip, an artificial intelligence chip, a driver chip, and a first lens 26 and a second lens 27 mounted on the support frame 22. The support frame 22 is installed inside the protective shell 21. The protective shell 21 is connected to the output end of the pitch motor 15. The first lens 26 is electrically connected to the image processing chip, the second lens 27 is electrically connected to the artificial intelligence chip, and the driver chip is communicatively connected to the yaw motor 13 and the pitch motor 15.
[0045] Specifically, the image processing chip receives images captured by the first lens 26, performs preliminary processing (such as noise reduction and exposure adjustment), and then outputs the processed image to an external device. The artificial intelligence chip, equipped with a neural network algorithm, receives image information captured by the second lens 27. When the user moves or makes a specific gesture, the AI chip processes this image information, calculates the user's next position using the neural network algorithm, and converts this position information into angular offsets for the yaw motor 13 and pitch motor 15. Ultimately, the drive chip controls the rotation of the yaw motor 13 and pitch motor 15 based on these angular offsets, thereby achieving real-time tracking and coordinating the user's movement with the rotation of the yaw mount 12 and the camera assembly 2. Both the yaw motor 13 and pitch motor 15 employ either a conventional brushless motor or a disc motor. Specifically, during installation, the stator of the yaw motor 13 is fixedly mounted on the base 11, and its rotor is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the yaw mount 12; the stator of the pitch motor 15 is fixedly mounted on the inside of the pitch mount 14, and its rotor is fixedly mounted on the side of the protective shell 21 facing the stator.
[0046] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, the artificial intelligence chip and the image processing chip can respectively process the image information captured by the second lens 27 and the first lens 26. The two chip boards work in parallel without interfering with each other, thereby avoiding the situation where the two types of image information interfere with each other. This allows the artificial intelligence chip to process the image information input by the second lens 27 in a timely manner and output the angle offset to the drive chip in a timely manner, thereby enabling the drive chip to respond quickly and control the actions of the yaw motor 13 and the pitch motor 15. At the same time, this process does not occupy the computing power of the image processing chip, so that the computing power in the image processing chip can be fully used to process the image information captured by the first lens 26, thereby ensuring the quality of the output image.
[0047] In one embodiment of this utility model, the camera assembly 2 further includes a circuit board and a connecting line 23, and the number of circuit boards is at least one. The image processing chip, the artificial intelligence chip, and the driver chip are mounted on the same circuit board; or, two of the image processing chip, the artificial intelligence chip, and the driver chip are mounted on the same circuit board, and the remaining one is mounted on another circuit board, with the two circuit boards connected by the connecting line 23; or, the image processing chip, the artificial intelligence chip, and the driver chip are each mounted on three different circuit boards, with the three circuit boards connected by the connecting line 23. That is to say, there are multiple mounting schemes for the image processing chip, the artificial intelligence chip, and the driver chip. When there is one circuit board, all three chips are mounted on that circuit board; when there are two circuit boards, one circuit board is used to mount two chips (such as simultaneously mounting the artificial intelligence chip and the driver chip); when there are three circuit boards, each chip is independently mounted on one of the circuit boards. It should be noted that, in order to reduce the impact of the artificial intelligence chip's operation on the image processing chip, when using a mounting scheme with two or more circuit boards, the artificial intelligence chip and the image processing chip should be mounted on separate boards. Connecting the circuit boards with connecting wire 23 can improve the data transmission speed and help reduce the response time of the yaw motor 13 and the pitch motor 15.
[0048] In one embodiment of this utility model, the camera assembly 2 further includes a first chip board 24, a second chip board 25, and a third chip board 3 connected in communication. An image processing chip is mounted on the first chip board 24, an artificial intelligence chip is mounted on the second chip board 25, and a driving chip is mounted on the third chip board 3. The support frame 22 includes a top plate 221 and a bottom plate 222. The second chip board 25 is mounted on the top plate 221, and the first chip board 24 is mounted on the bottom plate 222. The third chip board 3 is mounted on the base 11. This arrangement, with the second chip board 25 and the first chip board 24 spaced apart, mitigates the risk of high-frequency noise coupling to the image signal path via parasitic capacitance, thus ensuring the quality of the original image data. Furthermore, mounting the third chip board 3 on the base 11 fully utilizes the space between the base 11 and the yaw seat 12, avoiding the need to mount all three chip boards on the support frame 22, which helps reduce the weight borne by the protective shell 21. It should also be noted that in this embodiment, the first chip board 24, the second chip board 25 and the third chip board 3 all use the circuit board in the above embodiment as the substrate to carry each chip.
[0049] In one embodiment of this utility model, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5The camera device 100 also includes a first Hall sensor 4, which is mounted on the pitch mount 14. The three-phase wires of the pitch motor 15 are connected to the first Hall sensor 4, and the first Hall sensor 4 is communicatively connected to the third chip board 3. The first Hall sensor 4 can detect the rotation angle of the pitch motor 15, enabling the third chip board 3 to accurately obtain the current angle of the protective shell 21, thus improving the control accuracy of the third chip board 3 over the rotation process of the protective shell 21. Simultaneously, mounting the first Hall sensor 4 in the support arm 141 of the pitch mount 14 optimizes the internal structural layout of the camera device 100, which is beneficial for controlling the overall size of the camera device 100. Furthermore, the three-phase wires of the pitch motor 15 are directly connected to the first Hall sensor 4, and then the first Hall sensor 4 is directly connected to the third chip board 3, achieving a shorter wiring effect. This avoids the situation where both the pitch motor 15 and the first Hall sensor 4 and the pitch motor 15 and the third chip board 3 are connected using wire harnesses, thus saving wire harness length and helping to maintain neat wiring.
[0050] In one embodiment of this utility model, a second Hall sensor is installed on the third chip board 3, and the three-phase lines of the yaw motor 13 are connected to the second Hall sensor. This configuration enables the second Hall sensor to detect the rotation angle of the servo motor in real time, allowing the third chip board 3 to accurately obtain the current angle of the yaw mount 12, thereby improving the control accuracy of the third chip board 3 over the rotation process of the yaw mount 12.
[0051] In one embodiment of this utility model, the third chip board 3 is equipped with a power supply socket 31, and the base 11 has a socket 111 that matches the shape of the power supply socket 31. The power supply socket 31 and the socket 111 are correspondingly arranged. The third chip board 3 is connected to the first chip board 24, the second chip board 25, the first Hall sensor 4, the first lens 26, and the second lens 27 via a wiring harness to supply power to the electrical components in the camera device 100. This arrangement facilitates power supply to the camera device 100, and the power supply socket 31 can also serve as a data interface for exporting image data.
[0052] In one embodiment of this utility model, the pitch mount 14 includes at least one support arm 141, the pitch motor 15 is connected to one of the support arms 141, and the protective shell 21 is connected to the output end of the pitch motor 15 on the side near the pitch motor 15. For a specific embodiment, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 5The pitch mount 14 includes two spaced-apart support arms 141. A pitch motor 15 is connected to one of the support arms 141. A protective shell 21 is installed between the two support arms 141, with the side of the protective shell 21 closest to the pitch motor 15 connected to the output end of the pitch motor 15, and the side of the protective shell 21 furthest from the pitch motor 15 hinged to the other support arm 141. The two support arms 141 are symmetrically arranged. A rotating shaft is installed at the hinge end of the protective shell 21, and a bearing is correspondingly installed in the support wall at the hinge end, allowing the rotating shaft to be inserted into the bearing to complete the hinge. This allows both sides of the protective shell 21 to be simultaneously supported by the two support arms 141, resulting in a more balanced force distribution on the protective shell 21, a simple structure, and ease of maintenance.
[0053] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 7 In one embodiment of this utility model, a pitch bearing 16 is mounted on one support arm 141, and a pitch center shaft 17 is mounted on the protective shell 21. The pitch center shaft 17 is inserted into the inner ring of the pitch bearing 16 and is coaxially arranged with the inner ring of the pitch bearing 16. The outer ring of the pitch bearing 16 is fixed to the inner side of the stator of the pitch motor 15. After the pitch center shaft 17 passes through the pitch bearing 16, its end away from the protective shell 21 is locked by a threaded component. The outer diameter of the threaded component is larger than the inner diameter of the inner ring of the pitch bearing 16, thereby preventing the pitch center shaft 17 from sliding left and right during rotation. Through this arrangement, both sides of the protective shell 21 are hinged to the support wall, improving the concentricity of the rotation of both sides of the protective shell 21. In addition, by setting the cooperation between the shaft and the bearing, the rotation of the protective shell 21 is smoother, which helps to reduce the power output of the pitch motor 15 driving the protective shell 21 to rotate.
[0054] Please see Figure 6 In one embodiment of this utility model, a yaw bearing 18 is mounted on the base 11, and a yaw center shaft 19 is mounted on the bottom of the yaw seat 12. The yaw center shaft 19 is inserted into the inner ring of the yaw bearing 18 and is coaxially arranged with the inner ring of the yaw bearing 18. The outer ring of the yaw bearing 18 is fixed to the inner side of the stator of the yaw motor 13. After the yaw center shaft 19 passes through the yaw bearing 18, its end near the bottom surface of the base 11 is locked by a threaded component, thereby preventing the yaw center shaft 19 from sliding vertically during rotation. By setting the cooperation between the yaw bearing 18 and the yaw center shaft 19, the yaw seat 12 can only rotate around the axis of the yaw center shaft 19 during rotation, thereby improving the rotational accuracy of the yaw seat 12.
[0055] In one embodiment of this utility model, the camera assembly 2 further includes a front protective cover. The protective shell 21 has an opening, with the first lens 26 and the second lens 27 facing the opening. The front protective cover covers the opening, and the portions of the front protective cover corresponding to the first lens 26 and the second lens 27 are made of transparent material. The front protective cover is used to seal the inner cavity of the protective shell 21. The sealed design prevents contaminants such as dust, water stains, and insect remains from entering the inner cavity, avoiding obstruction or corrosion of the lens surface. To avoid affecting the image acquisition function of the first lens 26 and the second lens 27, the areas in the front protective cover corresponding to the first lens 26 and the second lens 27 are set as transparent areas. The transparent material can be transparent glass or acrylic with a light transmittance of ≥92%. The non-transparent portions of the front protective cover can be coated with an ink layer or use a light-shielding material to suppress stray light reflection and glare interference, and improve the signal-to-noise ratio in low-light environments.
[0056] In one embodiment of this invention, both the yaw mount 12 and the pitch mount 14 have cavities for cables to pass through. These cavities provide a dedicated channel for the cables, preventing them from becoming entangled or squeezed by the mechanical structure when the equipment rotates (e.g., yaw ±180°, pitch ±90°). Simultaneously, the cables can directly connect to internal circuits through the cavities in a straight line or with a large arc, which helps to shorten wiring distances and thus reduce signal attenuation and delay.
[0057] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
