[0090] Exemplarily, the second preset number threshold may be G1. Specifically, when the number of rainFlags is greater than the second preset number threshold G1, it is determined that the weather mode of the target frame is a rainy day mode.

[0091] It should be noted that, when the number of rainFlags is less than or equal to the second preset number threshold G1, the weather mode of the target frame is determined to be sunny. It is understandable that when the weather mode of the target frame is determined to be sunny, step S130 does not need to be performed.
