[0033] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] like Figure 1 - Figure 6 As shown, a moving target tracking device includes a protective box 1, the interior of the protective box 1 is slidably connected to a support plate 2, the interior of the protective box 1 is provided with a telescopic mechanism, the telescopic mechanism is used to control the support plate 2 to slide inside the protective box 1, the lower part of the support plate 2 is rotatably connected to a second connecting plate 14, the lower part of the second connecting plate 14 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 6, the lower part of the mounting plate 6 is provided with a camera body 5 for tracking a moving target, the upper part of the mounting plate 6 is fixedly installed with a rotation control motor 4 for controlling the rotation of the camera body 5, the upper part of the protective box 1 is provided with an opening and closing mechanism, the opening and closing mechanism is used to control the rotation of the sealing plate 3 after the camera body 5 is stored in the protective box 1 to put the protective box 1 in a sealed state;

[0036] The telescopic mechanism includes a threaded rod 10 disposed inside the protective box 1. The threaded rod 10 is rotatably connected to the protective box 1. The threaded rod 10 is threadedly connected to the support plate 2. Two sets of limit rods 9 are provided inside the protective box 1 to limit the support plate 2.

[0037] The support plate 2 is slidably connected to a fixed rod 11, and the fixed rod 11 is fixedly connected to the protective box 1. A slide plate 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the support plate 2, and the slide plate 8 is slidably connected to a slide groove 12, which is opened inside the protective box 1;

[0038] One side of the protective box 1 is rotatably connected to a second rotating shaft 16, which passes through the protective box 1 and extends to be fixedly connected to the threaded rod 10. A retraction and extension control motor 15 for controlling the rotation of the second rotating shaft 16 is fixedly installed on the side of the protective box 1 close to the second rotating shaft 16;

[0039] The lower part of the support plate 2 is rotatably connected to the third connecting plate 21, and the side of the third connecting plate 21 away from the support plate 2 is rotatably connected to the first connecting plate 13. The side of the first connecting plate 13 away from the third connecting plate 21 is rotatably connected to the second connecting plate 14;

[0040] The lower part of the support plate 2 is rotatably connected to the fifth connecting plate 24, the lower part of the fifth connecting plate 24 is fixedly connected to the spring 23, and the side of the spring 23 away from the fifth connecting plate 24 is rotatably connected to the fourth connecting plate 22, and the fourth connecting plate 22 is rotatably connected to the first connecting plate 13.

[0041] In this embodiment, when in use, when the moving target tracking device is maliciously damaged, the retraction and extension control motor 15 fixedly installed on one side of the protective box 1 will be started to rotate the second rotating shaft 16 set at its output end, and the second rotating shaft 16 will drive the fixedly connected threaded rod 10 to rotate.

The rotation control motor 4 fixedly installed on the upper part of the mounting plate 6 is convenient for angle change when tracking a moving target.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] like Figure 1 - Figure 6 As shown, the opening and closing mechanism includes a third rotating shaft 20 provided on the upper portion of the protective box 1.

The first rotating shaft 7 is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 18, and the first bevel gear 18 is meshed with the second bevel gear 19. The second bevel gear 19 is fixedly connected to the third rotating shaft 20.

[0046] The detection unit included in the camera body 5 continues to study the change of target scale based on the real-time target tracking algorithm that integrates color and spatiotemporal context information, and combines the optimal scale learning method with the algorithm for real-time tracking;

[0047] The specific steps of the real-time target tracking algorithm that integrates color and spatiotemporal context information are as follows:

[0048] Step 1: Use the adaptive dimensionality reduction color features and grayscale features of the target and its surrounding local context area to model the target appearance and obtain a context prior model;

[0049] Step 2: Based on the above, convert to the frequency domain to learn the spatial context model of the target and its surrounding background online, and introduce the conjugate complex number of the context prior model to improve the spatial context model;

[0050] Step 3: Calculate the confidence map, find the maximum response value, and predict the position of the target in the next frame.

The second bevel gear 19 rotates the fixedly connected third rotating shaft 20. The third rotating shaft 20 drives the fixedly connected sealing plate 3 to flip over, so that the protective box 1 can be placed in a closed state, thereby improving the protection effect of the camera body 5 when the camera body 5 is stored.

[0052] The TridentNet scale-variant object detection algorithm works as follows: Multiple branches in the Trident block use the same parameters but different scaling ratios to generate feature maps of specific scales. During training, each branch samples objects of a specific scale. Finally, the non-maximum suppression algorithm is used to calculate the detection results of the multiple branches.
