[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the implementation methods of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the implementation methods of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the implementation methods of this application. Obviously, the described implementation methods are part of the implementation methods of this application, not all of the implementation methods. Based on the implementation methods in this application, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present application for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0024] The following describes a motion tracking binocular camera and a base structure based on a six-axis gyroscope according to an embodiment of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 According to the embodiment of the present application, the motion tracking binocular camera includes: a binocular camera body 1 and a bottom support component 2.

[0026] Among them, the bottom support component 2 is used to support the binocular camera body 1. The binocular camera body 1 can be folded to maintain the traditional placement method, or its shape can be changed to hold the bottom support component 2 to drive the binocular camera body 1 to move, which is convenient for movement and shooting.

[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The bottom support assembly 2 includes an upper rod 21, a lower grip rod 22, a connecting block 23, a damping shaft 24, a damping belt 25 and a counterweight 29. The top of the upper rod 21 is mounted on the bottom of the binocular camera body 1, the top of the connecting block 23 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the upper rod 21 through the damping shaft 24, and the connecting block 23 and the lower section of the upper rod 21 are both movably inserted into the upper section shell of the lower grip rod 22. The damping belt 25 is fixedly arranged outside the connecting block 23, and when the damping belt 25 is located inside the upper section shell of the lower grip rod 22, it is pressed and contacted with the inner wall thereof, and the counterweight 29 is arranged in the lower section shell inside the lower grip rod 22.

[0028] The working principle of the motion tracking binocular camera is as follows: when placed, the lower end of the upper rod 21 is pulled out from the upper shell of the lower grip rod 22, so that the top of the connecting block 23 is exposed outside the lower grip rod 22. The upper rod 21 is rotated to drive the binocular camera body 1 to adjust to an appropriate angle, so that the lower grip rod 22 is in a horizontal state. The lower grip rod 22 can be placed above the platform to appropriately adjust the shooting angle of the binocular camera body 1. When a person needs to pick up the binocular camera body 1 for mobile shooting, the lower section of the upper rod 21 and the connecting block 23 are inserted into the upper shell inside the lower grip rod 22. The damping belt 25 is located inside the lower grip rod 22 to stabilize the connecting block 23 so that it is not easy to slide out of the lower grip rod 22. At this time, the person can hold the lower grip rod 22 for mobile shooting. The motion tracking binocular camera can change the shape of the bottom support structure, so that the binocular camera can be better used for shooting in both the placed shape and the mobile shape.

[0029] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5The motion tracking binocular camera also includes a wire storage assembly 3, which includes an automatic wire reel 31, an elastic wire 32 and an elastic loop 33. The automatic wire reel 31 is installed inside the lower shell of the lower grip 22 to reel up the elastic wire 32, the elastic loop 33 is arranged at the tail end of the elastic wire 32, and a wire threading hole is arranged at the bottom of the lower grip 22 for the elastic wire 32 to pass through.

[0030] When holding and using, the elastic loop 33 can be pulled to make the elastic rope 32 take out a certain amount from the automatic reel 31 and become longer, and the elastic loop 33 can be put on the wrist, and then the lower grip 22 can be held. Even if the grip is slipped out of the hand during mobile shooting, the setting of the elastic loop 33 and the elastic rope 32 can prevent the binocular camera body 1 from falling to the ground, which has a further protective effect on the binocular camera body 1 when shooting while moving.

[0031] Specifically, the cord storage assembly 3 further includes an elastic tail block 34, which is arranged at the end of the elastic loop 33, and the elastic loop 33 is movable through the rope threading hole at the bottom of the lower grip 22. When the elastic loop 33 is pulled, the elastic cord 32 and the elastic loop 33 are both entered into the lower grip 22 and stored through the cooperation of the automatic reel 31, and the elastic tail block 34 remains outside the rope threading hole.

[0032] Further, the bottom of the lower grip bar 22 is provided with a receiving groove 221 for receiving the elastic tail block 34. The receiving groove 221 is used to receive the elastic tail block 34, so that the tail end of the lower grip bar 22 is more beautiful, and the elastic tail block 34 does not protrude outside the bottom end of the lower grip bar 22.

[0033] In the specific configuration, the counterweight block 29 is divided into two blocks, and a gap is left between the two counterweight blocks 29 for the elastic band 33 to pass through and receive the elastic band 33. The top and bottom of the two counterweight blocks 29 near one side are both arc chamfered. The arc structure at the end of the counterweight block 29 is to reduce the friction between the counterweight block 29 and the elastic band 32.

[0034] Specifically, the bottom support assembly 2 also includes a positioning column 28, and a plurality of positioning columns 28 are located outside the automatic wire reel 31 to limit the automatic wire reel 31, and the positioning columns 28 are fixed to the lower grip rod 22. The positioning column 28 is used to limit the automatic wire reel 31. A slide groove 27 is provided on the inner wall of the upper shell of the lower grip rod 22, and limiting sliders 26 that slide with the slide groove 27 are provided on both sides of the bottom end of the connecting block 23. A groove 231 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting block 23, and the damping belt 25 is fixedly sleeved outside the groove 231. The setting of the limiting slider 26 and the slide groove 27 is to enhance the stability of the upper rod 21 when it is pulled, and the top of the slide groove 27 is blocked, so that the connecting block 23 will not be pulled out from the inside of the lower grip rod 22.
