[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0031] In the description of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, " / " means "or", for example, A / B can mean A or B. "And / or" in this article is merely a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, "at least one" means one or more, and "plurality" means two or more. The words "first", "second", etc. do not limit the quantity and execution order, and the words "first", "second", etc. do not limit them to be different.

[0032] It should be noted that in the present disclosure, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described in the present disclosure as "exemplary" or "for example" should not be interpreted as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of "exemplary" or "for example" should not be interpreted as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a concrete way.

[0033] With the development of the times, the application scenarios of camera devices are increasing. Multiple cameras in the same scene are usually connected to the same local area network, the same wide area network or the same cloud platform through wired or wireless means, and do not communicate directly, which leads to huge resource and information barriers between multiple cameras. The lack of communication between multiple cameras in the same scene may cause the load of the camera to be too high, thereby affecting the task execution efficiency of the camera.

[0034] In order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the present disclosure provides a resource sharing method, in which the first camera determines the target camera in at least one second camera based on the resources required for the acquired target task and the resource information corresponding to each of at least one second camera, and instructs the target camera to perform the target task based on the shooting information of the first camera. In this way, through the communication between the first camera and at least one second camera, the first camera can select the target camera to perform the target task, which helps to avoid the overload of the first camera, thereby ensuring the task execution efficiency of the first camera.

[0035] The resource sharing method provided by the present disclosure can be applied to Figure 1 In the shooting system shown. Figure 1 FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of the architecture of a shooting system provided by the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the shooting system includes a plurality of shooting devices, including a first shooting device 11 that receives a target task, and at least one second shooting device 12 other than the first shooting device 11. The first shooting device 11 and the at least one second shooting device 12 are connected by wire or wirelessly.

[0036] In a possible implementation, the resource sharing method disclosed in the present invention can be applied to home security scenarios, community security scenarios, or factory security scenarios, and the present disclosure does not impose specific restrictions on specific application scenarios.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first photographing device 11 and the second photographing device 12 are both photographing devices having wireless communication functions.

[0038] In some embodiments, the first camera 11 and the at least one second camera 12 may establish storage space based on a trans-flash card (TF), a hard disk, or a cloud space.

[0039] For example, assuming that the first camera 11 and at least one second camera 12 both establish storage space through TF cards, and one camera can simultaneously receive video information sent by at most X cameras. At this time, the number of TF cards required can be determined based on the following formula:

[0040]

[0041] In the formula, F is used to indicate the number of TF cards required, M is used to indicate the duration of video that each TF card can store, and T is used to indicate the duration of video that each shooting device needs to store.

[0042] In some embodiments, the second camera 12 may be a camera connected to the same local area network as the first camera 11, or may be a camera connected to the same switch local area network as the first camera, and the present disclosure does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0043] Exemplarily, in the same local area network, the first camera 11 and at least one second camera 12 can discover each other and exchange information through a distributed soft bus technology (such as the KOP protocol).

[0044] In some embodiments, the first camera 11 and the second camera can be a camera with wireless transceiver function, which can be deployed on land, including indoors or outdoors, handheld, wearable or vehicle-mounted; can also be deployed on the water surface (such as ships, etc.); can also be deployed in the air (for example, on airplanes, balloons and satellites, etc.). The camera can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transceiver function and camera function, a camera end in industrial control, a camera in self-driving, a camera in remote medical, a camera in smart grid, a camera in transportation safety, a camera in smart city, a camera in smart home, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the application scenarios.

[0045] It should be noted that Figure 1 This is just an exemplary framework diagram. Figure 1The number of devices included in the Figure 1 In addition to the devices shown, the shooting system may also include other devices, such as a server.

[0046] For example, see Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the architecture of another shooting system provided by the present disclosure. Figure 2 As shown, the shooting system may include a server 13 in addition to the first shooting device 11 and the at least one second shooting device 12. The first shooting device 11 and the at least one second shooting device 12, as well as the first shooting device 11 and the server 13, and the at least one second shooting device 12 and the server 13 may be connected in a wired or wireless manner.

[0047] In some embodiments, server 13 can be an independent server, a server cluster or a distributed system composed of multiple servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content distribution networks, and big data service networks.

[0048] The present disclosure provides a resource sharing method, which is applied to Figure 1 The first shooting device 11. Figure 3 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0049] S101: Acquire resources required for a target task of a first photographing device.

[0050] In some embodiments, the target task includes a storage task or a computing task. The storage task may be storing video information within a certain period of time, storing an image, or storing audio information within a certain period of time, and the present disclosure does not specifically limit this. The computing task may be an artificial intelligence (AI) function, a data processing task, a target detection and recognition task, or a motion detection task, and the present disclosure does not specifically limit this.

[0051] In some embodiments, the resources required for the target task include at least one of the following: neural network processor computing power resources, central processing unit computing power resources, memory resources, storage resources, and network bandwidth resources required for the target task.

[0052] In some embodiments, upon receiving the target task, the first photographing device acquires resources required for the target task.

[0053] It is understandable that after the first camera receives the target task, if the first camera directly executes the target task, the idle resources of the first camera may not meet the resources required for the target task, resulting in the first camera missing key video frames or key audio frames when executing the target task, thereby affecting the processing effect of the target task. Therefore, the first camera needs to obtain the resources required for the target task to determine whether other cameras can assist in executing the target task. In this way, it is helpful for the first camera to select other cameras to execute the target task when the idle resources of the first camera cannot meet the resources required for the target task, thereby avoiding affecting the processing effect of the target task due to insufficient idle resources of the first camera.

[0054] S102: Obtain resource information corresponding to at least one second shooting device.

[0055] Among them, the resource information includes at least one of the following: neural network processor computing power resource occupancy rate, central processing unit network computing power resource occupancy rate, memory resource occupancy rate, storage resource occupancy rate and network bandwidth resource occupancy rate.

[0056] In some embodiments, upon receiving the target task, the first shooting device obtains resource information corresponding to at least one second shooting device.

[0057] It is understandable that the idle resources of the first camera may not necessarily meet the resources required for the target task. Therefore, the first camera needs to obtain the resource information corresponding to at least one second camera, so that when the idle resources of the first camera cannot meet the resources required for the target task, the second camera with a lower resource occupancy rate can be selected to perform the target task.

[0058] S103: Determine a target shooting device based on resources required for the target task and resource information corresponding to at least one second shooting device.

[0059] In some embodiments, the target camera is a second camera selected to perform the target task.

[0060] It is understandable that if the idle resources of the first camera cannot meet the resources required for the target task, the first camera will randomly delegate the target task to a second camera, and the idle resources of the second camera to which the target task is delegated may not necessarily meet the resources required for the target task. Therefore, the first camera needs to determine the target camera from at least one second camera based on the resources required for the target task and the resource information corresponding to each of the at least one second camera.

[0061] In this way, it is helpful to select a shooting device whose idle resources can meet the target resources to perform the target task, thereby helping to ensure the processing effect of the target task.

[0062] S104: Share the shooting information of the first shooting device with the target shooting device, and send a collaborative work instruction to the target shooting device.

[0063] The collaborative work instruction is used to instruct the target shooting device to perform the target task based on the shooting information of the first shooting device. The shooting information includes video information, image information or audio information acquired by the shooting device.

[0064] For example, assuming that the target task is a storage task, specifically, storing the video information acquired by the first camera within 30 minutes from now on. Within 30 minutes from now on, the first camera shares the video information acquired by the first camera with the target camera, and sends a collaborative work instruction to the target camera to instruct the target camera to store the video information acquired by the first camera within 30 minutes from now on.

[0065] In another exemplary embodiment, assuming that the target task is a calculation task, specifically, calculating the number of teenagers appearing in the video information acquired by the first camera within 30 minutes from now. Within 30 minutes from now, the first camera shares the video information acquired by the first camera with the target camera, and sends a collaborative work instruction to the target camera, so that the target camera calculates the number of teenagers appearing in the next 30 minutes based on the video information acquired by the first camera in the next 30 minutes.

[0066] In the disclosed embodiment, the first camera determines the target camera in at least one second camera based on the acquired resources required for the target task and the resource information corresponding to each of the at least one second camera, and instructs the target camera to perform the target task based on the shooting information of the first camera. In this way, through the communication between the first camera and the at least one second camera, the first camera can select the target camera to perform the target task, which helps to avoid excessive load on the first camera, thereby ensuring the task execution efficiency of the first camera.

[0067] In one possible implementation, see Figure 4 As shown, the above S102 may include the following steps:

[0068] a1. Send a first message to the second shooting device.

[0069] In some embodiments, the first message is used to request the second camera to send a second message to the first camera. The second message includes a device identifier of the second camera and resource information of the second camera.

[0070] In some embodiments, after receiving the target task, the first photographing device sends a first message to the second photographing device to request the second photographing device to send a second message including the resource information of the second photographing device.

[0071] a2. Receive a second message sent by a second shooting device.

[0072] a3. Obtain resource information corresponding to the second shooting device from the second message.

[0073] In some embodiments, after receiving the second message sent by the second camera, the first camera parses the second message to obtain resource information corresponding to the second camera.

[0074] In this way, it is helpful for the first shooting device to determine whether the second shooting device can be used to perform the target task according to the resource information corresponding to the second shooting device.

[0075] In another possible implementation, see Figure 5 As shown, the above S102 may also include the following steps:

[0076] b1. Receive a second message periodically sent by a second shooting device.

[0077] In some embodiments, the second message is periodically sent by the second shooting device to the first shooting device.

[0078] For example, the second shooting device sends the second message to the first shooting device once every 1 minute.

[0079] b2. Obtain resource information corresponding to the second shooting device from the second message.

[0080] In some embodiments, after receiving the second message periodically sent by the second camera, the first camera parses the second message to obtain resource information corresponding to the second camera.

[0081] In this way, it helps the first shooting device to periodically understand the resource occupancy of the second shooting device, and also helps to determine whether the second shooting device can be used to perform the target task based on the resource information corresponding to the second shooting device most recently acquired when the idle resources of the first shooting device cannot meet the target task.

[0082] In yet another possible implementation, see Figure 6 As shown, the above S102 may also include the following steps:

[0083] c1. Receive a second message sent by the second shooting device when the change value of the resource occupancy rate is greater than a second preset threshold.

[0084] In some embodiments, the change value of the resource occupancy rate is the change value of the resource occupancy rate of the second camera in the previous cycle compared to the resource occupancy rate corresponding to the second message sent by the second camera last time. For example, the resource occupancy rate corresponding to the second message sent by the second camera A last time is 57%, and the resource occupancy rate of the second camera A in the previous cycle is 65.35%. At this time, based on the resource occupancy rate corresponding to the second message sent by the second camera A last time and the resource occupancy rate of the second camera A in the previous cycle, it can be determined that the change value of the resource occupancy rate is 8.35%.

[0085] The resource occupancy rate corresponding to the second message is the average of the resource occupancy rates of each resource in the resource information of the second message. For example, in the resource information of the second message, the neural network processor computing power resource occupancy rate is 56%, the central processing unit computing power resource occupancy rate is 54%, the memory resource occupancy rate is 45%, the storage resource occupancy rate and the network bandwidth resource occupancy rate are 78%, then the occupancy rate corresponding to the second message is 58.25%.

[0086] The resource occupancy rate of the second camera in the previous cycle is the average resource occupancy rate of each hardware of the second camera at the end of the previous cycle. For example, assuming that at the end of the previous cycle, the computing power resource occupancy rate of the neural network processor of the second camera is 50%, the computing power resource occupancy rate of the central processing unit is 70%, and the memory resource occupancy rate is 66%. At this time, it can be determined that the resource occupancy rate of the second camera in the previous cycle is 62%.

[0087] c2. Obtain the resource occupancy rate corresponding to the second shooting device from the second message.

[0088] In some embodiments, after receiving the second message sent by the second camera when the change value of the resource occupancy rate is greater than a second preset threshold, the first camera parses the second message to obtain resource information corresponding to the second camera.

[0089] In this way, when the resource occupancy rate of the second camera device changes greatly, the first camera device can timely learn about the resource occupancy of the second camera device.

[0090] According to the above content, it can be known that in the present disclosure, the first shooting device can obtain the resource information corresponding to the second shooting device through various methods such as active request and periodic reception, so that the first shooting device can flexibly choose the method of obtaining the resource information corresponding to the second shooting device, avoiding the limitations caused by a single acquisition method.

[0091] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 As shown, before the above S103, the resource sharing method provided by the present disclosure may further include the following step d1. The above S103 may be specifically implemented as the following step d2.

[0092] d1. Determine idle resources of the first shooting device.

[0093] In some embodiments, after receiving the target task, the first shooting device obtains the usage status of one or more of the neural network processor, central processing unit, memory, storage space and network bandwidth of the first shooting device, and then determines the idle resources of the first shooting device.

[0094] For example, assuming that the computing power of the neural network processor of the first shooting device A is 10TOPS (10 trillion floating-point operations per second), and the current utilization rate is 50%; the main frequency of the central processing unit of the first shooting device A is 2.5GHz, and the current occupancy rate is 30%; the memory size of the first shooting device A is 16GB, and the current amount of memory used is 8GB; the first shooting device A is equipped with a 1TB storage hard disk, and the used storage space is 700GB; the first shooting device A is connected to a 100Mbps network, and the current network traffic is 60Mbps. At this time, it can be determined that the idle resources of the first shooting device A include 5TOPS of neural network processor computing power resources, 700MHz of central processing unit computing power resources, 8GB of memory resources, 200GB of storage resources, and 40Mbps of network bandwidth resources.

[0095] d2. If the idle resources of the first shooting device do not meet the resources required by the target task, determine the target shooting device based on the resources required by the target task and the resource occupancy rate corresponding to at least one second shooting device.

[0096] In some embodiments, the "idle resources of the first shooting device do not meet the resources required for the target task" in the above d2 may mean that the resource occupancy rate of the first shooting device when executing the target task is above the first preset threshold. The present disclosure does not impose any specific restrictions on the size of the first preset threshold.

[0097] Exemplarily, assuming that the first preset threshold is 80%, when the resource occupancy rate of the first shooting device in the state of executing the target task is above 80%, the idle resources of the first shooting device do not meet the resources required by the target task.

[0098] This helps to avoid excessive resource usage of the first shooting device, and further helps to ensure load balance between the first shooting device and at least one second shooting device.

[0099] It should be understood that when the idle resources of the first shooting device do not meet the resources required for the target task, determining the target shooting device from at least one second shooting device can also help avoid unnecessary adjustments to the target task, thereby helping to avoid unnecessary consumption of communication resources, storage resources, etc.

[0100] In one possible implementation, see Figure 8 As shown, the above S103 may include the following steps:

[0101] e1. For each second shooting device in the at least one second shooting device, based on resource information of the second shooting device and resources required for the target task, determine a resource occupancy rate of the second shooting device when executing the target task.

[0102] The resource information may also include at least one of the following: computing power resources of the neural network processor of the shooting device, computing power resources of the central processing unit, memory resources, storage resources and network bandwidth resources.

[0103] In some embodiments, the first shooting device determines the resource occupancy rate of the target task for the second shooting device based on the resource information of the second shooting device, and then determines the resource occupancy rate of the second shooting device when executing the target task based on the resource occupancy rate of the target task for the second shooting device and the resource information of the second shooting device.

[0104] For example, assuming that the resource occupancy rate corresponding to the resource information of the second camera is 50%, the first camera determines that the resource occupancy rate of the target task for the second camera is 12% based on the resource information of the second camera. At this time, based on the resource occupancy rate of the target task for the second camera and the resource information of the second camera, it is determined that the resource occupancy rate of the second camera in the state of executing the target task is 62%.

[0105] e2. Determine a target shooting device based on the resource occupancy rate of at least one second shooting device when executing the target task.

[0106] This helps to select a second shooting device with a lower resource occupancy rate when executing a target task as a target shooting device from among at least one second shooting device, thereby helping to ensure load balancing between the first shooting device and at least one second shooting device.

[0107] In one possible implementation, see Fig. 9 As shown, the above e2 may include the following steps:

[0108] f1. Based on the order of resource occupancy rates corresponding to at least one second shooting device in the state of executing the target task from small to large, search for a second shooting device whose resource occupancy rate in the state of executing the target task is less than a first preset threshold from at least one second shooting device.

[0109] It should be understood that the search is performed in the order of resource occupancy rate from small to large when executing the target task. Once a second camera having a resource occupancy rate less than the first preset threshold is found, the first camera can immediately stop searching without continuing to check the remaining second cameras. In this way, the number of searches can be greatly reduced and the search efficiency can be improved.

[0110] In another possible implementation, based on the priority of at least one second shooting device, a second shooting device whose resource occupancy rate when executing the target task is less than a first preset threshold is searched from at least one second shooting device in order of priority from high to low.

[0111] In some embodiments, the reference resource is any resource required by the target task. For example, the resources required by the target task include memory resources, CPU resources, and storage resources, and the reference resource can be any one of the memory resources, CPU resources, and storage resources.

[0112] The priority of the second shooting device and the resource occupancy rate corresponding to the reference resource in the resource occupancy rate corresponding to the second shooting device satisfy a negative correlation relationship.

[0113] f2. The second photographing device found for the first time is used as the target photographing device.

[0114] In this way, the first shooting device uses the second shooting device with the lowest resource occupancy rate when executing the target task as the target shooting device, which is beneficial to load balancing between the first shooting device and at least one second shooting device.

[0115] In some embodiments, when the first shooting device fails to find the target shooting device in at least one second shooting device, the first shooting device sends a prompt message to refuse to execute the target task.

[0116] It should be understood that when the target shooting device is not found in at least one second shooting device, it indicates that each second shooting device does not have sufficient free resources to perform the target task. At this time, refusing to execute the target task will help avoid the situation where the shooting device fails or crashes due to insufficient resources when executing the target task.

[0117] See also Fig.10 As shown, after the above S104, the technical solution provided by the present disclosure further includes the following steps:

[0118] S201, receiving task execution result information sent by the target shooting device.

[0119] The task execution result information is used to indicate the result of the target shooting device executing the target task.

[0120] For example, assuming that the target task is a storage task, specifically storing audio information acquired by the first shooting device within 20 minutes from now on, the task execution result information may be the audio information indicated by the target task that has been stored by the target shooting device.

[0121] For another example, suppose the target task is a calculation task, specifically, to calculate the number of people with blond hair based on the video information acquired by the first shooting device within 10 minutes from now on. In this case, the task execution result information may be that there are 13 people with blond hair in the video information acquired by the first shooting device within 10 minutes from now on.

[0122] In this way, the first shooting device can timely learn about the progress of the target task, thereby achieving the purpose of collaborative work between the first shooting device and the target shooting device.

[0123] As an example, the resource sharing method provided by the present disclosure may specifically include the following steps:

[0124] Step 1: Receive and execute the target task.

[0125] Step 2: Obtain resources required for the target task; obtain resource information of at least one second shooting device.

[0126] Step three, determine the idle resources of the first shooting device; if the idle resources of the first shooting device cannot meet the resources required for the target task, based on the resources required for the target task and the resource information corresponding to at least one second shooting device, determine the target shooting device for executing the target task in at least one second shooting device.

[0127] Step 4: Based on the resource occupancy rate of at least one second camera in the state of executing the target task, search for a second camera whose resource occupancy rate is less than the first preset threshold value from at least one second camera in the state of executing the target task. If at least one second camera includes a second camera whose resource occupancy rate is less than the first preset threshold value in the state of executing the target task, proceed to step 5; if the target camera is not found in at least one second camera, issue a prompt message to prompt that the target task is rejected.

[0128] Step 5: Use the second shooting device found for the first time as the target shooting device.

[0129] Step 6: Share the shooting information of the first shooting device with the target shooting device, and send a collaborative work instruction to the target shooting device.

[0130] Step 7: Receive the task execution result information sent by the target shooting device.
