[0002] Cameras in new energy vehicles play an important role in many aspects. First, one of the main applications of on-board cameras in cars is the driving recorder, which can record the road conditions in front of the car in real time, including road conditions, traffic signals, driving events, etc. In the event of a traffic accident or dispute, these records can provide strong evidence. Secondly, with the development of intelligent automobiles, cameras have begun to be combined with algorithms to realize various driving assistance functions, such as lane departure warning, car collision warning and other ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) functions, which can greatly improve driving safety. These cameras can be installed in different positions of the vehicle, such as the front, rear, and side, to capture image data of the vehicle's surroundings. After processing, these data can provide important decision-making basis for the driver or the autonomous driving system.

[0003] Ethernet gateway is the middleware that connects the camera with other network devices. It plays an important role in data transmission, management and control in new energy vehicles. The gateway can upload the data collected by the camera to the server or cloud platform to ensure the normal operation of the video surveillance system. At the same time, the gateway can also manage and control the camera, including parameter setting, device mapping, video recording, etc. In addition, the gateway can also ensure the security of video transmission through password authentication, data encryption and other methods.
