Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cameras with image processing functions, in particular to a camera with image processing functions. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of cameras, and their basic working principles are the same: converting optical image signals into electrical signals for storage or transmission. When we shoot an object, the light reflected from the object is collected by the camera lens and focused on the light-receiving surface of the camera device, such as the target surface of a camera tube. The light is then converted into electrical energy through the camera device to obtain a video signal. Existing surveillance cameras usually only have the function of shooting and storage, and rarely have the function of image processing. When processing the image, the video data needs to be exported and manually processed by an external computer, which increases the workload of personnel.

[0003] After searching, it was found that a camera with a protective function was disclosed in the Chinese patent with authorization announcement 202222711752.1, including a rotating base, the top of which is rotatably connected to a support frame, and the top of the support frame is provided with a camera body. The camera with a protective function, through the top protective plate, positioning plate and L-shaped protective plate installed on the outside of the camera body, is convenient for reducing the impact force by contracting the buffer spring when it is hit, playing a buffering role, avoiding direct collision with the surface of the camera body, and preventing rain from dripping onto the surface of the camera body. Through the sealing cover, it is convenient to prevent the lens of the camera body from being dusty or bumped when not in use, thereby solving the problem of poor protection performance of the camera.

[0004] However, the patents in the prior art have the following disadvantages:

[0005] The installation and fixing method of this camera with protection function is relatively simple. It can only be fixed on a flat surface. When the surface of the fixed object is uneven, the camera cannot be adjusted to be vertical to the ground or horizontal. At the same time, the camera cannot process images and has no infrared night vision function. The images recorded in dark conditions are not clear. Utility Model Content
