[0022] Please see Figure 1 A Bluetooth speaker with camera function includes a Bluetooth module 1, a monitoring module 2, a camera 3, a control module 4, a sound generation module 5, a wireless communication module 6, and a power supply module 7.

[0023] The signal output terminals of the Bluetooth module 1, monitoring module 2, and camera 3 are connected to the signal input terminal of the control module 4. The signal output terminal of the control module 4 is connected to the signal input terminal of the sound-generating module 5. The wireless communication module 6 interacts and transmits signals with the control module 4. The power supply module 7 provides power to the Bluetooth module 1, monitoring module 2, camera 3, sound-generating module 5, and wireless communication module 6 through the control module 4.

[0024] The monitoring module 2 includes any one of an infrared sensor, a radar sensor, or an infrared sensor; the wireless communication module 6 includes any one of a WIFI module, a 4G communication module, or a 5G communication module. Multiple cameras 3 can be installed on different sides of the speaker, enabling multi-angle shooting.

[0025] When monitoring module 2 detects someone approaching, it sends a monitoring signal to control module 4. Control module 4 then activates camera 3 to capture images and sends the captured footage back to control module 4. Control module 4 then transmits the video or image information to the store clerk's mobile phone via wireless communication module 6. Simultaneously, control module 4 controls sound module 5 to emit a preset sound message through the speaker, such as "Welcome!" If the store clerk is in the store, they can recognize the customer's presence through the sound message and quickly serve them. If the store clerk is not in the store, they can still determine if the customer is a familiar customer through the video message, allowing them to contact the customer upon returning to the store and invite them to come back. If any inappropriate behavior is detected, an alarm can be triggered to prevent losses to the store, thus fulfilling the monitoring function.

[0026] In this way, a Bluetooth speaker with camera function is set up by the cooperation of Bluetooth module 1, monitoring module 2, camera 3, control module 4, sound module 5, and wireless communication module 6. When the monitoring module 2 detects someone approaching, it sends a monitoring signal to the control module 4. The control module 4 then controls the camera 3 to start, acquire video information of the customer, and sends the video information to the store clerk's mobile phone through the wireless communication module 6. Even if the store clerk is not in the store, he can still acquire video information of the customer and contact the customer when he returns to the store to provide follow-up service.

[0027] In one embodiment, the Bluetooth speaker with camera function also includes a microphone 8, which is electrically connected to the control module 4. The microphone 8 is used to collect audio signals, and when a human body is detected approaching, the microphone 8 is activated to record audio.

[0028] In this way, by setting up the microphone 8, the audio information of the customer can be obtained when the customer approaches, so as to obtain the product that the customer wants to buy based on the customer's audio information.

[0029] In one embodiment, the Bluetooth speaker with camera function further includes a storage module 9, which is used to store the video and photos recorded by the camera 3 and the audio information collected by the microphone 8.

[0030] In this way, the video and photos recorded by the camera 3 and the audio information collected by the microphone 8 are stored through the storage module 9 so that they can be retrieved when needed later.

[0031] In one embodiment, the Bluetooth speaker with camera function further includes a voice module 10, which is electrically connected to the control module 4. When the monitoring module 2 detects a human body approaching, the control module 4 controls the voice module 10 to play a pre-stored warning audio, which is emitted through the sound-emitting module 5. The Bluetooth speaker with camera function also includes an alarm module 11, which is electrically connected to the control module 4. The alarm module 11 is either a speaker or a buzzer.

[0032] Thus, the voice module 10 is generally activated at night. When someone enters the store at night, the control module 4 controls the voice module 10 to play a pre-stored warning audio. The warning audio is emitted through the sound module 5 and the speaker, serving a certain warning function. At the same time, the control module 4 controls the alarm module 11 to activate and sound an alarm.

[0033] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment, the power supply module 7 includes a power detection unit 71 and a power supply unit 72. The power detection unit 71 is electrically connected to the control module 4 and is used to detect the power value of the power supply unit 72 in real time and send it to the control module 4.

[0034] In this way, the power detection unit 71 detects the voltage value of the power supply unit 72 in real time and sends it to the control module 4. When the detected voltage value is lower than the preset threshold, the control module 4 controls the charging unit 73 to charge the power supply unit 72.
