[0006] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the terminal bracket is provided with a hydraulic lifting rod driven by a hydraulic system, the bottom of the hydraulic lifting rod is provided with a supporting base plate, the top of the hydraulic lifting rod is provided with a top plate to support the terminal host, the terminal host is provided with a control motherboard for processing the collected data, and the control motherboard is provided with a network module that is connected to the conference server.

[0007] The above technical solution is adopted: the hydraulic lifting rod inside the terminal bracket can be adjusted in height under the drive of the hydraulic system; the control motherboard in the terminal host can preprocess the image, sound and other data acquired by the camera; the network module in the control motherboard establishes a stable signal connection with the conference server, uploads the processed data to the conference server, and receives instructions from the conference server to realize bidirectional data transmission and ensure the smooth progress of the meeting.

[0008] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the rotating support includes a rotating motor connected to the control motherboard signal and a rotating base for support. The rotating motor is fixedly installed inside the terminal host, and the output end of the rotating motor is fixedly installed with a rotating base that rotates inside the terminal host. A protective base for support is provided at the top of the rotating base.

[0009] The above technical solution is adopted as follows: when it is necessary to adjust the direction of the acquisition camera, the control motherboard controls the rotary motor to start, and its output end drives the rotating base to rotate inside the terminal host. The protective base at the top of the rotating base provides an installation and support platform for the acquisition support, ensuring the stable operation of the acquisition support and its internal components, and realizing the flexible rotation adjustment of the acquisition camera in the horizontal direction.

[0010] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the acquisition support includes an adjustment motor connected to the main board signal and an adjustment turntable that rotates.
