[0007] The positive terminal of the fuse box power take-off 3 is connected to both the positive terminal of the car fuse box 2 and the positive terminal of the vehicle relay 4, and the negative terminal of the fuse box power take-off 3 is connected to both the negative terminal of the car fuse box 2 and the negative terminal of the vehicle relay 4.
[0008] Connect the power interface of camera 6 to the power interface of router 7 and the output terminal of voltage regulator module 5. The camera 6 is connected to the LAN interface of router 7 via a network cable.
[0009] Furthermore, the voltage regulator module 5 is used to stabilize the power supply voltage and output a stable DC12V voltage.
[0010] Furthermore, the vehicle relay 4 is used to control the working state of the voltage regulator module 5.
[0011] Furthermore, the output terminal of the voltage regulator module 5 is connected to the power interface of the camera 6 via a seven-pin aviation connector.
[0012] Furthermore, the normally open contacts of the vehicle relay 4 are respectively led out with positive and negative power lines and connected to the power input port of the voltage regulator module 5, specifically including:
[0013] The normally open contact of the vehicle relay 4 is connected to the XT60 connector, the XT60 connector is connected to the seven-pin aviation plug, and the other end of the seven-pin aviation plug is connected to the power input port of the voltage regulator module 5.
[0014] Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted relay 4 is a five-pin changeover relay.
[0015] Furthermore, the camera 6 is connected to the LAN interface of the router 7 via a network cable to provide a wireless network for the camera 6.
[0016] Furthermore, the router 7 is used to receive the monitoring images captured by the camera 6 and upload the monitoring video to a preset server after the vehicle is unlocked / started.
[0017] As can be seen from the above, the technical solution provided in this application stabilizes the power supply at 12V through a voltage regulator module, and then controls the voltage regulator module through a relay. The relay draws power from the vehicle's fuse box to control its activation and deactivation, thereby providing power to the camera and router.

Figure 1 and Figure 2 The vehicle monitoring system consists of a vehicle battery 1, a vehicle relay 4, a voltage regulator module 5, a fuse box power supply 3, a camera 6, and a router 7.
[0023] The positive and negative terminals of the vehicle battery 1 are connected to the common terminal contact of the vehicle relay 4, and the normally open contacts of the vehicle relay 4 lead out positive and negative power lines to connect to the power input port of the voltage regulator module 5.
[0024] The positive terminal of the fuse box power take-off 3 is connected to both the positive terminal of the car fuse box 2 and the positive terminal of the vehicle relay 4, and the negative terminal of the fuse box power take-off 3 is connected to both the negative terminal of the car fuse box 2 and the negative terminal of the vehicle relay 4.

Positive and negative power lines are led out from the normally open contacts of the vehicle relay 4 and connected to the power input port of the voltage regulator module 5. This avoids the voltage regulator module 5 from being in a constantly operating state, effectively improving safety.
[0031] Furthermore, the output terminal of the voltage regulator module 5 is connected to the power interface of the camera 6 via a seven-pin aviation connector.
[0032] Further, refer to Figure 2The normally open contacts of the vehicle relay 4 are respectively led out as positive and negative power lines and connected to the power input port of the voltage regulator module 5. Specifically, the normally open contacts of the vehicle relay 4 are connected to the XT60 connector, the XT60 connector is connected to the seven-pin aviation plug, and the other end of the seven-pin aviation plug is connected to the power input port of the voltage regulator module 5.
[0033] Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted relay 4 is a five-pin changeover relay.
[0034] Connect the power interface of camera 6 to the power interface of router 7 and the output terminal of voltage regulator module 5. The camera 6 is connected to the LAN interface of router 7 via a network cable.
[0035] Furthermore, the camera 6 is connected to the LAN interface of the router 7 via a network cable to provide a wireless network for the camera 6.
[0036] Connect the power supplies for camera 6 and router 7 to the output of voltage regulator module 5 to power both devices. Connect camera 6's network cable to the LAN port of router 7 to provide wireless network access.
[0037] Furthermore, the router 7 is used to receive the monitoring images captured by the camera 6 and upload the monitoring video to a preset server after the vehicle is unlocked / started.
[0038] This application has the following advantages:
[0039] The video surveillance system proposed in this application draws power from the vehicle battery, stabilizes the power supply at 12V through a voltage regulator module, and then controls the voltage regulator module through a relay. The relay draws power from the vehicle fuse box to control the activation and deactivation of the relay, thereby providing power to the camera and router. When the vehicle is unlocked or started, the camera is powered on and begins recording video, which is then uploaded to the cloud or a third-party platform. When the vehicle is turned off and locked, the power is disconnected, and the video surveillance system is turned off.
