AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In environments with large temperature differences, condensation can easily form on the tempered glass side of the water meter, causing the camera to misread or fail to read data properly.

Method used

A transparent column is placed between the camera and the tempered glass. The transparent column is in close contact with the tempered glass and is fixed with waterproof double-sided tape to reduce the formation of condensation droplets caused by temperature differences. The camera takes pictures of the reading panel through the transparent column and the tempered glass.

Benefits of technology

In environments with large temperature differences, the impact of condensation on camera readings is reduced, ensuring the clarity and accuracy of the readings, and an observation port is provided for manual verification and calibration.
