[0002] Driver-perspective vehicle monitoring systems are part of modern automotive safety and intelligent systems, designed to ensure driving safety by monitoring the driver's behavior, state, and driving environment. This technology has gradually become a core component of autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems, with driver-perspective monitoring serving as a crucial element in ensuring the driver can take over driving tasks at any time and prevent accidents; it is quite common in daily life.

[0003] Existing technologies, such as the utility model patent with announcement number CN209650163U, disclose a vehicle-mounted monitoring device for logistics vehicles. This patent includes a mounting plate with a suction cup at its top and a first spring telescopic rod fixedly connected to its bottom. A U-shaped frame is connected to the bottom of the first spring telescopic rod via bearings. An outer shell is housed within the U-shaped frame, and the two sides of the outer shell are connected to the U-shaped frame via bearings. A monitoring device body is housed within the outer shell. Shock-absorbing springs connect the monitoring device body to the outer shell, and these springs are located at the top and bottom of the monitoring device body. Shock-absorbing plates are located on both sides of the monitoring device body and are fixedly connected to the outer shell. A camera is installed on one side of the monitoring device body. This vehicle-mounted monitoring device for logistics vehicles improves the convenience of installation and disassembly, effectively reduces damage to the monitoring device from vehicle vibrations, and extends the service life of the monitoring device.

[0004] In daily use, it has been found that when car cameras are used for extended periods, they are exposed to environmental factors such as high temperatures, humidity, and vibrations inside the car. This causes the internal circuitry and lens materials of the camera to gradually age, which can easily lead to problems such as blurry or distorted images or the camera failing to start. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where, during prolonged operation of cameras inside automobiles, the cameras are exposed to environmental factors such as high temperatures, humidity, and vibrations inside the vehicle, causing the internal circuitry and lens materials to gradually age, which can easily lead to blurred or distorted images or the camera failing to start.
