Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera technology, and in particular to an intelligent camera. Background Technology

[0002] Cameras are one of the electronic accessories in a scene. Some cameras on the market use flexible tubes as supports. The camera is set on the flexible tube and can be rotated to any position through the flexible tube, which is convenient for users to adjust.

[0003] However, the video footage captured by these traditional cameras usually does not adjust its orientation as the camera rotates, so it still requires manual adjustment on a computer or software, making it inconvenient to use.

[0004] For example, Chinese patent application number CN202122641379 discloses a shooting device including a base, a shooting component, and a support rod, wherein the support rod is connected to the base and the shooting component; wherein, at least part of the support rod is a flexible metal tube to adjust different shooting angles of the shooting component. This type of camera uses a flexible tube to adjust the shooting direction; however, the image captured by this type of camera does not adjust with changes in camera direction, requiring manual adjustment on a computer or software, which is inconvenient to use.

[0005] For example, CN201220614730.7 describes an improved multi-functional camera. This type of camera also uses a flexible tube to adjust the shooting direction. However, the image captured by this type of camera does not adjust with the change of camera direction. It still requires manual adjustment on a computer or software, which is inconvenient to use.
