Detachable Vehicle Surveillance Camera With Wireless Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing surveillance cameras for monitoring children in vehicles have short battery life, inconvenient image viewing during driving, and are connected to center console displays via disordered wired digital-analog signals.
Innovation Solution
A surveillance camera system with a detachable and adjustable camera assembly using a hook and loop fastener or clip for easy placement, universal ball for angle adjustment, and infrared lamps for night vision, paired with a wireless center console display for real-time image viewing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the surveillance camera is fixedly arranged on the child seat, then the camera is stable and secure, but the battery life cannot be guaranteed and the camera cannot be easily removed for charging or viewing
Solution Approach 1:
The camera system is divided into separate components: the camera assembly with battery can be detached from the mounting base, allowing the camera to be removed for charging while leaving the mounting structure in place. This segmentation resolves the contradiction between stable installation and easy removability.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting mechanism transitions from a fixed rigid connection to a dynamic system that allows both secure attachment during operation and easy detachment when needed. The adjustable mounting angle and detachable design enable the system to adapt between stable monitoring mode and convenient removal mode.
2Reliability
If the camera and center console display are connected in a wired manner based on digital-analog signals, then the connection is stable, but there are disordered wires and the system is complex
Solution Approach 1:
The mechanical wired connection system is replaced with a wireless communication system. The camera transmits images wirelessly to the center console display, eliminating the need for physical cables and signal converters while maintaining connection stability through wireless protocols.
3Ease of operation
If the camera is used for photographing and people need to view images on the camera, then the camera functions as intended, but it is inconvenient to remove the camera to view monitored images
Solution Approach 1:
The center console display acts as an intermediary device between the camera and the user. Instead of requiring direct interaction with the camera to view images, the display serves as a mediator that receives and presents the monitored images, making image viewing convenient while the camera remains in its monitoring position.
4Duration of action of moving object
If the surveillance camera monitors children in child seats, then safety monitoring is achieved, but the battery life is short and the camera cannot be easily recharged
Solution Approach 1:
The camera system is segmented into a permanent mounted portion and a removable camera assembly with battery. This allows the camera to be easily detached and recharged without removing the entire mounting structure, improving both monitoring duration through regular charging and charging convenience through easy access.
