Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual operation is used to synchronize camera movements with background music, then specific image motion effects can be achieved, but it requires high-level professional skills and is difficult to operate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical operation with an automatic control system that processes external signals (such as audio signals from background music) to generate control instructions. The processor analyzes the external signal characteristics and automatically controls the gimbal and camera parameters, eliminating the need for professional manual operation while achieving synchronized image motion effects with the music
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables itself to automatically analyze external signals and adjust its own parameters. The processor within the gimbal device processes the external signal and generates control instructions autonomously, allowing the system to self-regulate its motion and photographing parameters without requiring external professional intervention
2Adaptability or versatility
If professional video photographers manually analyze music style and design recording motion, then synchronized audio-visual effects can be achieved, but the process is complex and not suitable for normal consumers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the complex manual process of music analysis and motion design with an automated signal processing system. The processor automatically analyzes the characteristics of external signals (such as audio beats, rhythm, and melody) and translates them into corresponding gimbal motion and camera parameter adjustments, achieving professional-grade synchronized audio-visual effects without requiring users to manually analyze music or design motions
Solution Approach 2:
The system is designed to universally handle various types of external signals and automatically adapt to different music styles. The processor can process different audio characteristics and generate appropriate control instructions for various photographing scenarios, making the system suitable for normal consumers rather than just professional photographers
3Manufacturing precision
If gimbal is locked for manual operation, then precise control can be achieved, but it reduces operational flexibility and requires professional skills
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual locking and controlling with an automatic control system that processes external signals in real-time. The processor continuously generates control instructions based on the external signal characteristics, maintaining precise control of the gimbal and camera parameters without requiring manual locking or professional operation skills
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from a static locked state to a dynamic automatic control state. The gimbal and camera parameters are continuously adjusted based on real-time external signal analysis, allowing the system to adapt its precision control to changing conditions while remaining easy to operate

AI summary
A gimbal photographing method includes obtaining an external signal, processing the external signal to generate one or more gimbal action control instructions and one or more photographing control instructions, controlling a gimbal to perform a corresponding action according to at least one of the one or more gimbal action control instructions, and controlling a camera device to perform photographing according to at least one of the one or more photographing control instructions. The at least one of the one or more photographing control instructions cause the camera device to photograph along with the action performed by the gimbal during at least part of a whole photographing process.
