Wireless Camera Tracking via External Device Signals
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing image capturing devices face inconvenience when capturing moving subjects, as they require manual adjustment of the camera direction or angle of view, and existing methods for tracking body parts have low recognition rates at high subject speeds, leading to degraded image quality.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device equipped with a communication circuit, memory, and camera, where a processor acquires information about the location of an external device related to the subject through wireless communication, receives subject information, and configures image capturing information based on this data to automatically adjust the camera settings according to the subject's movement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual adjustment of camera direction or angle of view is used to capture moving subjects, then the user can attempt to track the subject, but the operation becomes inconvenient and the recognition rate decreases when subject movement exceeds designated speed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical adjustment of camera direction with an automatic tracking system that uses wireless communication signals to detect subject location and movement. The processor automatically adjusts camera parameters based on received signal information, eliminating the need for manual operation while maintaining high recognition rates even when subjects move quickly.
Solution Approach 2:
The camera system performs self-tracking by automatically receiving location information from external devices via wireless communication. The processor autonomously configures image capturing parameters without user intervention, allowing the system to service itself in tracking moving subjects while maintaining operational convenience.
2Measurement precision
If existing image processing methods are used to recognize body parts, then the system can attempt to track subjects, but the recognition rate becomes low when the subject's movement exceeds a designated speed
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary tracking by continuously receiving wireless communication signals from external devices before capturing images. This allows the processor to pre-determine subject location and movement trajectory, enabling it to maintain high recognition rates even when subjects move at high speeds by having tracking information ready in advance.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces wireless communication signals as an intermediary between the camera and the moving subject. Instead of relying solely on visual image processing, the system uses transmitted signal information as a mediator to accurately determine subject location and movement, thereby maintaining high recognition rates independent of subject speed.
3Reliability
If the user directly changes image capturing direction or angle of view to capture moving subjects, then the subject can be tracked, but the operation becomes inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical adjustment of camera direction with an automatic tracking system that uses wireless communication signals to detect subject location and movement. The processor automatically adjusts camera parameters based on received signal information, eliminating the need for manual operation while maintaining high recognition rates even when subjects move quickly.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by continuously receiving wireless communication signals from external devices and using this information to automatically adjust camera capturing parameters. This closed-loop feedback mechanism ensures reliable tracking of moving subjects while completely eliminating the need for manual user intervention.
4Ease of operation
If automatic tracking based on wireless communication signals is implemented, then the convenience and recognition rate improve, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes the existing communication circuit and processor of the electronic device for dual purposes: both for general device operations and for receiving wireless communication signals from external devices. By making these components multi-functional, the system achieves automatic subject tracking without adding separate dedicated hardware, thereby limiting the increase in device complexity.
