SECURITY CAMERA HAVING A BODY ORIENTATION SENSOR AND METHOD OF USE

摘要

A security camera includes a camera body and a body orientation sensor for detecting an orientation of the camera body. The security camera can include an orientation feedback system used with the body orientation sensor to adjust a position of the security camera to true camera. This orientation feedback system indicates degree to which the camera body is off horizontal/vertical. The security camera is part of a video security system that has an image processing unit for de-warping and/or rotating (e.g., 90 degrees) a raw image based on the orientation detected by the body orientation sensor.
