360-DEGREE AUTOMATIC TRACKING HUNTING CAMERA AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF

摘要

The invention discloses a camera comprises a central processing unit (the processor), at least three infrared sensors connected to respective input port of the processor, and a camera head connected to the processor and is controllable by the processor, a rotation mechanism for mounting the camera head and for pivoting clockwise or counterclockwise under control of the processor, and a power supply for providing power to the above mentioned processor, camera head, infrared sensors and the rotation mechanism. All the infrared sensors are arranged circumferentially on the device and a vision scope of one infrared sensor partially overlaps with a vision scope of an adjacent infrared sensor such that the total vision scope covers 360 degrees. Each infrared sensor defines a shooting orientation, and the partially overlapping area of the vision scopes of adjacent infrared sensors also defines a shooting orientation such that the total shooting orientation is doubled. The invention is advantageous in that a target object within the 360 degree range can be captured by the device, and the arrangement of valid shooting orientations may greatly simplify the control process and therefore extend the battery life.
