When state but control module 102 do not receive the detectable signal of the transmission of detecting module 101, power supply 104 is not to signal processing module 103
Power supply, video camera is without recording, and so as to reduce the power consumption of video camera, extend the battery of video camera uses the time.
In the present embodiment, control module can be MCU (Microcontroller Unit, micro-control unit), can also
To be that by other processors of the function of control module;Signal processing module can be DSP (Digital Signal
Processing, Digital Signal Processing) module, it is also possible to can be realized other processors of the function of signal processing module.
Below using control module be MCU, signal processing module is illustrated as DSP module.
As shown in Fig. 2, power supply 204 is powered to detecting module 201, MCU202 and DSP module 203.Power supply 204 includes often supplying

Enable signal is sent to energy supply control module 205, so that power supply 204 is powered to DSP module 203;When DSP module 203 is powering off
State, but MCU202 judges that digital signal no more than preset threshold, does not send enable signal, electricity to energy supply control module 205
Source 204 does not power to DSP module 203.For example, MCU202 receives pickup when not having sound or sound very little in environment
After the sound-detection signal that device is sent, judge that the digital signal that sound-detection signal is converted to is not more than preset threshold, then
Enable signal is not sent to energy supply control module 205;When someone's dialogue or thing are dropped in environment, when sound is larger,
After MCU202 receives the sound-detection signal of sound pick-up transmission, the digital signal for judging that sound-detection signal is converted to is big
In preset threshold, then enable signal is sent to energy supply control module 205.

Beginningization sensor (imaging sensor).The first frame data used time about 100ms is obtained, general front cross frame data do not save.This stage
Used time about 150ms.
APP (Application, application program) load is carried out later, while image data is stored in OV788 chip RAM
(RamdomAccessMemory, internal random access memory), this used time in stage about 218ms.
After this, wifi initialization, used time about 21ms are carried out.
After the completion of wifi initialization, wifi is connect with Cloud Server, used time about 400ms.
DSP module starts to control ICR after powering on, and carries out ICR switching, conventional ICR switching needs used time about 500ms, with APP
Load and wifi are initialized while being carried out.In APP load loading procedure, image is temporarily held in RAM, does not spend the time.APP
After the completion of load, image is temporarily held in SDRAM, and (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory is synchronized
Dynamic RAM), the video for the 120MB that the vertical pixel of video is 720P is passed in SDRAM and used with the speed of 2Mbps
When be greater than 60s, can with wifi initialize and wifi connect Cloud Server and carry out simultaneously.After wifi is connected to Cloud Server
The data cached in SDRAM are uploaded to Cloud Server.
It is initialized it can be seen from the above, receiving signal from MCU to sensor, 374ms when sharing relatively rapidly is imaged
Machine is capable of fast starting and starts to record a video.
