An embodiment of the present application provides a data storage method for an endoscope camera host, as shown in fig. 2, which is a flowchart of steps of the data storage method, and includes the following steps:
and step 100, acquiring image information acquired and generated by an image acquisition device. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the image pickup device of the endoscope may include an endoscope 3000 and a camera 6000.
A user can hold an operation portion (handle) of the camera 6000 and extend the endoscope 3000 into the body of a patient, wherein optical elements such as lenses are provided in the endoscope 3000 and the camera 6000. The camera 6000 may be provided therein with an image sensor positioned on a light path on which the optical element is positioned to convert an optical signal acquired by the endoscope 3000 into image information. The image sensor may include, but is not limited to, a CCD sensor, a CMOS sensor, and the like. The camera 6000 transmits the acquired image information to the camera host 1000 for further processing, such as converting, compressing, storing and the like of the image information. The camera host 1000 may also display the converted image information on the display 2000 for viewing by a user.
One or more operation keys are provided on the operation portion of the camera 6000, and the camera 6000 can execute corresponding functions according to the operation of the operation keys by the user. For example, the operation keys may include a video recording key and a photo taking key, and the camera 6000 may perform a video recording operation according to the operation of the user on the video recording key and may also perform a photo screenshot operation according to the operation of the user on the photo taking key. Specifically, when the video recording key is pressed for the first time, the camera host 1000 may be controlled to execute a video recording start operation; when the recording button is pressed again, the camera host 1000 may be controlled to perform a recording end operation. In other embodiments, the operation keys may also include a video recording start key and a video recording end key for controlling the camera host 1000 to perform the video recording start operation and the video recording end operation, respectively.
In one embodiment, step 100 further comprises: determining an operation type for controlling the image acquisition equipment to acquire and generate the image information, and acquiring the image information acquired and generated by the image acquisition equipment based on the operation type.
In an embodiment, the operation type may include a video recording operation and a photographing operation, and when it is determined that the operation type is the video recording operation, image information corresponding to each segment time is obtained from image information acquired and generated by the image acquisition device based on a segment time manner; and when the operation type is determined to be the photographing operation, acquiring image information corresponding to the triggering moment of the photographing operation from the image information acquired and generated by the image acquisition equipment. Correspondingly, the camera host 1000 acquires the image information transmitted by the image acquisition device to store the image information as a video file or a picture file, wherein the type of the video file includes, but is not limited to, mp4, avi, and flv, and the type of the picture file includes, but is not limited to, jpeg, png, gif, and the like.
For example, when a user performs an operation or examination using an endoscope, the camera host may start to perform a recording operation upon receiving a recording start instruction, where the recording start instruction may be issued by the user operating a recording key of the handle of the camera 6000, may be issued by the user operating a corresponding function key on the camera host 1000, or may be issued by a remote controller associated with the camera host 1000. When a user wishes to take a picture of a current picture, the user may send a picture taking instruction to save the current picture as a picture, where the picture taking instruction may be sent by the user operating a picture taking key on a handle of the camera 6000, or may be sent by the user operating a corresponding function key on the camera host 1000, or may be sent by a remote controller associated with the camera host 1000. When the user wants to stop recording, the user may send a recording end instruction, where the recording end instruction may be sent by the user operating a recording key on the handle of the camera 6000, or may be sent by the user operating a corresponding function key on the camera host 1000, or may be sent by a remote controller associated with the camera host 1000.
In an embodiment, when the operation type is a video recording operation, since the specific duration of the video recording is uncertain, the host camera 1000 may obtain the image information corresponding to each segment time from the image information collected and generated by the image collecting device based on a segment time manner, where the segment time manner includes determining each segment time based on a segment time length, and the segment time length includes a fixed time length or a non-fixed time length.
For example, when the segment time length is a fixed time length (e.g., 10 minutes), the camera host 1000 generates a video file of one segment of 10 minutes from the acquired image information; when the segment time length is a non-fixed time length, the camera host 1000 may generate a video file of a corresponding length according to the start and end operations of the user on the video recording key.
In an embodiment, when the operation type is a photographing operation, the camera host 1000 acquires image information corresponding to the trigger time of the photographing operation from the image information acquired and generated by the image acquisition device. In an embodiment, the camera host 1000 may generate a static image file (e.g., png, jpeg type file) according to the image information at the trigger time of the photographing operation; or generating a dynamic image file (such as a gif type file) from the image information corresponding to the trigger time of the photographing operation, and specifically generating the dynamic image file according to the image information within a preset time range including the trigger time of the photographing operation. For example, if the trigger time is 11:30: 00, the preset time range is 10 seconds, the image information between 11:29:55 and 11:30:05 can be acquired, and a dynamic image file is generated according to the image information.
The memory may include one or more of an internal memory and an external memory, wherein the external memory may be connected to the camera host 1000 through a communication interface, which includes but is not limited to a USB interface, an SD interface, and the like. In one embodiment, the internal memory may be a hard disk provided in the camera host 1000; the external memory may be a plug-in memory, such as a flash disk, a magnetic disk or an optical disk, a hard disk, etc. connected through a USB interface of the camera host 1000. The number of the internal memories may be one or more, and the number of the external memories may be one or more.
104, judging whether the residual storage space of the first storage meets a preset condition or not; when it is determined that the remaining storage space of the first storage meets the preset condition, executing step 106; when it is determined that the remaining storage space of the first storage does not satisfy the preset condition, step 108 is performed.
In one embodiment, step 104 includes: determining the size of the space occupied by the image information when the image information is stored in the first memory;
judging whether the residual storage space of the first memory is larger than the occupied space size of the image information or not;
when the fact that the residual storage space of the first storage is larger than the occupied space size of the image information is determined, determining that the residual storage space of the first storage meets the preset condition;
and when the fact that the remaining storage space of the first storage is not larger than the occupied space size of the image information is determined, determining that the remaining storage space of the first storage does not meet the preset condition.
In an embodiment, to reduce the space occupied by the stored image information, the host 1000 may select to perform compression processing on the acquired image information (including image information acquired based on a video recording operation or a photographing operation) to obtain compressed image information. The host 1000 may determine in advance the size of the space occupied by the compressed image information stored in the first memory, so as to determine whether the remaining storage space of the first memory meets the preset condition.
For example, the camera host 1000 may compress the image information obtained in the time period to obtain compressed image information; or controlling the image information corresponding to the triggering moment of the photographing operation to be compressed so as to obtain the compressed image information. The processor 500 may further determine the size of the space occupied by the image information to be stored in the first storage according to the size of the space occupied by the compressed image information in the memory.
In one embodiment, when the first memory is selected from more than two memories, since the image information to be stored when the endoscope performs the operation is uncertain, in order to reduce the number of times of switching the memories for storing the image information as much as possible, it can be determined whether the remaining space of the selected first memory is larger than a preset storage space; when the residual storage space of the first storage is larger than the preset storage space, the selected first storage can be used as a target storage for storing the image information, and the fact that the residual storage space of the first storage meets the preset condition can be determined; when the remaining storage space of the first memory is not greater than the preset storage space, it is determined that the remaining storage space of the first memory does not satisfy the preset condition, and at this time, the processor 500 may select one second memory different from the first memory from the two or more memories, and may store the acquired image information in the selected second memory. In an embodiment, when the second memory is selected, it may be further determined whether the second memory also satisfies the predetermined condition, and the determination method is the same as the above.
In an embodiment, the camera host 1000 may select the first memory from more than two memories according to a preset rule. For example, the remaining storage space of each memory is obtained, and the memory with the remaining storage space exceeding the preset value in more than two memories is determined as the first memory. For example, a memory with a remaining storage space larger than 1gb (gigabyte) may be selected as the first memory to store the acquired image information.
In some cases, the remaining storage space of the plurality of memories may exceed a predetermined value, and therefore, in an embodiment, the host 1000 obtains the number of devices in the memory whose remaining storage space exceeds the predetermined value, and determines whether the number of devices is greater than a predetermined number (e.g., the predetermined number is 1). When the number of devices is greater than the preset number, one of the two or more memories is randomly determined as the target memory (i.e., the first memory).
In one embodiment, since the internal memory and the external memory have different attributes such as portability, read/write performance, and the like, the host 1000 may determine the priority of each memory according to the type of the memory, the read/write performance, and one or more factors in the remaining storage space. Thus, the memory with the highest priority may be determined to be the first memory based on the priority of each memory.
And 106, controlling to store the image information in the first memory.
When it is determined that the remaining storage space of the first memory satisfies the preset condition, the host 1000 may store the obtained image information in the first memory.
For example, when the host camera 1000 performs a video recording operation, the image information corresponding to each segment time may be compressed, and the compressed image information may be stored in a video file in the first memory. Since the camera host 1000 may have acquired image information for a plurality of segment times. Therefore, when storing the image information acquired at the current sectioning time as a video file, the image information acquired at the current sectioning time may be subjected to a merging process with the image information of a plurality of sectioning times that have been acquired previously, so that the acquired image information may be stored in the same video file during the video recording. When the camera host 1000 performs a photographing operation, the image information corresponding to the trigger time of the photographing operation is compressed in the memory, and the processed image information is written into the first memory from the memory.
In an embodiment, after the host 1000 determines that the acquired image information is stored in the first memory, the subsequently acquired image information will be stored in the first memory, and therefore, the remaining storage space of the first memory is continuously reduced. In order to ensure that the image information can be completely and continuously stored in the second memory, whether the residual storage space of the first memory is smaller than a preset storage limit value after the image information is stored in the first memory is also judged; when the remaining storage space is determined to be smaller than the storage limit value, the display screen of the camera host 1000 can be controlled to output second prompt information, and a new target storage is selected from more than two storages, for example, the second storage is selected to store subsequently obtained image information.
And step 108, controlling to store the image information in a second memory.
When it is determined that the remaining storage space of the first memory does not satisfy the preset condition, it indicates that the first memory does not have enough storage space to store the obtained image information, and therefore, the camera host 1000 switches to use the second memory to store the obtained image information, and may also control the display screen to output the first prompt information.
For example, the host 1000 may select a second memory from two or more memories to store the obtained image information in the second memory, and in this case, the second memory is a new target memory. In one embodiment, the first memory may be an internal memory, and the second memory may be an external memory; alternatively, the first memory may be an external memory, and the second memory may be an internal memory; alternatively, the first memory and the second memory may be both external memory or internal memory.
In an embodiment, when the obtained image information is stored in the second memory, the host 1000 may perform a determination similar to step 104 to determine whether the remaining storage space of the second memory also satisfies the predetermined condition (i.e. the second memory is equivalent to the first memory). In this way, the camera host 1000 may further determine whether the remaining storage spaces of the two or more memories do not satisfy the preset condition; when the remaining storage space of more than two storages connected with the endoscope does not meet the preset condition, the obtained image information can not be stored in the storages, at the moment, the storage of the image information obtained from the image acquisition equipment can be controlled to stop, and the display screen is controlled to output corresponding third prompt information.
In an embodiment, the camera host 1000 may select the second memory from more than two memories according to a preset rule.
