Detailed Description
To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention.
At present, in view of the problem that the existing pan/tilt camera has low image processing efficiency, to improve the problem, the embodiments of the present invention provide a pan/tilt camera, a camera control method, and a storage medium, which can be applied to improve the image processing efficiency of the pan/tilt camera. The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail.
The first embodiment is as follows:
an embodiment of the present invention provides a pan/tilt/zoom camera, referring to a schematic structural diagram of the pan/tilt/zoom camera shown in fig. 1, the pan/tilt/zoom camera includes: a main camera 11, a sub-camera 12, a main processor 13, and a sub-processor 14. The main camera is in communication connection with the main processor, and the auxiliary camera is in communication connection with the auxiliary processor.
The main camera and the auxiliary camera are used for synchronously acquiring images. This cloud platform camera also can be handheld cloud platform camera, see as the cloud platform camera structure sketch map that fig. 2 shows, main camera and vice camera all set up on cloud platform camera's the structure of increasing steady 21 to can be under this structure of increasing steady drive synchronous motion, thereby can gather the image in step. The main camera and the auxiliary camera can be two cameras which are transversely distributed in parallel, and can also be two cameras which are longitudinally distributed (as shown in figure 2), and the distance between the main camera and the auxiliary camera can be set according to the actual size of the pan-tilt camera.
The main processor is used for acquiring the image acquired by the main camera and performing first processing operation on the image acquired by the main camera. The auxiliary processor is used for acquiring the image acquired by the auxiliary camera and performing second processing operation on the image acquired by the auxiliary camera; the first processing operation and the second processing operation are the same or different.
When the first processing operation is the same as the second processing operation, the main processor and the auxiliary processor execute the same operation, and the accuracy of the image processing of the pan-tilt camera can be improved. For example, when the processing operation is target recognition, if the target recognition result of the main processor for the image collected by the main camera is the same as the target recognition result of the auxiliary processor for the image collected by the auxiliary camera, it is determined that the target recognition result obtained by the pan-tilt camera is correct, and the target recognition result is displayed to the user through the display screen.
When the first processing operation is different from the second processing operation, the main processor and the auxiliary processor are used for respectively executing different processing operations, so that the image processing speed of the pan-tilt camera can be reduced, and the image processing efficiency is improved. For example, when the pan-tilt camera needs to beautify the acquired image and identify a target person, the main processor can beautify the image acquired by the main camera, the auxiliary processor can identify the person in the image acquired by the auxiliary camera, the image acquired by the main camera after the beautification processing is displayed by the display screen, and the person identification result obtained by the auxiliary processor is marked in the image.
The above-mentioned cloud platform camera that this embodiment provided uses two cameras to gather the image in step to utilize the image that main processor handled main camera and shot, utilize the image that vice camera was gathered to vice treater processing, main processor and vice treater divide the work of doing, make cloud platform camera can carry out multiple image processing work simultaneously, promoted cloud platform camera's image processing efficiency.
In order to enable the pan-tilt camera to output high-quality images, the lens parameters of the main camera in the embodiment are better than those of the auxiliary camera (i.e. comprise a high-definition camera), wherein the lens parameters comprise at least one of resolution, definition and aperture. The pan/tilt/zoom camera provided by the embodiment further comprises a pan/tilt controller. And the secondary processor is also used for sending a control signal to the holder controller according to the processing result of the second processing operation so as to enable the holder controller to control the holder to track the target. Because the main camera is a high-definition camera (the main camera can be used for beautifying, filtering, 4k60fps, large aperture and ultra-wide-angle shooting), the quality of shot images is high, but high-definition images occupy a large memory, and more resources are occupied when the high-definition images are processed, the auxiliary processor is used for processing the images collected by the auxiliary camera (the parameters of the auxiliary camera, such as visual angle, resolution, wide angle, aperture and the like, are inferior to those of the main camera, and the main function of the main camera is to provide image data for object feature recognition and algorithm processing, so that the complexity of data calculation is reduced, the data calculation speed is increased), and the holder is controlled to perform target tracking according to the image processing result, so that the image processing efficiency can be improved, and the stability of target tracking of the holder camera is improved. The auxiliary processor can also perform holder anti-shake control according to a processing result obtained by processing the image acquired by the auxiliary camera, so that the holder camera outputs a clear high-definition image.
In order to improve the image processing efficiency of the pan-tilt-zoom camera, the first processing operation includes one or more of whitening, rendering, adding special effects, delaying photographing, and slow motion processing. The second processing operation includes one or more of object recognition, motion recognition, scene recognition, depth information acquisition, and velocity information acquisition. Because the main camera is a high-definition camera, the acquired high-definition images occupy larger computing resources, and the first processing operation can be processing operation with lower computing difficulty, such as whitening, rendering, special effect increasing, delayed photography, slow motion processing and the like, so as to shorten the time for image processing. The auxiliary camera is a low-resolution camera, and the acquired images occupy less computing resources and can be used for image processing with high computing difficulty, such as target recognition, action recognition, scene recognition, depth information acquisition, speed information acquisition and the like. By separating the functions of the main camera and the auxiliary camera, the main camera is used for outputting high-definition image data, the auxiliary camera is used for collecting image data, and the processor identifies and operates according to the image data of the auxiliary camera, so that the operation efficiency is improved.
In a specific implementation manner, referring to the schematic structural diagram of the pan/tilt/zoom camera shown in fig. 3, the pan/tilt/zoom camera further includes a display screen 31, where the display screen 31 is configured to acquire an image captured by the main camera and display the image captured by the main camera, and in order to improve convenience of use of a user, the display screen further has a touch function to receive an operation instruction of the user. The high-definition image acquired by the main camera is displayed to a user, so that the pan-tilt camera can output high-quality image data; the low-resolution images acquired by the auxiliary camera are subjected to image processing by using the auxiliary processor, so that the calculation complexity of image processing is reduced, the data processing efficiency is improved, and the user experience is further improved.
In order to improve the convenience of using the pan/tilt/zoom camera, the sub-processor provided in this embodiment is a detachable processor, wherein the main processor is further in communication connection with the sub-camera. And the main processor is also used for acquiring the image acquired by the auxiliary camera when the auxiliary processor is not detected, and performing second processing operation on the image acquired by the auxiliary camera. In order to save the material cost and the power consumption of the pan-tilt camera, the secondary processor can be disassembled and assembled and can also be used as an independent processor, and the disassembling and assembling mode can comprise various installing modes, such as plug installation, buckle control and the like. When the secondary processor is damaged, the pan-tilt camera can also replace other secondary processors without faults. When the cradle head camera is not provided with the secondary processor, the main processor can replace the secondary processor to work, acquire the image acquired by the secondary camera and perform second processing operation on the image acquired by the secondary camera. Therefore, the cloud platform camera is more flexible to use, and the convenience of use of a user is improved.
In order to further promote the use convenience of cloud platform camera, the cloud platform camera that this embodiment provided still includes: a first socket that mates with a first plug of the secondary processor. Wherein the secondary processor comprises a mobile terminal. In order to facilitate the user to detach the sub-processor, a first slot may be provided in the pan/tilt camera, so that the first plug of the sub-processor is inserted into the first slot, thereby communicating with the main camera and the sub-camera. In practical use, a commonly used mobile terminal can also be used as a secondary processor, when the data processing speed of the mobile terminal is higher than that of the main processor, the mobile terminal can be used for processing images acquired by the main camera, and the image processing efficiency is improved while the material cost is saved.
In order to improve the resource utilization rate, the main processor and the sub-processor provided in this embodiment are both DSP processors, and the sub-processor is a processor whose processor parameters can be changed and upgraded, where the processor parameters include a main frequency, an external frequency, and a cache. The subprocessor is a processor capable of upgrading system parameters, when the computing resources of the subprocessor are small or when the processor technology is improved, the processor parameters of the subprocessor can be upgraded, the computing speed of the subprocessor is improved, the subprocessor can process data computation with higher difficulty, and the utilization rate of hardware resources is improved.
When the processor parameters of the secondary processor are upgraded, the secondary processor is also in communication connection with the main camera in the embodiment, considering that the computing speed of the secondary processor may be better than that of the main processor. The main processor is further used for acquiring processor parameters of the auxiliary processor when the auxiliary processor is detected to be inserted into the first slot, and distributing operation tasks to the main processor and the auxiliary processor according to the processor parameters of the main processor and the processor parameters of the auxiliary processor. Wherein, the main processor and the auxiliary processor carry processor parameters; the operation tasks comprise a first task of processing the images collected by the main camera and a second task of processing the images collected by the auxiliary camera. And determining the processor with higher calculation speed by comparing the processor parameters of the main processor and the auxiliary processor, and distributing the operation task with higher calculation difficulty to the processor with higher calculation speed. For example, when the processor parameter of the sub-processor is better than the processing parameter of the main processor, the difficulty level of the first task and the second task is judged, when the calculation difficulty level of the first task is higher than the calculation difficulty level of the second task, the first task can be distributed to the sub-processor, and the second task can be distributed to the main processor, namely the sub-processor carries out image processing on the image collected by the main camera to execute the first task; and enabling the main processor to perform image processing on the image acquired by the auxiliary camera so as to execute a second task.
