The first camera 1200a may be used to collect face information, eye iris information, and the like of a driver, that is, a driver, so that the analyzer can analyze the behavior of the driver according to the image information of the driver. In specific implementation, the analyzer may extract biological features of the driver, such as iris features, from the driver information based on the image information acquired by the first camera device 1200a, analyze the closed state of the eyes of the driver based on the iris features, compare the closed state of the eyes with a preset fatigue standard, generate an early warning signal if the closed state of the eyes reaches a fatigue identification, that is, if the analysis result meets a preset condition, and send a prompt according to the early warning signal. Of course, the implementation manner of processing and analyzing the received driver information by the analyzer is not limited thereto, and this embodiment is only an example, and is not limited thereto.

In addition, the analyzer may determine the blinking frequency of the driver based on the image information collected by the first camera device 1200a, determine whether the driver is speaking and/or yawning and/or heads down and/or side looking left and right, etc., and thereby determine whether the driver is driving fatigue, i.e., in a driving fatigue state; the controller can determine the driving fatigue phenomena such as drowsiness and the like of the driver in the eye opening state through the iris driver information collected by the camera assembly.

Thus, when determining that the driver is fatigue-driven, the vehicle 2000 can timely remind the driver and passengers in the vehicle and timely adopt corresponding measures, thereby reducing traffic accidents caused by fatigue-driven. Of course, the analyzer can determine whether the driver is attentive to driving according to the image information of the driver, and the vehicle 2000 can prompt the driver and passengers in the vehicle in time when determining that the driver is not attentive to driving.

In addition, the analyzer can also perform identity verification and/or driving qualification verification on the driver according to the driver image information acquired by the first camera device 1200 a. Taking driving qualification verification as an example: the analyzer may determine whether the driver is qualified according to the driver image information collected by the first camera device 1200a, such as through a business certification or having a driving qualification.

The first camera 1200a may be one, and the first camera 1200a may be disposed at a position in the vehicle where it is convenient to collect driver information, such as a driving area 2000a in the vehicle body.

When the camera assembly 1210 rotates to a predetermined angle relative to the mounting seat 1230, that is, when the mounting portion 1211 of the camera assembly 1210 rotates to a predetermined position relative to the mating portion 1231 of the mounting seat 1230, that is, rotates to a position where the photographing effect of the camera can be ensured, for example, when the mounting portion 1211 of the camera assembly 1210 rotates to a position where the iris information of the face and/or eyes of the driver can be clearly obtained, the locking member 1220 is further required to fix the mounting portion 1211 of the camera assembly 1210 and the mating portion 1231 of the mounting seat 1230, so as to reliably maintain the camera at the predetermined position, so that the camera cannot shake due to the vibration of the vehicle, and the photographing effect of the camera can be further ensured.

Alternatively, one of the mounting portion 1211 and the mating portion 1231 includes a sphere 1211a, and the other includes a groove 1231a, i.e., the mounting portion 1211 and the mating portion 1231 may form a spherical hinge, such that the mounting portion 1211 can rotate in any direction relative to the mating portion 1231.

In an alternative implementation manner of the present embodiment, the mounting portion 1211 of the camera assembly 1210 includes a ball 1211a, the fitting portion 1231 of the mounting seat 1230 includes a groove 1231a, and the ball 1211a is freely and rotatably mounted in the groove 1231 a; the locking member 1220 is movably coupled to the mounting seat 1230.

In some examples, at least a portion of the groove wall of the groove 1231a may be a tapered surface or a stepped surface, and an inner diameter of an upper end of the tapered surface or the stepped surface is greater than an inner diameter of a lower end. For example, the groove 1231a may include a cylindrical section and a conical section, such that a groove surface corresponding to the cylindrical section is a cylindrical surface, and a groove wall corresponding to the conical section is a conical surface; the cylindrical section is located at the upper end of the conical section, the conical section is in transitional connection with the cylindrical section, the inner diameter of the cylindrical section can be larger than or equal to the sphere diameter of the sphere 1211a, so that the sphere 1211a can rotate in the groove 1231a, and the inner diameter of the conical section is gradually reduced from top to bottom. In this example, the tapered surface or stepped surface of the groove 1231a may form a second fixing surface for fixing the lower end of the ball 1211 a.

In other examples, at least a portion of the walls of the groove 1231a may be a first spherical surface that fits the ball 1211a, such that the ball 1211a may freely rotate within the groove 1231 a. Illustratively, the groove 1231a may be a hemispherical groove. For example, the groove 1231a may further include a spherical section and a cylindrical section, and a groove wall of the spherical section is a first spherical surface; the cylindrical section may be located at an upper end of the spherical section, the cylindrical section and the spherical section may be in smooth transition, an inner diameter of the cylindrical section may be greater than or equal to a spherical diameter of the sphere 1211a, so that the sphere 1211a can rotate in the groove 1231a, and the spherical diameter of the spherical section may be adapted to the spherical diameter of the sphere 1211 a. In this example, the groove 1231a may form a second fixing surface at the first spherical surface for fixing the lower end of the sphere 1211a, and the second fixing surface may have a relatively large contact area with the sphere 1211a, so as to increase the friction between the groove 1231a and the sphere 1211a and improve the reliability of the fixing sphere 1211 a.

Of course, the structure of the groove 1231a is not limited thereto, and this embodiment is only exemplified here.

Alternatively, retaining member 1220 may include a securing segment 1222 and a locking segment 1221, securing segment 1222 may be located at an upper end of the locking segment, securing segment 1222 being for securing ball 1211a when retaining member 1220 is in the locked position; the locking section 1221 is adapted to be coupled to the mounting block 1230. Illustratively, retaining member 12 has receiving space 1220a, and receiving space 1220a of retaining member 12 is disposed in communication with groove 1231a to receive ball 1211 a.

Wherein at least a portion of the locking member 1220 is annular, illustratively, at least a portion of the fixing segment 1222 may be a circumferentially closed ring, and the locking segment 1221 is a plurality of open-loop structures spaced apart along the circumference of the fixing segment 1222.

In some examples, the inner wall of the fixing segment 1222 may include a second spherical surface fitted with the sphere 1211a, the second spherical surface being a portion of the spherical surface of the sphere 1211a, at least a portion of the second spherical surface may form a first fixing surface for fixing the upper end of the sphere 1211 a. When the groove wall of the groove 1231a includes the first spherical surface, and when the sphere 1211a is fixed, a certain distance may be provided between the lower end of the second spherical surface and the upper end of the first spherical surface to ensure the fixing reliability of the sphere 1211 a.

In other examples, at least a portion of the securing segment 1222 may be tapered or stepped, i.e., the inner wall of the securing segment 1222 may include a tapered surface or a stepped surface. Taking the example that the inner wall of the fixing section 1222 includes a tapered surface, the inner diameter of the tapered surface is gradually increased from top to bottom, so that when the fixing section 1222 presses the ball 1211a in the groove 1231a, the portion of the tapered surface for the ball 1211a to abut against forms a first fixing surface for fixing the ball 1211 a. Taking the example that the inner wall of the fixing section 1222 includes a step surface, the inner diameter of the upper end of the step surface is smaller than the inner diameter of the lower end of the step surface, so that when the fixing section 1222 presses the ball 1211a in the groove 1231a, the diameter of the step surface forms a first fixing surface for fixing the ball 1211 a. Of course, the structure of the fixing segment 1222 of the locking member 1220 is not limited thereto, and the embodiment is only illustrated herein.

In still other examples, the fixing segment 1222 may include a cylindrical segment, that is, the inner wall of the fixing segment 1222 may include a cylindrical surface having an inner diameter smaller than the sphere diameter of the sphere, so that when the fixing segment 1222 presses the sphere 1211a in the groove 1231a, a portion of the cylindrical surface may be against the sphere 1211a, and a portion of the cylindrical surface against the sphere 1211a forms a first fixing surface. In addition, the fixed segment 1222 may further include a spherical segment, and the inner wall of the spherical segment may be adapted to the sphere 1211 a.

In this embodiment, when the camera assembly 1210 is rotated to a predetermined position relative to the mounting seat 1230, the ball 1211a of the camera assembly 1210 can be tightly pressed into the groove 1231a of the mounting seat 1230 by the locking member 1220, that is, the ball 1211a is reliably abutted between the first fixing surface of the locking member 1220 and the second fixing surface of the groove 1231a, so as to achieve reliable fixing of the camera assembly 1210.

In some examples, the inner wall of the locking section 1221 may be provided with an internal thread, and correspondingly, the mounting seat 1230 may be provided with an external thread, so that by rotating the locking section 1221, the locking member 1220 is moved towards the camera assembly 1210 to the release position to release the ball 1211a, so that the ball 1211a can rotate freely, i.e. the camera head can be adjusted, i.e. the included angle between the axis of the camera head and the XY plane, the YZ plane and the XZ plane of the vehicle can be adjusted; locking member 1220 is also moved away from camera assembly 1210 by rotating locking segment 1221 to a locked position to lock ball 1211a, thereby securing camera assembly 1210. In this embodiment, the locking member 1220 and the mounting seat 1230 have simple structures and simple operations.

In other examples, one of the locking segment 1221 and the mounting seat 1230 is provided with a sliding block, and the other is provided with a sliding slot, and the sliding block is slidably arranged in the sliding slot; the slide block is provided with an elastic limiting bulge, the slide groove is provided with two limiting holes, and when the slide block slides in the slide groove until the limiting bulge is positioned in one of the limiting holes, the locking part 1220 can be positioned at a locking position for locking the camera assembly 1210 and the mounting seat 1230; when the sliding block slides in the sliding groove until the limiting protrusion is located in the other limiting hole, the locking member 1220 can be located at a releasing position for releasing the camera assembly 1210, and the camera assembly 1210 can freely rotate relative to the mounting seat 1230.

Take locking section 1221 of retaining member 1220 to be provided with the slider, mount pad 1230 is provided with the spout as an example: when the camera angle of the camera needs to be adjusted, the locking member 1220 can be manually driven to slide upwards, namely, the sliding block is driven to slide upwards in the sliding groove, when the limiting protrusion sliding to the sliding block is located in the limiting hole in the upper end of the sliding groove, the locking member 1220 is located at the releasing position, the camera assembly 1210 can freely rotate relative to the mounting seat 1230, and the camera angle of the camera is adjustable. After the camera angle of the camera is adjusted, the locking member 1220 can be manually driven to slide downwards, that is, the sliding block is driven to slide downwards in the sliding groove, when the limiting protrusion on the sliding block is located in the limiting hole at the lower end of the sliding groove, the locking member 1220 is located at the locking position, the fixing section 1222 of the locking member 1220 compresses the ball 1211a of the camera assembly 1210 in the groove 1231a of the mounting seat 1230, so that the camera assembly 1210 is locked with the mounting seat 1230, the camera assembly 1210 is reliably fixed, and the shooting effect of the camera is ensured.

In another alternative implementation of this embodiment, the mounting portion 1211 of the camera assembly 1210 includes a groove 1231a, the mating portion 1231 of the mounting base 1230 includes a ball 1211a, and the ball 1211a is freely and rotatably mounted in the groove 1231 a; retaining member 1220 is movably coupled to camera assembly 1210. The structures of the groove 1231a and the locking member 1220 and the implementation process thereof can be similar to those described above, and are not described herein again.

Optionally, a notch 1221a is formed at an end of the locking member 1220 facing the camera assembly 1210, and a partial sphere 1211a can be exposed from the notch 1221a to allow the operator to rotate the sphere 1211a to adjust the camera angle. Illustratively, retaining segment 1221 of retaining member 1220 is provided with a notch 1221 a.

Optionally, a plurality of convex teeth 1222a extending along the axial direction of the locking member 1220 are disposed on the outer wall of the locking member 1220 to increase the friction between the operator and the locking member 1220, so as to prevent the operator from slipping between the operator and the locking member 1220, so as to facilitate the movement of the locking member 1220, and facilitate the operator to move the locking member 1220 to switch between the locking position and the releasing position. The convex teeth 1222a are spaced apart from each other to improve the operation experience of the operator. The portion of the locking member 1220 where the protrusion 1222a is disposed, i.e., the area, forms an adjusting knob of the camera device 1200, and the operator can control the locking member 1220 to switch between the locking position and the releasing position by operating the adjusting knob.

Optionally, a buffer member may be disposed in the locking member 1220 and abuts between the first fixing surface and the ball 1211a to reduce the wear between the ball 1211a and the first fixing surface. For example, the buffering member may be made of an elastic material, and when the ball 1211a is fixed, the ball 1211a may push against the buffering member toward the first fixing surface to deform and store a certain elastic potential energy, and under the elastic potential energy of the buffering member, the buffering member may be in close contact with the ball 1211a to ensure the fixing reliability of the ball 1211 a.

In addition, in some examples, the camera 1200 may further have a communication interface for communicating with an analyzer, a vehicle central control system, and the like; alternatively, the camera device 1200 may further be provided with a wireless communication module, and the camera device 1200 may further be connected to an analyzer, a vehicle central control system, and the like through the wireless communication module.

In some examples, a battery assembly may also be disposed in the camera device 1200 to provide power to the camera device 1200. The image pickup device 1200 may also be provided with a power interface to connect with an external power source to supply power to the image pickup device 1200 or to charge a battery pack in the image pickup device 1200.
