Description

Integrated system for handheld network video and video management and background management software

The invention is an integrated system, comprising a front-end handheld network video and audio recording device that is easy to carry and can capture video and audio information at any time, and transmits the Internet to the background management software, so the front-end palm-type network video and audio recording device is designed as a minimum module. Low power, and the use of high-reliability micro-safety digital cards for local storage, and the use of mobile broadband third-generation instant transmission, and then use the background integration software to manage all key information, to achieve the best advantage of monitoring far-reaching.

The traditional network video and audio recording system, because of the hard disk device, coupled with high power consumption, often requires a heat sink, often designed to be large, heavy and inconvenient to carry. Generally, the minimum size is 20.1 cm long, width: 13.4 cm, height: 10.5 cm, total weight is about 1.8 kg, and there is no action broadband third-generation Internet access function, such as a plant type fixed and limited range of local tasks. The demand for monitoring has evolved with the social situation and has become more sophisticated. It is highly mobile and can be used as a portable device for long-term configuration by general staff. It can be controlled by the monitoring device without being affected by time and place, and can automatically transmit the latest video and audio information at any time. It is not a traditional network video recording system. , become an important technology to break through. When such mobile audio-visual devices begin to be arranged and perform reconnaissance tasks, there is often no integrated back-end management software, which makes the scale of the application unable to expand, and is not flexible and diversified. Each front-end device, like an island-like task, timely analysis, judgment, decision-making and the monitoring advantage of taking countermeasures is lost, can play a limited effect, can not be large, and the real-time situation of the large-area coverage. Because of these limitations, current products and technologies are clearly focused on the development of personal, non-professional and non-critical important functions, the rapid growth of the monitoring industry, and the lack of a large number of applications.

In order to overcome the weakness of the traditional network video recording system and the lack of background software management, the present invention is an entire system, including a front-end high-definition mobile video and audio monitoring information collecting device, which is a palm-type network video and audio recording device. The modem (Modm-Modifier-Demodulator) of the Universal Serial Bus interface of the mobile broadband third-generation function uses mobile broadband transmission and back-end software integration management. However, the user must accept the prerequisites for the action of the audio-visual device, and must be functional and not bulky and light. Achieve richer functionality under existing battery life conditions. The contents of the present invention are detailed below:

a. Small-sized handheld network video and video recording equipment

The device maintains a small volume, length x width x height is 11.9x7.4x3.2 cm, and the total weight is only 180 grams without battery. Because any portable electronic device is most convenient to carry, it must overcome the bottleneck of high-density circuit design and avoid the noise interference of high-frequency lines in hardware design.

b. High quality, high resolution image

This device can produce high-definition images without interlaced scanning and pre-processing, and the resolution can reach Full D1 (720*480), so in the application of mobile video monitoring, users can quickly and clearly see what they want. Monitor the environment, people. With H.264 compression, the full resolution of Full D1 can be achieved, while the storage space is less than 30% of the traditional technology.

c. Using the mobile broadband third generation for audio and video transmission

At present, the most difficult thing about mobile video surveillance is that the bandwidth is insufficient, so that the device can smoothly transmit images at any time and any place. The best transmission method is to use the mobile broadband third generation. This device has a universal serial bus (USB, Universal Mode Bus) interface modem (Modulator-Demodulator) for mobile broadband third-generation functions, so it can be used for any Audio and video can be transmitted at high speed with sufficient bandwidth.

d. Positioning capability with global satellite positioning system

The background integration software, through the front-end device with global satellite positioning system, can detect the determined position of the front-end device, and can fully grasp all the personnel carrying the handheld network video and video recording device, the current location, through this Information to quickly understand the situation at any location.

e. Available battery power supply, hardware, software module consumes the least power, saves electricity

The mobile device must use the battery as the power supply. The front-end handheld network video and audio recording device of this invention has low power consumption and can be connected with a 3.7V battery, and many functions can be simultaneously and continuously operated. For example, real-time image display, image data transmission, and image data storage, if all these functions are activated, there will be no restrictions that the battery cannot be used for a long time. Because the invention is in the software function of the front-end device itself, the unnecessary parts are turned off, the power consumption is reduced, and the low-power, small-sized hardware parts are selected. By increasing the line density, low power consumption can be achieved. And because of the increasing number of Internet services on the third generation of Mobile Broadband, the longer the connection time and battery life, the better. By combining low voltage operation with low quiescent current and low standby current, significant power savings can be achieved. And the software system that allows synchronous multiplexing to speed up the reaction and prolong the battery life.

f. High stability, high reliability local storage function of micro security digital card

The most portable type of mobile system is the local storage device. It is also small and lightweight. Therefore, the micro-safety digital card is the best choice. If you use a hard disk as a local storage device, you should consider the power consumption. The weight is too heavy, when the vibration is too large, the situation is unstable, and the price is high. We have strengthened the micro-safety digital card by selecting the stable micro-safety digital card and processing the software in the most stringent long-term experiment. Application reliability.
