DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] A clear and complete description of technical solutions in embodiments of the present invention will be given below in combination with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. [0029] In Fig. 1 , a device for collecting and processing weather data and images includes: a weather data sensor 1 , a first processor 2, an image sensor 3, a second processing module 4, a power supply 5, a power supply control module 6 and an on/off key 7. Wherein, the weather data sensor 1 is at least one of a temperature and humidity sensor 11 , a raindrop sensor 12, an atmosphere pressure sensor 13 and an ultraviolet sensor 14, the second processor includes a triggering control module 21 and a time query module 22, the second processing module 4 includes a second processor 41 , a memory 42 and a wireless communication module 43, and the power supply 5 includes a lithium battery 51 , a charging management module 52 and a solar panel 53.
[0030] The first processor 2 is connected with the weather data sensor 2 through an I2C interface or an AD interface for collecting weather data of a measured scenario, for example, temperature and humidity, raindrop existence state, atmosphere pressure and ultraviolet intensity, and sending the collected data to the second processor 41 in the second processing module 4 through a UART interface.
[0031] The second processor 41 is connected with the memory 42, the wireless communication module 43 and the image sensor 3 through a variety of interfaces. Wherein, the image sensor 3 is used for collecting an image of the measured scenario, converting a light signal into an electric signal and transmitting the converted electric signal to the second processor 41 through a DVP interface. The memory 42 is connected with the second processor 41 through an SPI interface and is mainly used for storing an operation program of the second processor 41 . After the second processing module 4 is electrified, the second processor 41 reads the operation program from the memory 42 and loads the program to its own space, controls the image sensor 3 to collect the image and receive an electric image signal sent by the image sensor 3, processes and compresses the electric image signal, receives a weather data signal sent by the first processor 2 and synthesizes the weather data signal with the processed and compressed electric image signal. The wireless communication module 43 is connected with the second processor 41 through an SDIO interface for transmitting the synthesized data sent by the second processor 41 to a router and uploading the synthesized data to a cloud through the router, and the wireless communication module can receive data from the cloud, for example, a time interval of uploading data to the cloud at next time, and the time interval can be set according to the demand of the user. For example, 2-20 minutes for each time is set for day, and 1 -3 hours for each time is set for night for capturing the scenario changes of sunrise, sunset and sun in the sky, so as to generate weather animations with different effects at the client to improve the user experience. The wireless communication module 43 adopts a common wireless communication mode, for example, a wifi communication mode or the like. The second processor 41 , the memory 42 and the wireless communication module 43 can be interconnected by a variety of interfaces and data lines and can also be integrated on one chip to become an entire second processing module 4.
[0032] The first processor 2 generally has two working modes, namely a normal working mode and a sleep mode, and regularly changes the working mode within a certain time interval. When the first processor 2 is at the normal working mode, the first processor 2 reads data from the weather data sensor 1 ; when the first processor 2 is at the sleep mode, the first processor 2 does not read data from the weather data sensor 1 . A power supply control module 6 is arranged among the first processor 2, the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4, when the first processor 2 is at the normal working mode, the power supply control module 6 can supply power to the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4, and does not supply power to the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4 at the sleep mode. At the normal working mode, the power supply control module 6 needs to be started by a triggering mechanism to supply power to the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4. The triggering mechanism is completed by the triggering control module 21 in the first processor 2.
[0033] The triggering control module 21 is used for judging whether the weather data change reaches a specified value or whether the collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is due; when the weather data change reaches the specified value or the collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is due, the triggering control module 21 triggers the power supply control module 6 to supply power to the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4, and the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4 start working; when the weather data change does not reach the specified value or the collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is undue, the power supply control module 6 is not triggered, the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4 do not work, and the first processor 1 continues to enter the sleep mode. The manner of judging whether the weather data change reaches the specified value is as follows: the first processor 2 reads the weather data in the weather data sensor 1 , and compares the temperature and humidity or raindrop existence state read at this time with the data at last time to judge whether the specified value is reached, for example, the temperature change amplitude is larger than 1 degree or the humidity change is larger than 5%, or whether raindrop changes from non-existence to existence or whether the raindrop changes from existence to non-existence. The collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is the data upload time interval of the second processing module 4, the second processing module 4 obtains the data upload time interval from the cloud, and the data upload time interval is transmitted by the second processor 41 to the first processor 2 and is stored in the first processor 2. By adopting this working manner, the power consumption of the entire device can be reduced, meanwhile the weather data change can be collected in time, and the image of the measured scenario can be quickly captured to record the instant weather change scene.
[0034] The conversion between the normal working mode and the sleep mode is completed by the time query module 22 arranged in the first processor 2, the time query module is mainly used for querying whether the sleep time interval is due or whether the collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is due; when the sleep time interval is due, the first processor 2 enters the normal working mode and the triggering control module 21 starts working; when the sleep time interval is undue, the time query module continues to query whether the collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is due; when the collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is due, the first processor 2 enters the normal working mode and controls the power supply control module 6 to supply power to the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4, and the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4 start working; when the collection time interval of the image sensor 3 is undue, the first processor 2 continues to enter the sleep mode.
[0035] To prolong the working duration of the device for collecting and processing weather data and images and avoid the inconvenience brought by frequent change of the battery, the device of the present invention can adopt the rechargeable lithium battery 51 as the power supply, and the lithium battery 51 is connected with the solar panel 53 through the charging management module 52. The solar panel 53 can accept solar energy and convert the solar energy into electric energy to supply power to the lithium battery 51 through the charging management module 52, so as to further prolong the power supply duration of the lithium battery.
[0036] To further prolong the service life of the device for collecting and processing weather data and images and avoid turning on the power supply of the entire equipment when unnecessary, the on/off key is arranged among the power supply 5, the weather data sensor 1 and the first processor 2 for controlling the on/off of the power supply of the entire equipment. After the on/off key is turned on, the weather data sensor 1 and the first processor 2 are started, the first processor 2 immediately enters the first upload time interval, namely the power supply control module 6 starts the image sensor 3 and the second processing module 4, collects the image of the measured scenario, synthesizes the image with the weather data and uploads the synthesized image and weather data to the could.
