The ultrasonic method is a method of transmitting ultrasound with sharp direction to the object to be measured and measuring the time until the reflected wave from the object is received to find the distance. A piezoelectric element can be used as the receiving sensor.

In addition, the distance sensor unit 150 may measure a relative distance, which indicates a distance between the camera 100 and an object positioned in the same direction as the photographing unit 115.

The illuminance sensor unit 155 can measure the amount of light irradiated to the photographing unit 115. If the photosensitivity of the sensor is significantly different from the visibility, the illuminance correction filter can be added to the sensor or the measured value can be corrected by the correction coefficient. As the illuminance sensor, various kinds of photovoltaic cells can be used, but a phototube can also be used for the measurement of very low illuminance.

The mount hole 190 is located under the camera 100 and can be male and female combined with a mount that supports the camera 100 to be fixed.

The controller 105 includes a battery sensor unit for measuring the remaining battery power and a temperature sensor unit for measuring the internal temperature of the camera 100. When the remaining battery power is less than a threshold value, The streaming period may be changed from the first period to the second period when the communication speed corresponds to at least one of a threshold value and a communication speed lower than a threshold value. In this case, the second period is longer than the first period.

Accordingly, the streaming cycle is lengthened to reduce the battery consumption, so that the speed at which the battery is consumed can be decreased or the internal temperature of the camera 100 can be lowered.

In addition, the camera 100 may further include a face recognition unit for recognizing a face of a person in the photographed image.

When the user selects the mosaic mode and receives a selection of a face of a specific person from the photographed image, the control unit 105 registers the selected specific person as a first person, and selects a person other than the first person And then streamed to the server through the transmission / reception unit.

In recent years, problems such as infringement of privacy rights and infringement of privacy have appeared when uploading pictures and images to a place where many third parties can view such as SNS and Youtube.

Accordingly, the above-described problems can be solved by streaming only the face received from the user without mosaic, and mosaicing the face of the other persons and streaming the same.

In one embodiment, the camera 100 further includes a motion recognition unit 190 for recognizing the motion of the user.

When the first motion of the user is recognized, the motion recognition unit 190 switches to the photographing mode. When the second motion is recognized in the photographing mode, the motion recognition unit 190 switches to the timer photographing mode. When the third motion is recognized in the timer photographing mode, A timer can be set according to the type of the third motion, and a picture can be taken after the timer.

By recognizing the motions sequentially promised as above, the user can set the timer and photograph the camera 100 only by recognizing the motion after the camera 100 is located as far as the tripod.

At this time, each motion is stored in advance, or the user can set each motion. For example, in the case of the third motion, a motion indicating a number can be set.

When the fourth motion of the user is recognized, the control unit 105 of the camera 100 uploads the image photographed using the third motion to the SNS account of the user set in the control unit 105. [

In one embodiment, the camera 100 may correct the photographed image through the reference line of the camera 100 using the shake correction mode.

More specifically, when the first shake correction mode is selected, the control unit 105 recognizes the user's face on the photographed image and extracts the user's eyes, nose, and lips. And adjusts the angle of the image so that the angle of the first reference line is maintained in the image photographed through the photographing unit 115.

For example, even if the camera 100 is fixed by combining the mount and the mount hole provided on the bicycle, the image is shaken as the bicycle and the user's body shake.

Therefore, by selecting the shake correction mode, the first reference line from the forehead to the center of the nose and lips is set in the user's face of the shot image, and the image is corrected so that the angle of the first reference line is maintained, .

More specifically, when the second shake correction mode is selected, a second reference line connecting both eyes of the user is set in the current photographic image, and an image photographed through the photographing unit 115 is referred to as a first reference line and a second reference line The angle of the image is corrected so that the angle of the reference line is maintained.

In addition, when the user inputs a broadcast mode from the user, the camera 100 transmits the image received from the camera 100 to a broadcast platform on which the server is linked.

For example, when the server receives a broadcast mode from a user, the server can transmit a broadcast to a broadcast platform such as Youtube linked to the server.

In addition, when the communication state between the camera 100, the server or the server and the broadcasting platform is poor, the server requests advertisement transmission to the broadcasting platform.

For example, the communication state between the camera 100 and the server may be poor due to the specific circumstances, and the communication state between the server and the broadcasting platform may be poor. In this case, even if the broadcasting is transmitted, . Therefore, the server can send the prepared advertisement image instead of broadcasting the shot image.

The camera 100 further includes a motion recognition unit 190 for recognizing the motion of the user. When the fifth motion of the user is recognized, the photographed image until the sixth motion of the user is recognized is highlighted to the server To be saved as an image.

When the communication state between the camera 100 and the server or the server and the broadcasting platform is poor, the highlight image is transmitted to the broadcasting platform, and the highlight image is broadcast until the communication state is normalized.

When a user goes outdoors and shoots and broadcasts them on a broadcasting platform, a communication state is often poor due to various reasons. At this time, when proper broadcasting is not performed, it may occur that the viewers go to another broadcasting or terminate the broadcasting.

In order to solve such a problem, the above configuration easily records a highlight image through the fifth motion and the sixth motion from the user and stores the highlight image on the server.

In addition, when a communication failure phenomenon occurs, an advertisement may be transmitted to a broadcasting platform, or a highlight image selected and stored from a user may be transmitted so that viewers can watch a highlight image until the communication state is normalized It is effective.
