A CCTV Lens Robot with Four DOFs for Object Searching

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nowadays CCTV surveillance system can be seen everywhere in our cities[. The limited monitoring range is the main problem for its application. Although some of the monitoring unit bracket allows the camera to search within a certain range, its huge size severely limits its use in some conditions. For example, it is not appropriate to apply in a small space[. Considering this, we design a small space rotating device which can make the camera rotate around the X and Y about 40 degrees respectively. Experiments show that the CCTV rotation bracket has its features such as compact, light weighted structure and easy to control. It is suitable for application on the small size device.
