Bionic automatic vision and line of sight control system and method
First Claim
1. A bionic automatic vision and line of sight control system comprises:
- multiple camera sets, wherein each camera set comprises multiple parallel cameras;
a base where the camera sets are mounted;
multiple actuators which enable each camera set to rotate in three degrees of freedom relative to the base;
multiple transducers for detecting the rotation angle and speed of the actuators; and
a central controller which processes the signals from the camera sets and the transducers, and controls the rotation of the actuators and sends results from processing signals and other information to peripheral equipments.

Abstract
The present invention presents a bionic automatic vision and line of sight control system and method, wherein the system comprises multiple camera sets, wherein each camera set comprises one or more parallel camera with different shooting range, wherein each camera set is driven by one or three actuators, capable of rotating in two or three degree of freedom. The present system is capable of fast object positioning, high accuracy tracking and wide range compensation for line of sight deviation caused by the movement of the system. More specifically, the system can ensure two camera sets to position and track the same object at the same time. The present system not only can be used in various fixed places to monitor, protect and care taking, it can also be installed on various moving objects, such as cars, airplanes, boats, military equipments, and it can be used as eyes for various types of robots.
