Development Scope
Device and interface access
Integrate the camera, wake-up input, solar charging and power detection, and design the working sequence of camera power-on, shooting, compression and communication.
Product business functions
Develop camera power control, wake-up capture, image compression, scheduled or event upload, power monitoring and offline storage.
Platform and data connection
Combined with the business link of image collection → encoding or local inference → video recording and evidence caching → 4G → video or event platform, the device identity, data fields, update time, abnormal status and result confirmation method are defined.
Exception handling and operational constraints
Image upload and continuous video have different power consumption and traffic conditions; nighttime fill light, event frequency, and no-network retry need to be included in the energy consumption budget.
Data and Operational Workflow
Wake up by timer or event → capture and save locally → 4G picture upload → result confirmation → enter sleep.
The device side, communication side and platform side retain necessary status and logs respectively. Project integration testing is checked with actual equipment data and execution results, and network connection status and business completion status are recorded separately.
Project Inputs
- Existing device models, interface and wiring diagrams, licensing agreements, data samples and available codes.
- Business process and parameters: snapshot frequency, nighttime supplementary light, solar power supply and picture supplementary transmission.
- Target location, operator, SIM/APN, power supply, installation method and equipment size.
- Existing platform interfaces, user roles, development modules, number of prototypes and planned nodes.
Deliverables and Acceptance
| Deliverables | Delivery content | Verification method |
|---|---|---|
| product realization | Hardware design data, prototypes or existing equipment modification data involved in the project, as well as corresponding firmware and interfaces | Verify the process of waking up to a valid picture. |
| Business integration testing | Data fields, status definitions, platform adaptation procedures and business integration testing records | Test night shots, failed uploads, and duplicate events. |
| Version and test data | Target hardware and software versions, build or deployment instructions, parameter configurations and test logs | Measure the power consumption and low battery behavior of the complete capture cycle. |
First confirm the scope and key functions, then complete prototype or software development, system integration testing and stage acceptance. The acceptance conditions list the prototype, version, environment, duration and passing threshold; source code, design documents, third-party licenses, materials, traffic, cloud resources and on-site work are agreed separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can picture capture and real-time video share the same plan?+
Some acquisition and communication components can be shared, but the main controller, power supply, heat dissipation and software need to be re-evaluated based on the business. Continuous video usually changes the working duty cycle, and the battery life estimate of the capture mode cannot be directly applied.
Is it possible to delegate only part of the functions of the solar-powered image capture camera?+
The device interface, terminal program, 4G communication and platform integration testing can be split based on the existing R&D foundation. Please provide existing data and target boundaries, first check the "capture frequency, nighttime fill light, solar power supply and picture supplementary transmission", and then clarify the deliverables and interface responsibilities of each module.
How are costs and cycle time assessed?+
Split the workload based on target devices, interfaces, existing data, and verification criteria. This project focuses on checking the frequency of snapshots, nighttime fill-in light, solar power and image supplementary transmission; when prototypes, on-site integration testing or third-party platform cooperation are required, the corresponding costs, prerequisites and nodes will be listed separately.
