A Safety Monitoring Image Recording System Based on CMOS Imager

摘要

CMOS image sensors now become increasingly competitive with respect to their CCD counterparts, while adding advantages such as no blooming, simpler driving requirements and the potential of on-chip integration of sensor, analogue circuitry, and digital processing functions. A safety monitoring system based on cmos imager digital camera that can record field situation when unusual circumstance happened is described in this paper. The digital camera is based on a CMOS imager (OV7120), which can output digital image data through parallel pixel data port. The system consists of a CMOS image sensor, a large capacity NAND FLASH ROM, a USB interface chip and a micro controller (AT90S8515). The structure of whole system is discussed in detail.
