Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure provide an object detection method and device. The method includes: in response to a first object detection circuit determining that a moving object exists in an environment, activating a second object detection circuit to detect whether the moving object actually exists in the environment, wherein a power consumption of the first object detection circuit is lower than a power consumption of the second object detection circuit; in response to the second object detection circuit determining that the moving object actually exists in the environment, activating an image capturing circuit, and capturing an environmental image corresponding to the environment by using the image capturing circuit.
Claims14
An object detection method, comprising:
- in response to a first object detection circuit determining that a moving object exists in an environment, activating a second object detection circuit to detect whether the moving object actually exists in the environment, wherein a power consumption of the first object detection circuit is lower than a power consumption of the second object detection circuit;
- and
- in response to the second object detection circuit determining that the moving object actually exists in the environment, activating an image capturing circuit, and capturing an environmental image corresponding to the environment by using the image capturing circuit.
An object detection device, comprising:
- a first object detection circuit;
- a second object detection circuit;
- an image capturing circuit;
- and
- a processor, coupled to the first object detection circuit, the second object detection circuit, and the image capturing circuit, and configured to:
- in response to the first object detection circuit determining that a moving object exists in an environment, activate the second object detection circuit to detect whether the moving object actually exists in the environment, wherein a power consumption of the first object detection circuit is lower than a power consumption of the second object detection circuit;
- and
- in response to the second object detection circuit determining that the moving object actually exists in the environment, activate an image capturing circuit, and capture an environmental image corresponding to the environment by using the image capturing circuit.
