Abstract

The invention relates to a dual-lens video camera for day/night identification having a monitoring video camera and two sets of image capture devices; in which the video camera body has a relative basic function device of a monitor video camera including an image data input unit e.g. a CCD data input unit, an image compression unit and/or a memory device unit e.g. a SD card and so on. The two sets of image capture devices includes a colour image capture device and a monochrome image capture device which respectively have a lens and corresponding colour and monochrome image sensors e.g. CCD. Moreover, the two sets of image capture devices can capture and combine images at once into an image data by the basic function device or one of the image capture devices can be auto changed-over and selected. For example, the colour image capture device is used in the daytime or while the illumination (lux) is enough and the monochrome image capture device is auto changed-over to capture the image in the nighttime or while the illumination is not enough. Hence the image with best definition can then be captured. A set of basic function device in the video camera body can be used to achieve the use function of the monitor video camera. By the invention, a single monitor video camera body can be utilized to capture the best image in the different illumination to obtain the multiplicative effect of the best identification in daytime and nighttime so that the monitoring quality and efficiency can then be enhanced. The problems of large body size and high cost form the installation of two sets of colour and monochrome monitor video cameras can also be eliminated.
