Abstract
A camera device's exposure to sunlight may be monitored. The sun exposure may be used to predict a solar event associated with the camera device, such as a critical temperature, a brightness level, or an angle of sunlight. Prior to occurrence of the solar event, one or more functions of the camera device may be enabled or disabled. For example, a cooling function of the camera device may be enabled or a characteristic of video streamed by the camera device may be modified. The function may be re-enabled or re-disabled after the solar event.
