Abstract

The disclosure relates to a system and method for maintaining alignment of a point-of-view (POV) in a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera. The method includes determining an initial orientation of the PTZ camera by obtaining position information of the camera, time synchronization data, and information of at least one predefined reference point. Upon detecting a positional deviation from the initial orientation, the method captures a reference image of the predefined reference point using the PTZ camera's pan-tilt-zoom controls. Based on the captured reference image and the predefined reference point, a home preset for the PTZ camera is calculated. The orientation of the PTZ camera is then recalibrated by adjusting its pan-tilt-zoom controls to restore alignment to the calculated home preset. The disclosed method ensures consistent camera POV alignment, particularly in outdoor environments where disturbances may occur.
