Surveillance camera, system having a surveillance camera and method for operating a surveillance camera

1. A surveillance camera, comprising:

an optical sensor;

an actuation drive which is configured to adjust a viewing field of the optical sensor in such a manner that the viewing field can be adjusted respectively at least into a surveillance range and an inactive range which is at least partially spatially disjoint from the surveillance range;

wherein the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field in accordance with an external actuation signal between the surveillance range and the inactive range; and

wherein a position of the actuation drive for detecting the surveillance range and a position of the actuation drive for detecting the inactive range can be parameterised by a user.

2. The surveillance camera of claim 1 , wherein the surveillance camera has a sensor which directly detects the external actuation signal.

3. The surveillance camera of claim 2 , wherein the receiving means are configured for receiving signals of a home automation system.

4. The surveillance camera of claim 1 , wherein the surveillance camera has receiving means which receive the external actuation signal from a computer which is spatially separated from the surveillance camera.

5. The surveillance camera of claim 1 , wherein the receiving means are configured to communicate via an IP protocol.

6. The surveillance camera of claim 1 , wherein the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the surveillance range in accordance with a first external actuation signal and in that the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the inactive range in accordance with a second external actuation signal which is different from the first actuation signal.

7. The surveillance camera of claim 1 , wherein the signalling means optically and/or acoustically signal an activation of the actuation drive in response to the actuation signal.

8. A system, comprising:

a surveillance camera according to claim 1 ; and

a central control unit;

wherein the central control unit is configured to receive sensor signals from at least one sensor;

wherein the central control unit is configured to associate at least one of the sensor signals with an actuation signal for the surveillance camera;

wherein the central control unit transmits the respective actuation signal to the surveillance camera in accordance with the association when receiving a sensor signal of at least one sensor; and

wherein a position of the actuation drive for detecting the surveillance range and a position of the actuation drive for detecting the inactive range can be parameterised by a user.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein at least a first actuation signal for controlling the actuation drive is configured in such a manner that the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the surveillance range and/or in that at least a second actuation signal for controlling the actuation drive is configured in such a manner that the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the inactive range.

10. A system, comprising:

a surveillance camera, comprising:

an optical sensor;

an actuation drive which is configured to adjust a viewing field of the optical sensor in such a manner that the viewing field can be adjusted respectively at least into a surveillance range and an inactive range which is at least partially spatially disjoint from the surveillance range;

wherein the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field in accordance with an external actuation signal between the surveillance range and the inactive range; and

wherein a position of the actuation drive for detecting the surveillance range and a position of the actuation drive for detecting the inactive range can be parameterised by a user; and

a central control unit;

wherein the central control unit is configured to receive sensor signals from at least one sensor;

wherein the central control unit is configured to associate at least one of the sensor signals with an actuation signal for the surveillance camera;

wherein the central control unit transmits the respective actuation signal to the surveillance camera in accordance with the association when receiving a sensor signal of at least one sensor; and

wherein a position of the actuation drive for detecting the surveillance range and a position of the actuation drive for detecting the inactive range can be parameterised by a user;

wherein a sensor signal which signals an arming of an alarm system is associated with an actuation signal and in that in accordance with this actuation signal the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the surveillance range and/or in that a sensor signal which signals a disarming of an alarm system is associated with an actuation signal and in that in accordance with this actuation signal the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the inactive range and/or in that a sensor signal which signals an absence recognition is associated with an actuation signal, and in that in accordance with this actuation signal the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the surveillance range and/or in that a sensor signal which signals a presence recognition is associated with an actuation signal and in that in accordance with this actuation signal the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the inactive range.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein a position recognition in accordance with a recognised coordinate of an end user device and a comparison of the recognised coordinate with a coordinate range outputs a sensor signal and in that this sensor signal is associated with an actuation signal in which the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field into the surveillance range.

12. The system of claim 8 , wherein a mobile end user device is configured to enable an association of a sensor signal with an actuation signal and/or a mobile end user device is configured to enable a definition of the surveillance range and the inactive range.

13. A method for operating a surveillance camera, comprising:

adjusting a viewing field of an optical sensor of the surveillance camera in such a manner that the viewing field is adjusted respectively at least into a surveillance range and an inactive range which is at least partially spatially disjoint from the surveillance range;

wherein, in accordance with an external actuation signal, the viewing field is adjusted between the surveillance range and the inactive range; and

wherein a position of the actuation drive for detecting the surveillance range and a position of the actuation drive for detecting the inactive range can be parameterised by a user.
