Abstract :
This paper presents the image sensor unit for rescue devices. The image sensor device equips with the sensor to measure the direction of gravity for stabilizing the acquired image according posture of the camera, with memories for storing acquired image and also with for implanting the function to rotate the image. The advantage of the proposed image sensor unit is also explained comparing the conventional approach
