    Abstract: A method of rotating a surveillance camera having an acceleration sensor and being controllable by a processor to maintain a tilt-angle to conform to a command tilt-angle, includes the steps of moving the surveillance camera tilt to a predetermined command tilt-angle in response to a signal from the processor; periodically calculating estimated tilt-angles by using acceleration values in at least one axis of an acceleration sensor; calculating a difference value between an estimated tilt-angle of a current period and an estimated tilt-angle of a previous period; and when the difference value between the estimated tilt-angles exceeds a set limit, moving the camera to another position to correct the tilt angle according to the difference calculate.
