1. A method for dynamically controlling shooting parameters of a camera, adapted to a tracking device, comprising:
determining a plurality of time frames, wherein the time frames comprise a plurality of first time frames, a plurality of second time frames, and a plurality of third time frames;
controlling the camera of the tracking device to shoot a first image with a first exposure parameter in each of the first time frames and accordingly performing an environment detection, wherein the step of performing the environment detection comprises:
performing the environment detection based on a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) mechanism;
controlling the camera of the tracking device to shoot a second image with a second exposure parameter in each of the second time frames and accordingly performing a first specific detection, wherein the first specific detection is used for tracking a movable object disposed with a plurality of light emitting elements, and the second exposure parameter is lower than the first exposure parameter; and
controlling the camera of the tracking device to shoot a third image with a third exposure parameter in each of the third time frames and accordingly performing a second specific detection, wherein the third exposure parameter is higher than the second exposure parameter, wherein the second specific detection is used for a gesture detection.
