Under this background, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of object measuring system of three-dimensional, in this system, have in use under the situation of band projector of liquid crystal light modulator and can accurately produce the gray-level light pattern.
The object measuring system that the present invention is based on the described type of beginning realizes this purpose in this wise, promptly control band projector and electron camera by control circuit, this control circuit designs in this wise, promptly during the time shutter of pattern, the pixel of photomodulator bright and dark between switch, wherein the temporal curve that switches of pixel and shooting are synchronously.
According to the present invention, come the pixel of binary ground control photomodulator by control circuit.This means that each pixel is only switched between bright and dark state.Different gray scales by during the time shutter of pattern bright and dark between switching utilize electron camera to produce.Between exposure period, the integrated light intensity of electron camera, thus draw the gray scale that is used for each pixel by bright and dark time ratio separately.
Consider that when producing gray scale attainable precision, the switching time of liquid crystal light modulator played the part of an important role in the mode of describing before.Be considered to such time switching time, promptly in the pixel of photomodulator from bright to the time dark or that spend from secretly to bright the switching time.Pixel be not suddenly from bright to dark or from secretly to its state of bright change, replace, pixel has a gradual handoff procedure.The switching time of habitual LCD element is in several milliseconds scope.The long high relatively viscosity that depends on liquid crystal switching time.This viscosity depends on environment temperature again consumingly.According to the present invention, the temporal curve of the switching of pixel is synchronous with shooting.By this mode, when producing gray scale, guaranteed good repeatability.The pixel that this repeatability is not subjected to environmental impact consumingly influences switching time.Switching by pixel and shooting synchronously, the switching curve of pixel is identical when each shooting.
Advantageously, design control circuit in one way according to the present invention, promptly each pixel of photomodulator begins to be a kind of default switching state in each shooting.This is known, promptly in the LCD photomodulator, the switching from bright to dark and from switching time secretly to bright switching may be that very big difference is arranged.Therefore, in view of the repeatability of the expection when producing gray scale, when the pixel of photomodulator is highly significant when the beginning of each shooting all is in identical default switching state (bright or dark).
According to one of object measuring system of the present invention favourable design proposal, consider the switching time of photomodulator, by control circuit according to the default gray scale condition that is used for this pixel consider the switching time of optical modulation phase be each pixel of photomodulator be identified for bright and dark between some switching time that switches.As mentioned above, draw the gray scale that is used for each pixel by bright and dark time ratio.This ratio can be put by correspondingly default switching time to be influenced.Because the light intensity that is used for each pixel during the time shutter is integrated by electron camera, therefore depend on the switching time of photomodulator based on the accurate gray scale of the gradual switching curve of described pixel.Therefore, in order when producing gray scale, to reach high as far as possible precision, when determining to put switching time, be highly significant taking into account the switching time of photomodulator.Therefore, control circuit is design in this wise advantageously, promptly each pixel of photomodulator beginning reach after the time shutter when putting switching time bright and dark between switching.Produce thus between the temporal curve of switching of pixel and the shooting according to of the present invention synchronously.
As mentioned before, depend on environmental impact, for example temperature the switching time of photomodulator.Therefore, in system according to the present invention an optical sensor that is connected with control circuit being set is highly significant, and wherein control circuit is designed to proofread and correct according to the sensor signal of optical sensor the switching time of photomodulator.Optical sensor can compare the gray scale of the light intensity of practical measurement and expection separately.Relatively can derive the switching time of photomodulator by this.Then, this switching time can be used for determining pixel switching time point the measuring process of reality be considered.
Very meaningfully, designed in this manner, promptly produced the light pattern that has transverse to the strip-type of the grey scale curve of the sinusoidal shape of strip direction by the band projector according to the control circuit of object measuring system of the present invention.By the light pattern of this type can according to triangulation away from the 3D shape of deriving object to be measured particularly well.At this, the phase place of sine-shaped grey scale curve should be variable.Can shoot with video-corder a plurality of patterns then, thereby acquisition is relevant to the clear and definite information of the 3D shape of object with out of phase.
In practice, the photomodulator according to object measurement mechanism of the present invention is so-called LCOS miniscope.The implication of LCOS is a liquid crystal on silicon.The LCOS miniscope is made of silicon system carrier, and it uses as light reflection mirror simultaneously.Thin coating with liquid crystal is on this carrier.This device covers by thin glass sheet.The LCOS miniscope can be with low relatively cost in commercial acquisition and can use with advantage according to the present invention as the product of large-scale production.
Supplementary notes, promptly in view of the time curve of the switching of pixel and shooting the synchronous principle of work and power and not relying on according to object measurement mechanism of the present invention whether during making a video recording, realize pixel from bright to dark or from secretly to bright switching.Therefore, according to the present invention, bright and dark between switching comprise that not only the switching from bright to dark also comprises from dark to bright switching.Repeatedly handoff procedure also is fine during the time shutter.
