Below by embodiment, the invention will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Embodiment
Shown in Figure 1, in true three-dimensional solid-state volume type stereo display system, display image is radiated on the display body by projecting optical engine through after the image processing module.Display body is made up of the multilayer liquid crystal light valve, and such as 20 layers, when liquid crystal light valve was in scattering state, the image of projecting optical engine outgoing can imaging on this layer liquid crystal light valve.
Fig. 2 is the projecting optical engine structural representation that is used for true three-dimensional solid-state volume type stereo display system of the present invention.Present embodiment sets gradually projection light source 1, has each colour wheel of two sections 2 of red, green, blue colour disk, square rod 3, relay system 4, photomodulator DMD5, projection lens 6 and folded optical path 7 on the light path of projecting optical engine.The light focusing that projection light source 1 is sent is on colour wheel 2 surfaces.When colour wheel 2 high speed rotating, the colour disk that light sees through colour wheel 2 surfaces produces red, green, blue streak line.Red, green, blue streak line by colour wheel 2 enter square rod 3 in proper order.Square rod 3 can be solid glass bar, also can be the double glazing rod of the reflecting glass composition of interior plating highly reflecting films.Light is repeatedly reflection in square rod 3, forms the uniform light spots of rectangle at square rod 3 other ends.Hot spot is radiated on the photomodulator DMD5 by relay system 4, is penetrated by projection lens 6 then, and the emergent ray of projection lens 6 is imaged on the liquid crystal light valve that is in scattering states in the display body 8 through folded optical path 7.
Because light need enter human eye by the multilayer liquid crystal light valve, the transmitance when liquid crystal light valve is in transmission state has determined the final brightness that human eye is experienced.Transmitance when the liquid crystal light valve transmission state is 75%, when display body is made up of 20 layers of liquid crystal light valve, the light that the transmission display body finally arrives human eye has only 0.317% of projecting optical engine emergent ray.In order to produce enough brightness, the light that projection light source is sent need have enough luminous fluxes.The brightness of display screen was at least 120cd/m when as a rule, human eye watched display screen to feel comfortable 2When screen size is 10 inches, it is 75% that liquid crystal light valve sees through the attitude transmitance, and the folded optical path reflectance of reflector is 90%, and light engine efficient is 20% o'clock, and the total light flux that projection light source is sent is at least 9200lm.
Projection light source can adopt LED or ultrahigh pressure mercury lamp UHP or SHP.
Employing LED shown in Figure 3 is as projection light source.The white LED light source 11 that is arranged is arranged on the bottom of reflection cavity 12, at the front end of reflection cavity 12 condenser lens 13 is set, and colour wheel 2 is positioned on the focal position of condenser lens 13.For satisfying the requirement of luminous flux,, need 100 (10 * 10) above large power white light LED if adopt the LED of 1001m/W.
UHP or the SHP of having adopted shown in Figure 4 is as projection light source.For satisfying the requirement of luminous flux, the power of UHP or SHP should be at least more than 200W.UHP or SHP light source 14 are positioned on first focus of ellipsoid reverberation bowl 15, and colour wheel 2 is positioned on ellipsoid reverberation bowl 15 second focuses.
For fear of flicker, the refresh rate of image should be 24Hz at least.Owing to adopt monolithic DMD structure, for the display body that 20 layers of liquid crystal light valve are formed, the frequency red, green, blue colour field that just needs colour wheel to produce is 24*20=480Hz.Still the projecting optical engine that does not have at present high refresh rate like this.When adopting the colour wheel of RGBRGB6 section, colour wheel rotates a circle and can produce two red, green, blue colour fields, so just can adopt the colour wheel of 240Hz.Therefore the present invention adopts the colour wheel of RGBRGB6 section, 4 times of speed to solve the refresh rate problem.
Because the restriction of optical system structure and square rod size, usually can't be directly the exit facet of square rod 3 be directly placed on the surface of DMD, thereby need introduce relay system 4 in the back of square rod 3, and the exit facet of square rod 3 is imaged on the DMD surface, form the illumination hot spot that brightness all has.Figure 5 shows that the version of relay system, comprise relay system first lens 41, relay system second lens 42, relay system the 3rd catoptron 43 and relay system the 4th lens 44.Wherein, the comprehensive magnification of relay system first lens 41, relay system second lens 42 and relay system the 4th lens 44 is the DMD size and the ratio of square rod size; Relay system the 3rd catoptron 43 can change radiation direction, reduces system bulk.
In order to guarantee that the imaging of image on display body has certain area, need to have certain light path between projection lens and the display body.If adopt the bigger projection lens of the angle of divergence, though just can realize certain display area at short light path, but because the display body 8 that the multilayer liquid crystal light valve is formed has certain thickness, this moment, the imaging area on ground floor liquid crystal light valve and last one deck liquid crystal light valve had bigger variation.Present embodiment is to have increased folded optical path 7 between projection lens 6 and display body 8, to guarantee having certain light path between projection lens and the display body.Folded optical path 7 is made up of the catoptron that multiaspect has high reflectance, front plated film.Quantity and the placement location of forming the catoptron of folded optical path should guarantee that projection lens meets design requirement to the light path of display body, and image can correct imaging on display body.
Shown in Figure 6 is an embodiment of folded optical path of the present invention, and the four sides catoptron is formed folded optical path.The light that projection lens 6 outgoing are set is projected on and is on oblique first catoptron 71 that is provided with of 60 degree angle lappings, and the reflection ray of first catoptron 71 is invested and is on horizontally disposed second catoptron 72; The reflection ray of second catoptron 72 is invested and is on horizontally disposed the 3rd catoptron 73, and the reflection ray of the 3rd catoptron 73 is invested and is on oblique the 4th catoptron 74 that is provided with of 60 degree angle lappings; The reflection ray of the 4th catoptron 74 is projected on the display body 8.
Change at 10% o'clock for 10 cun display areas, the 1st layer of liquid crystal light valve imaging area and the 20th layer of liquid crystal light valve imaging area, according to calculating, the light path between projection lens 6 and the display body 8 is 980mm.For loss, the anamorphose that guarantees projection light source brightness reduces to minimum, the reflectivity of the catoptron that folded optical path uses is 92%, and the minute surface flatness reaches ± 0.02mm.In order to eliminate ghost image, the catoptron front plated film in the folded optical path.The light path of chief ray from projection lens 6 process four sides catoptrons to display body 8 is 980mm.
The present invention can be used the display data-transmission mode of having announced in the Chinese patent 200710192048.7 that is used for true three-dimensional solid-state volume type stereo display system.
