Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 utilize image space difference with the structure of distance measuring equipment 100 and the schematic diagram of principle of work of range finding for explanation is of the present invention.Distance measuring equipment 110 is used for measuring the testing distance D between determinand MO and distance measuring equipment 100 m.That distance measuring equipment 100 comprises is one luminous/and sensing control circuit 110, a luminescence component 120, an image sensor 130, are apart from counting circuit 140, a parameter calculation circuit 150, and a camera lens LEN 1.The relation that couples of each assembly of inside of distance measuring equipment 100 as shown in Figure 1, therefore repeat no more.
Luminous/sensing control circuit 110 is used for producing LED pulse signal S lD, shutter pulse signal S sT, stage signal S p, read signal S rE, and known distance signal S d.Distance measuring equipment 100 time can be divided into for two stages in range finding: 1. distance sensing stage; 2. noise sensing stage.When distance measuring equipment 100 is in distance sensing during the stage, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 produces the LED pulse signal S of expression " luminous " simultaneously lDwith the shutter pulse signal S that represents " unlatching " sT, and the pulse width of the two is all T c; Then luminous/sensing control circuit 110 produces the read signal S that represents " reading " more simultaneously rEwith the stage signal S that represents " summation " p, and the pulse width of the two is all T r.When distance measuring equipment 100 is in noise sensing during the stage, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 produces the shutter pulse signal S that represents " unlatching " sTand while LED pulse signal S lDrepresent " not luminous ", and the pulse width of shutter pulse signal is T c; Then luminous/sensing control circuit 110 produces the read signal S that represents " reading " more simultaneously rEwith the stage signal S that represents " noise " p, and the pulse width of the two is all T r.
Luminescence component 120, is used for according to LED pulse signal S lD, to send detected light L iDdirective determinand MO, so that determinand MO produces reflected light L rD.More particularly, as LED pulse signal S lDwhile representing " luminous ", luminescence component 120 sends detected light L iDdirective determinand MO; As LED pulse signal S lDwhile representing " not luminous ", luminescence component 120 does not send detected light L iD.In addition, luminescence component 120 can be light emitting diode (Light-Emitting Diode, LED) or laser diode (laser diode).When luminescence component 120 is light emitting diode, distance measuring equipment 100 optionally comprises a camera lens LEN 2, to be used for converging detected light L iDwith directive determinand MO.
Camera lens LEN 1be used for convergent setting light L bor reflected light L rDto image sensor 130.Image sensor 130 comprises M sensing cell CS side by side 1~CS m, and the width of each sensing cell all equals picture element width W pIX, meaning is M sensing cell CS side by side 1~CS moverall width be M * W pIX.Sensing cell CS 1~CS mbe used for according to shutter pulse signal S sT, with sensing camera lens LEN 1the energy of the light converging.More particularly, as shutter pulse signal S sTwhile representing " unlatching ", sensing cell CS 1~CS msensing camera lens LEN 1the light converging is (as bias light L bor reflected light L rD) energy to produce according to this light sensing signal; As shutter pulse signal S sTwhile representing " closing ", sensing cell CS 1~CS msensing camera lens LEN not 1the energy of the light converging.For instance, as shutter pulse signal S sTwhile representing " unlatching ", sensing cell CS 1sensing camera lens LEN 1the energy of the light converging also produces light sensing signal S according to this lS1; Sensing cell CS 2sensing camera lens LEN 1the energy of the light converging also produces light sensing signal S according to this lS2; The rest may be inferred, sensing cell CS msensing camera lens LEN 1the energy of the light converging also produces light sensing signal S according to this lSM.In addition, as read signal S rEwhile representing " reading ", sensing cell CS 1~CS mexport respectively light sensing signal S lS1~S lSM.
Apart from counting circuit 140, comprise a plurality of storage elements, be used for respectively storing sensing cell CS 1~CS mthe light sensing signal S exporting lS1~S lSM, and according to stage signal S p, the attribute of the light sensing signal that setting receives.In the present embodiment, to comprise M storage element M apart from counting circuit 140 1~M mexplanation for example.As stage signal S pwhile representing " summation ", storage element M 1~M mby received light sensing signal S lS1~S lSMjust be set as light sensing signal S that meaning receives lS1~S lSMaccording to stage signal S prepresent " summation " and be marked as positive light sensing signal S lS1+~S lSM+; As stage signal S pwhile representing " noise ", storage element M 1~M mby received light sensing signal S lS1~S lSMbe set as bearing light sensing signal S that meaning receives lS1~S lSMaccording to stage signal S prepresent " noise " and be marked as solarising survey signal S lS1-~S lSM-.Just can be according to positive light sensing signal S apart from counting circuit 140 lS1+~S lSM+survey signal with solarising sLS1-~S lSM-, calculate testing distance D m.Below will illustrate apart from counting circuit 140 and calculate testing distance D mprinciple of work.
As shown in Fig. 2 left side, in distance sensing, in the stage, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can produce the LED pulse signal S of representative " luminous " lD, and make luminescence component 120 send detected light L iDdirective determinand MO, so that determinand MO produces reflected light L rD.Now, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 produces the shutter pulse signal S of representative " unlatching " sT, and make sensing cell CS 1~CS msensing reflected light L rDwith bias light L benergy, to produce respectively light sensing signal S lS1~S lSM.Then luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can be exported the read signal S of representative " reading " rE, so that image sensor 130 output light sensing signal S lS1~S lSMto apart from counting circuit 140, and luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can produce the stage signal S of representative " summation " pthe light sensing signal that the indication of take is now received apart from counting circuit 140 is the light sensing signal of distance sensing in the stage, and meaning is positive light sensing signal S lS1+~S lSM+.Be located at distance sensing in the stage, reflected light L rDmainly converge and image in sensing cell CS k, the positive light sensing signal S now receiving apart from counting circuit 140 lS1+~S lSM+the value first half as right in Fig. 2 as shown in, sensing cell CS ksense bias light L simultaneously bwith reflected light L rD(meaning is that determinand MO images in sensing cell CS kon).Therefore, sensing signal S lSK+equal sensing cell CS ksensing bias light L bthe energy B accumulating kadd sensing cell CS ksensing reflected light L rDthe energy R accumulating k, other sensing cell receives only bias light L b.Therefore, sensing signal S lS1+equal sensing cell CS 1sensing bias light L bthe energy B accumulating 1; Sensing signal S lS21+equal sensing cell CS 2sensing bias light L bthe energy B accumulating 2; The rest may be inferred, sensing signal S lSM+equal sensing cell CS msensing bias light L bthe energy B accumulating m.
As shown in Fig. 2 left side, within the noise sensing stage, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can produce the shutter pulse signal S of representative " unlatching " sT, and make sensing cell CS 1~CS msensing camera lens LEN 1the light converging, to produce light sensing signal S lS1~S lSM.Yet now luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can produce the LED pulse signal S of representative " not luminous " lD, so luminescence component 120 can not send detected light L iDdirective determinand MO, and determinand MO can not produce reflected light L yet rD.Then luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can be exported the read signal S of representative " reading " rE, so that image sensor 130 output light sensing signal S lS1~S lSMto apart from counting circuit 140, and luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can produce the stage signal S of representative " noise " pthe light sensing signal of the light sensing signal that the indication of take is now received apart from counting circuit 140 within the noise sensing stage, meaning is solarising and surveys signal S lS1-~S lSM-.The light sensing signal S now receiving apart from counting circuit 140 lS1-~S lSM-value Lower Half as right in Fig. 2 as shown in.Due to shutter pulse signal S sTin the distance sensing stage, identically with the pulse width in noise sensing stage (be all time span T c).So sensing cell CS 1~CS mthe light sensing signal S producing in distance sensing stage and noise sensing stage lS1~S lSMcorresponding to bias light L bthe part of accumulation can equate.In other words, positive light sensing signal S lS1+~S lSM+in the energy of bias light accumulation can equal solarising and survey signal S lS1-~S lSM-in the energy (B of bias light accumulation 1~B m).
After distance sensing stage and noise sensing stage, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can produce the stage signal S that representative " is calculated distance " p.Now apart from counting circuit 140, the positive light sensing signal in storage element and solarising can be surveyed to signal subtraction, and select and subtract each other the storage element of afterwards stored value maximum and judge according to this reflected light L rDimage space on image sensor 130.That is to say, apart from the storage element M of counting circuit 140 1~M mstored value equals respectively positive light sensing signal S lS1+~S lSM+value deduct solarising and survey signal S lS1-~S lSM-value.More particularly, storage element M 1store positive light sensing signal S lS1+survey signal S with solarising lS1-, due to positive light sensing signal S lS1+equal B 1and solarising is surveyed signal S lS1-equal B 1, so storage element M 1through stored value after subtracting each other, be zero; Storage element M 2store positive light sensing signal S lS2+survey signal S with solarising lS2-, due to positive light sensing signal S lS2+equal B 2and solarising is surveyed signal S lS2-equal B 2, so storage element M 2through stored value after subtracting each other, be zero; The rest may be inferred, storage element M kstore positive light sensing signal S lSK+survey signal S with solarising lSK-, due to positive light sensing signal S lS2+equal (B k+ R k) and solarising survey signal S lS2-equal B k, so storage element M kafter lingering fragrance subtracts, stored value is R k; Storage element M mstore positive light sensing signal S lSM+survey signal S with solarising lSM-, due to positive light sensing signal S lSM+equal B mand solarising is surveyed signal S lSM-equal B m, so storage element M mafter subtracting each other, stored value is zero.In other words, at storage element M 1~M mamong, storage element M kvalue equal R k, and the value of other storage element all equals zero, and therefore apart from counting circuit 140, can select according to this storage element M k, meaning is storage element M kstored light sensing signal has corresponding to reflected light L rDenergy.Due to storage element M kfor storing sensing cell CS kthe light sensing signal producing, therefore can judge apart from counting circuit 140 the reflected light L that determinand MO produces rDmainly converge and image in sensing cell CS k.The reflected light L that so, can further produce according to determinand MO apart from counting circuit 140 rDmainly converge and image in sensing cell CS k, and extrapolate reflected light L in Fig. 1 by following formula rDimage space D cS:
D CS=K×W PIX…(1);
In addition, due to camera lens LEN in Fig. 1 1focus O f1with sensing cell CS 1between formed straight line L fbe parallel to detected light L iD, so detected light L iDand reflected light L rDangle theta 1with straight line L fand reflected light L rDangle theta 2equate.In other words tan θ 1with tan θ 2relation can represent by following formula:
tanθ 1=L/D M=tanθ 2=D CS/D F…(2);
Wherein L represents luminescence component 120 and image sensor 130 (detected light L iDwith straight line L f) between known distance, D cSrepresent reflected light L rDimage space, D frepresentative shot LEN 1focal length.According to formula (2), testing distance D mcan represent by following formula:
D M=(D F×L)/D CS…(3);
Therefore, apart from counting circuit 140, can first calculate image space D by formula (1) cS, relend by formula (3), according to known distance L, focal length D f, to calculate testing distance D m.
In sum, among distance measuring equipment 100, in distance sensing, in the stage, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 is controlled luminescence component 120 and is sent detected light L iDbe incident upon determinand MO, and by sensing cell CS 1~CS msensing camera lens LEN 1the light converging is (as reflected light L rDwith bias light L b) and the positive light sensing signal S that produces according to this lS1+~S lSM+be stored in storage element M 1~M m.Within the noise sensing stage, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 is controlled luminescence component 120 and is not sent detected light L iD, and by sensing cell CS 1~CS msensing camera lens LEN 1the light converging is (as bias light L b) and the solarising producing is according to this surveyed signal S lS1+~S lSM+be stored in storage element M 1~M m.Now, storage element M 1~M mvalue can equal positive light sensing signal S lS1+~S lSM+deduct solarising and survey signal S lS1-~S lSM-.Therefore, corresponding to reflected light L rDthe sensing cell CS converging kstorage element M kvalue can be greater than the value of other storage element.So, apart from counting circuit 140, can judge reflected light L rDthe sensing cell CS converging k, and calculate according to this anti-photometry L rDimage space D cS.Therefore, can be according to image space D apart from counting circuit 140 cS, camera lens LEN 1focal length D f, known distance L to be to calculate testing distance D m.
In addition, in distance measuring equipment 100, distance sensing stage and noise sensing stage can carry out repeatedly (as Y time) repeatedly, so that storage element M 1~M mcan store the positive light sensing signal corresponding to Y distance sensing stage, survey signal with the solarising corresponding to Y noise sensing stage.Due to the positive light sensing signal in each the distance sensing stage part corresponding to the energy of bias light, can be surveyed signal by the solarising in corresponding noise sensing stage and offset, therefore except corresponding to reflected light L rDthe sensing cell CS of the picture that pools kstorage element M kvalue can equal (Y * R k) outside, the value of other storage element all equals zero.Thus, even because of reflected light L rDenergy compared with weak and make sensing cell CS kthe energy R accumulating according to this kless, distance measuring equipment 100 still can be by distance sensing stage and the noise sensing stage (that is to say, Y is become to large) of carrying out repeatedly, to amplify storage element M kvalue and the difference between other storage element, and allow, apart from counting circuit 140, can correctly find out and there is peaked storage element M k, and calculate according to this reflected light L rDimage space D cS, to improve accuracy.
Please refer to Fig. 3.Fig. 3 is the schematic diagram of the principle of work of explanation distance measuring equipment 100 minimizing scintillations.The power supply receiving due to general indoor light source is alternating current, therefore except bias light L boutward, the bias light of another part (passage of scintillation light) L fcan be subject to alternating current frequency impact and glimmer.For example, the power supply of indoor daylight lamp is alternating current, thus the light launched of daylight lamp can be subject to alternating current frequency impact and glimmer.In Fig. 3, the cycle of establishing alternating current is T f(cycle that is 60Hz, alternating current as the frequency of alternating current is 0.0167 second).The power P of alternating current can ceaselessly change along with the time, so passage of scintillation light L fpower also can be along with the time ceaselessly changes.Yet the power P of alternating current is every half ac period (T f/ 2) will circulation primary.For example, when the time is T, the power P of alternating current equals P t; When the time is (T+T f/ 2), time, the power P of alternating current still equals P t.Passage of scintillation light L again fpower be proportional to the power P of alternating current so passage of scintillation light L fpower can similar alternating current power, with every half ac period (T f/ 2) will circulation primary.Thus, in distance measuring equipment 100, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 can be by command range sensing stage (T as shown in Figure 3 1+with T 2+) and noise sensing stage (T as shown in Figure 3 1-with T 2-) the time interval equal half ac period (T f/ 2), to lower the impact of scintillation.More particularly, luminous/sensing control circuit 110, controls sensing cell CS 1~CS min distance sensing stage T 1+(or T 2+) sensing is corresponding to the power P of alternating current 1(or P 2) passage of scintillation light L f, and make sensing cell CS 1~CS mthe positive light sensing signal producing is corresponding to passage of scintillation light L fpart can equal F 11~F m1(or F 12~F m2).And luminous/sensing control circuit 110 command range sensing stage T 1+(or T 2+) and noise sensing stage T 1-(or T 2-) the time interval equal half ac period T f/ 2 (as 0.0083 seconds).Therefore, sensing cell CS 1~CS min noise sensing stage T 1-(or T 2-) the passage of scintillation light L of interior institute sensing fpower and sensing cell CS 1~CS min distance sensing stage T 1+(or T 2+) the passage of scintillation light L of interior institute sensing fpower identical.So in noise sensing stage T 1-(or T 2-) in, sensing cell CS 1~CS mthe solarising producing is surveyed signal corresponding to passage of scintillation light L fpart also can equal F 11~F m1(or F 12~F m2).Therefore, distance sensing stage T 1+(or T 2+) positive light sensing signal corresponding to passage of scintillation light L fpart, can be by corresponding noise sensing stage T 1-(or T 2-) solarising survey signal and offset.In other words, except corresponding to reflected light L rDthe sensing cell CS of the picture that pools kstorage element M kvalue can equal R koutside, the value of other storage element all equals zero.Even so sensing cell CS 1~CS mcan sense passage of scintillation light L f, luminous/sensing control circuit 110 still can be by command range sensing stage T 1+or T 2+respectively with noise sensing stage T 1-or T 2-the time interval equal half ac period (T f/ 2), to lower the impact of scintillation, and make apart from the counting circuit 140 reflected light L that can correctly judge rDimage space D cSand calculate testing distance D m.
Due in process of production, when assembling distance measuring equipment 100, the position of the assembly of distance measuring equipment 100 inside can produce skew because of assembly error, thus distance measuring equipment 100 measure apart from time can be subject to the impact of assembly error.Therefore the parameter calculation circuit 150 that distance measuring equipment 100 comprises is used for proofreading and correct the assembly error of distance measuring equipment 100.Below by the principle of work of explanation parameter calculation circuit 150.
Parameter calculation circuit 150 receives the distance signal S that luminous/sensing control circuit 110 is exported d, and obtain known distance D c1with known distance D c2.Known distance D wherein c1for proofreading and correct thing CO 1and the distance between distance measuring equipment 100, known distance D c2for proofreading and correct thing CO 2and the distance between distance measuring equipment 100.By the method as described in the 2nd figure, luminescence component 120 sends detected light L iDdirective is proofreaied and correct thing CO 1or CO 2, and the light sensing signal that parameter calculation circuit 150 can be exported according to image sensor 130 obtains reflected light L rDimage space, and the assembly error angle of proofreading and correct according to this distance measuring equipment 100.
First suppose the detected light L that luminescence component 120 sends luminescence component 120 because of assembly error iDrotary luminous error angle θ lD.
Please refer to Fig. 4.Fig. 4 is that the detected light L that luminescence component 120 sends is proofreaied and correct in explanation iDluminous error angle θ lDthe schematic diagram of method.Luminous/sensing control circuit 110 is controlled luminescence component 120 transmitting detected light L iDdirective is proofreaied and correct thing CO 1.Wherein proofread and correct thing CO 1with the distance of distance measuring equipment 100 be known distance D c1.Due to detected light L rDbe subject to the impact of the assembly error of luminescence component 120, so detected light L iDcan be with a luminous error angle θ lDthing CO is proofreaied and correct in incident 1, and proofread and correct thing CO 1reflection detected light L iDthe reflected light L producing rDcan converge and image in sensing cell CS i.Detected light L iDwith reflected light L rDangle be θ 1I, and straight line L fwith reflected light L rDangle be θ 2I.As shown in Figure 4, due to straight line L fthe normal that is parallel to the plane of proofreading and correct thing, therefore (θ 1IlD) can equal θ 2I.That is to say tan (θ 1IlD) equal tan θ 2I.Therefore can obtain following formula:
D C1=1/[1/(D F×L)×D CSI+B]…(4);
B=tanθ LD/L…(5);
Wherein B representative is used for proofreading and correct luminous error angle θ lDcorrection parameter, D cSIrepresent reflected light L rDimage space.Therefore, parameter calculation circuit 150 can calculate correction parameter B according to formula (4).So, parameter calculation circuit 150 can be passed through parameter signal S aBwith output calibration B parameter to apart from counting circuit 140 so that apart from counting circuit 140 formula (2) can be proofreaied and correct as shown in the formula, to calculate the testing distance D after calibrated m:
D M=1/[1/(D F×L)×D CS+B]…(6);
Therefore, even the detected light L that distance measuring equipment 100 sends luminescence component 120 because of assembly error iDrotary luminous error angle θ lD, distance measuring equipment 100 still can calculate the luminous error angle of recoverable θ by parameter calculation circuit 150 lDcorrection parameter B, to allow apart from counting circuit 140 according to correction parameter B, camera lens LEN 1focal length D f, known distance L, and catoptrical image space D while measuring determinand MO cS, and correctly calculate testing distance D m.
Please refer to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6.Fig. 5, Fig. 6 make image sensor 130 rotary sensing error angle θ because of assembly error for explanation cS1with θ cS2the schematic diagram of bearing calibration.Fig. 5 is the top view of distance measuring equipment 100.As shown in Figure 5, the sensing error angle θ of image sensor 130 cS1in XY plane.Fig. 6 is the side view of distance measuring equipment 100.In addition the sensing error angle θ that, image sensor 130 rotates as can be seen from Figure 6 cS1with θ cS2.Luminous/sensing control circuit 110 is controlled luminescence component 120 transmitting detected light L iDdirective is proofreaied and correct thing CO 2, wherein proofread and correct thing CO 2with the distance of distance measuring equipment 100 be known distance D c2.(meaning supposes luminous error angle θ now to suppose there is no assembly error by luminescence component 120 lDbe zero), detected light L iDcan incident proofread and correct thing CO 1, and proofread and correct thing CO 1reflection detected light L iDthe reflected light L producing rDcan converge and image in sensing cell CS j.Detected light L iDwith reflected light L rDangle be θ 1J, and straight line L fwith reflected light L rDangle be θ 2J.As seen from Figure 6, D cSXfor reflected light L rDimage space D cSJbe projected to the projector distance of X-axis, and image space D cSJwith projector distance D cSXrelation can represent by following formula:
D CSX=D CSJ×cosθ CS2×cosθ CS1…(6);
Again in Fig. 5, straight line L and detected light L iDparallel, so straight line L and reflected light L rDangle theta 2Jequal detected light L iDwith reflected light L rDangle theta 1J.That is to say tan θ 1Jequal tan θ 2J.So, known distance D c2with projector distance D cSXrelation can represent by following formula:
L/D C2=D CSX/D F…(7);
Therefore, according to formula (6) and (7), can obtain following formula;
D C2=1/(A×D CSJ)…(8);
A=(cosθ CS2×cosθ CS1)/(D F×L)…(9);
Wherein A representative is used for proofreading and correct sensing error angle θ cS2with θ cS1correction parameter.Therefore, parameter calculation circuit 150 calculates correction parameter A according to formula (8).So, parameter calculation circuit 150 can be passed through parameter signal S aBwith output calibration parameter A to apart from counting circuit 140 so that apart from counting circuit 140 formula (2) can be proofreaied and correct as shown in the formula, to calculate the testing distance D after calibrated m:
D M=1/(A×D CS)…(10);
Hence one can see that, even if distance measuring equipment 100 makes image sensor 130 rotary sensing error angle θ because of assembly error cS1with θ cS2, distance measuring equipment 100 still can calculate recoverable sensing error angle θ by parameter calculation circuit 150 cS2with θ cS1correction parameter A, can be by correction parameter A catoptrical image space D when measuring determinand MO apart from counting circuit 140 to allow cS, and correctly calculate testing distance D m.
Suppose the detected light L that distance measuring equipment 100 sends luminescence component 120 because of assembly error iDrotary luminous error angle θ lD, and while image sensor 130 rotary sensing error angle θ cS1with θ cS2.Explanation by Fig. 4, Fig. 5, Fig. 6 is known, and distance measuring equipment 100 can send detected light L by luminescence component 120 iDto proofreading and correct thing CO 1with CO 2, to obtain respectively corresponding to proofreading and correct thing CO 1reflected light L rDimage space D cS1, with corresponding to proofreading and correct thing CO 2reflected light L rDimage space D cS2.Image space D again cS1with D cS2, distance measuring equipment 100 with proofread and correct thing CO 1between known distance D c1, distance measuring equipment 100 with proofread and correct thing CO 2between known distance D c2, and the relation of correction parameter A and B can represent by following formula:
D C1=1/[A×D CS1+B]…(11);
D C2=1/[A×D CS2+B]…(12);
Now, parameter calculation circuit 150 can calculate recoverable sensing error angle θ according to formula (11) and formula (12) cS1with θ cS2correction parameter A, and the luminous error angle of recoverable θ lDcorrection parameter B.Parameter calculation circuit 150 can be passed through parameter signal S aBwith output calibration parameter A and B to apart from counting circuit 140 so that apart from counting circuit 140 formula (2) can be proofreaied and correct as shown in the formula, to calculate the testing distance D after calibrated m:
D M=1/[A×D CS+B]…(13);
So, even the detected light L that distance measuring equipment 100 sends luminescence component 120 because of assembly error iDrotary luminous error angle θ lD, and while image sensor 130 rotary sensing error angle θ cS1with θ cS2.Distance measuring equipment 100 still can calculate recoverable sensing error angle θ by parameter calculation circuit 150 cS2with θ cS1correction parameter A and the luminous error angle of recoverable θ lDcorrection parameter B, to allow, apart from counting circuit 140, can correctly calculate testing distance D m.
In addition, known according to formula (13), when calculating testing distance D apart from counting circuit 140 mtime, reflected light L when only needing correction parameter A, correction parameter B that parameter calculation circuit 150 exports and measuring determinand MO rDimage space D cS, and do not need camera lens LEN 1focal length D fwith known distance L.In other words, even in process of production, camera lens LEN 1focal length D fhave error, or known distance L is because assembling produces error, still can be according to formula (13) correctly to calculate testing distance D apart from counting circuit 140 m.
Please refer to Fig. 7.Fig. 7 is the schematic diagram of the first embodiment 700 of the structure of explanation image sensor of the present invention.As shown in Figure 7, the M of image sensor 700 sensing cell is arranged in the capable K row of N.In image sensor 700, the position in the horizontal direction of every a line sensing cell (or direction of the X-axis shown in Fig. 7) is all identical.Furthermore, establish sensing cell CS 11~CS nKwidth be all W pIX, and establish sensing cell CS 11left side in the position of horizontal direction, can be expressed as zero, so, with the center of every a line sensing cell, represent the position in its horizontal direction, the 1st row sensing cell CS 11~CS 1Kposition in horizontal direction can be expressed as 1/2 * W pIX; The 2nd row sensing cell CS 21~CS 2Kposition in horizontal direction can be expressed as 3/2 * W pIX; The capable sensing cell CS of N n1~CS nKposition in horizontal direction can be expressed as [(2 * N-1) * W pIX]/2, other can the rest may be inferred, therefore repeat no more.Therefore, as shown in the above description, in image sensor 700, each row sensing cell position in horizontal direction all can be expressed as { 1/2 * W pIX, 3/2 * W pIX..., [(2 * N-1) * W pIX]/2}, so each row sensing cell position in horizontal direction is all identical.
Please refer to Fig. 8.Fig. 8 utilizes image sensor 700 with detecting reflected light L for illustrating rDimage space D cSthe schematic diagram of principle of work.Circle shown in the first half of Fig. 8 is used for representing reflected light L rDposition in image sensor 700 imagings, that is to say, by the sensing cell that circle covered, can sense reflected light L rDenergy, and produce larger light sensing signal S lS.In order to obtain reflected light L rDimage space D cS, now, the light sensing signal S that every a line sensing cell can be produced lSbe added (if Fig. 8 is as shown in second), to obtain the accumulative total light sensing signal S in horizontal direction (X-direction) aLS.For example, according to the 1st row sensing cell CS 11~CS 1Klight sensing signal plus and the accumulative total light sensing signal that produces is S aLS1; According to the 2nd row sensing cell CS 21~CS 2Klight sensing signal plus and the accumulative total light sensing signal that produces is S aLS2; According to the capable sensing cell CS of N n1~CS nKlight sensing signal plus and the accumulative total light sensing signal that produces is S aLSN, other can the rest may be inferred, therefore repeat no more.Owing to receiving reflected light L rDsensing cell can produce higher light sensing signal, therefore approach reflected light L rDimage space D cSthe sensing cell of (meaning is circle center) all can produce higher light sensing signal.In other words, if at accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS1~S aLSNin, corresponding to the capable sensing cell CS of F f1~CS fKaccumulative total light sensing signal S aLSFthere is maximal value, represent reflected light L rDimage space (circle center) be positioned at the capable sensing cell of F.Thus, can represent reflected light L in the position of the capable sensing cell of F in horizontal direction rDimage space D cS.For example, as shown in Figure 8, the 5th row sensing cell CS 51~CS 5Kcorresponding accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS5there is maximal value, therefore can judge reflected light L rDimage space (circle center) be positioned at the 5th row sensing cell, thus, can the position 9/2 * W of the 5th row sensing cell in horizontal direction pIXrepresent reflected light L rDimage space D cS.
Please refer to Fig. 9.Fig. 9 is the schematic diagram of another embodiment 900 of the structure of explanation image sensor of the present invention.As shown in Figure 9, the M of image sensor 900 sensing cell is arranged in the capable K row of N.Compared to image sensor 700, the shift length D of being separated by of the position in the horizontal direction (or direction of the X-axis shown in Fig. 9) of other row sensing cell that each row sensing cell of image sensor 900 is adjacent sF(in Fig. 9, suppose shift length D sFequal W pIX/ 2).For example, the 1st row sensing cell CS 11~CS n1position in horizontal direction can be expressed as { 1/2 * W pIX, 3/2 * W pIX..., [(2 * N+1) * W pIX]/2}; The 2nd row sensing cell CS 12~CS n2position in horizontal direction can be expressed as { W pIX, 2 * W pIX..., [2 * N * W pIX]/2}; K row sensing cell CS 1K~CS nKposition in horizontal direction can be expressed as { [1/2+ (K-1)/2] * W pIX, [3/2+ (K-1)/2] * W pIX..., [(2 * N-1)/2+ (K-1)/2] * W pIX, other can the rest may be inferred, therefore repeat no more.
Please refer to Figure 10.Figure 10 utilizes image sensor 900 with detecting reflected light L for illustrating rDimage space D cSthe schematic diagram of principle of work.Circle shown in the first half of Figure 10 is used for representing reflected light L rDin the position of image sensor 900 imagings.According to the sensing cell CS of image sensor 900 11~CS nKlight sensing signal and the accumulative total light sensing signal that produces is S aLS1~S aLS2N.Wherein add up light sensing signal S aLS1corresponding sensing range is that horizontal direction is upper set to 0~W pIX/ 2, due at sensing cell CS 11~CS nKamong, only there is sensing cell CS 11sensing range contain accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS1corresponding sensing range, therefore accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS1equal sensing cell CS 11the value of light sensing signal; Accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS2corresponding sensing range is position W in horizontal direction pIX/ 2~W pIX, due at sensing cell CS 11~CS nKamong, sensing cell CS 11with CS 12sensing range all contain accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS2corresponding sensing range, therefore accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS2can be by being added sensing cell CS 11with CS 21light sensing signal and obtain, other accumulative total light sensing signal can be obtained by similar approach, therefore repeat no more.If at accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS1~S aLS2Nin, accumulative total light sensing signal S aLSFthere is maximal value, represent reflected light L rDimage space (circle center) be positioned at corresponding to accumulative total light sensing signal S aLSFhorizontal direction on position.For example, as shown in figure 10, accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS10there is maximal value, therefore can judge reflected light L rDimage space (circle center) be positioned at corresponding to accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS10horizontal direction on position.Due to accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS10corresponding sensing range is 9/2 * W pIX~5 * W pIX, therefore add up light sensing signal S aLS10position in corresponding horizontal direction can be expressed as 19/4 * W pIX.So, reflected light L rDimage space (circle center) can add up light sensing signal S aLS10position 19/4 * W in horizontal direction pIXrepresent.
In addition,, compared to image sensor 700, image sensor 900 has higher resolution.For example, when utilizing image sensor 700 to detect reflected light L rDimage space D cStime, if reflected light L rDimage space D cS(circle center) physical location in horizontal direction is (17/4) * W pIX, now add up light sensing signal S aLS5there is maximal value, so reflected light L rDimage space D cScan be with the 5th row sensing cell of image sensor 700 the position 9/2 * W in horizontal direction pIXrepresent; If reflected light L rDimage space D cS(circle center) physical location in horizontal direction slightly moves, and becomes as (19/4) * W pIX, now add up light sensing signal S aLS5still there is maximal value, that is to say, although reflected light L rDimage space D cS(circle center) physical location in horizontal direction is from (17/4) * W pIXbecome (19/4) * W pIXbut, reflected light L rDimage space D cSstill can be with the 5th row sensing cell of image sensor 700 the position 9/2 * W in horizontal direction pIXrepresent.
Yet, when utilizing image sensor 900 to detect reflected light L rDimage space D cStime, if reflected light L rDimage space D cS(circle center) physical location in horizontal direction is (17/4) * W pIX, now add up light sensing signal S aLS9there is maximal value, so reflected light L rDimage space D cScan be with accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS9position 17/4 * W in horizontal direction pIXrepresent; Yet, if reflected light L rDimage space D cS(circle center) physical location in horizontal direction slightly moves, and becomes as (19/4) * W pIX, now add up light sensing signal S aLS10there is maximal value, so reflected light L rDimage space D cScan be with accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS10position 19/4 * W in horizontal direction pIXrepresent.Hence one can see that, utilizes image sensor 900 can detect more accurately reflected light L rDimage space D cS.Furthermore, compared to image sensor 700, in image sensor 900, the shift length that the position in the horizontal direction of other row sensing cell being adjacent by each row sensing cell of adjustment is separated by, can make image sensor 900 have higher resolution.
In addition,, in image sensor 900, the shift length that the position in the horizontal direction of other row sensing cell that each row sensing cell is adjacent (or direction of the X-axis shown in Fig. 9) is separated by does not limit identical.For example, the shift length between the 1st row sensing cell and the sensing cell of the 2nd row is W pIX/ 2, and the 2nd row sensing cell and the 3rd row sensing cell between shift length be W pIX/ 4.Now, still can be by the method described in Figure 10 to utilize image sensor 900 to detect reflected light L rDimage space D cS.
Please refer to Figure 11.Figure 11 is the schematic diagram of another embodiment 1100 of the structure of explanation image sensor of the present invention.As shown in figure 11, the M of image sensor 1100 sensing cell is arranged in the capable Q row of N.Image sensor 1100 and 700 difference is, each sensing cell of image sensor 700 is a square, and each sensing cell of image sensor 1100 is a rectangle.For example, the width of each sensing cell of image sensor 700 with highly all equal W pIX, and the width of each sensing cell of image sensor 1100 is W pIX, be highly designed to (W pIX* K/Q), wherein Q < K, that is to say, it is upper that the minor face of each sensing cell of image sensor 1100 is positioned at horizontal direction (X-direction), and long limit is positioned in vertical direction.In other words, every a line sensing cell of image sensor 1100 has the width identical with each sensing cell of image sensor 700, although and the number Q of every a line sensing cell of image sensor 1100 is less than the number K of every a line sensing cell of image sensor 700, the total area of every a line sensing cell of image sensor 1100 still remains identical with image sensor 700.Be similar to image sensor 700, image sensor 1100 provides M sensing signal that M sensing cell produce to apart from counting circuit, so that calculate accumulative total light sensing signal S apart from counting circuit aLS1~S aLSN.For example, according to the 1st row sensing cell CS 11~CS 1Qlight sensing signal plus and the accumulative total light sensing signal that produces is S aLS1; According to the 2nd row sensing cell CS 21~CS 2Qlight sensing signal plus and the accumulative total light sensing signal that produces is S aLS2; According to the capable sensing cell CS of N n1~CS nQlight sensing signal plus and the accumulative total light sensing signal that produces is S aLSN, other can the rest may be inferred, therefore repeat no more.Thus, apart from counting circuit, can utilize the method described in Fig. 8, with according to accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS1~S aLSNobtain reflected light L rDimage space, and and then calculate testing distance D m.
Compared to image sensor 700, due in image sensor 1100, the long limit of each sensing cell is positioned at and in vertical direction, makes the number of every a line sensing cell less (meaning is Q < K), therefore can reduce apart from counting circuit in producing accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS1~S aLSNthe number of times that Shi Suoxu is cumulative.Because the total area of every a line sensing cell of image sensor 1100 still remains identical with image sensor 700, the energy of the light that therefore the received camera lens LEN of every a line sensing cell converges remains unchanged.In other words, when utilizing image sensor 1100, can reduce apart from counting circuit in producing accumulative total light sensing signal S aLS1~S aLSNthe operand that Shi Suoxu processes, and maintain accumulative total light sensing signal S simultaneously aLS1~S aLSNsignal to noise ratio (S/N ratio).In addition, in image sensor 1100, the minor face of each sensing cell is positioned in horizontal direction, and its width is still maintained W pIX.In other words, utilize image sensor 1100 to calculate reflected light L rDduring image space in horizontal direction, its resolution with utilize the situation of image sensor 700 identical.Therefore, compared to image sensor 700, image sensor 1100 can reduce the operand apart from the required processing of counting circuit, and maintains signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) and the resolution of image space in horizontal direction (meaning is the direction that minor face is positioned at) of accumulative total light sensing signal simultaneously.
Please refer to Figure 12.Figure 12 illustrates the schematic diagram of the range measurement system 1200 of a tool calibration function of the present invention.As shown in figure 12, range measurement system 1200 comprises a distance measuring equipment 100 and a translucent sheet 1201.For convenience of description, only depict the part assembly (luminescence component 120 and image sensor 130) of distance measuring equipment 100 in Figure 12, remaining component is omitted.As the associated description of previous Fig. 4 to Fig. 6, in order to proofread and correct luminous error angle and the sensing error angle of distance measuring equipment 100, distance measuring equipment 100 need to carry out the correction of twice, that is will send detected light L twice iD, could obtain respectively luminous and sensing error angle.Compared to distance measuring equipment 100, range measurement system 1200 only needs once to proofread and correct, as long as that is send detected light L one time iD, just can obtain luminous and sensing error angle simultaneously.Specification specified is as rear.In addition,, in order to allow reader more understand the function mode of range measurement system 1200, the drafting about light in Figure 12 represents the intensity of this light with the width of a light.
The distance that translucent sheet 1201 and distance measuring equipment are 100 is known distance D cT; Proofread and correct thing CO 1and the distance that distance measuring equipment is 100 is known distance D c1.The characteristic of translucent sheet 1201 is for when a light is incident upon translucent sheet 1201, and the part light of this light can be reflected, and all the other parts can be penetrated over.As luminescence component transmitting detected light L iDtime, detected light L iDcan first arrive at translucent sheet 1201, now detected light L iDpart light can penetrate translucent sheet 1201 and become detected light L iDX; Detected light L iDpart light can be reflected by translucent sheet 1201 and become reflected light L rDY.Follow reflected light L rDYbe incident to image sensor 130 and image in sensing cell CS y(that is image space D cSY).Then detected light L iDXarrive at and proofread and correct thing CO 1, be corrected thing CO 1reflect and become reflected light L rDX.Reflected light L rDXbe incident to image sensor 130 and image in sensing cell CS x(that is image space D cSx).Thus, parameter calculation circuit 150 just can be according to known distance D c1with D cT, and image space D cSXwith D cSY, draw the luminous error angle of distance measuring equipment 100 and sensing error angle and produce correction parameter A and B, to allow, apart from counting circuit 140, can correctly calculate testing distance.
In addition, in range measurement system 1200, can utilize and adjust light by the ratio of translucent sheet 1201, make to be finally incident to the reflected light L of image sensor 130 rDXwith L rDYrough equate of intensity.Thus, just can effectively improve signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) (signal noise rate, SNR).In order not allow Figure 12 too chaotic, reflected light L rDXbe depicted as directly into being incident upon image sensor 130.In fact, reflected light L rDXstill can cause reflected light L by translucent sheet 1201 rDXpart light by translucent sheet 1201, reflected, make to be finally incident to the reflected light L of image sensor 130 rDXintensity weaken once again.Therefore, suppose that it is M/N that a light is incident to the ratio that translucent sheet 1201 passed through, wherein N is greater than M; And the reflectivity of proofreading and correct thing is K/L, and wherein L is greater than K, is finally incident to the reflected light L of image sensor 130 rDXwith L rDYcompared to original detected light L iDintensity (representing with Q) can draw with following formula:
Q X=(M/N)×(K/L)×(M/N);
Q Y=(N-M/N);
The numerical value of lifting a reality is example, establishes M/N and be 65%, K/L is 90%, intensity Q xequal 65% * 90% * 65%=38%; Intensity Q yequal 35%, can learn that the light intensity that is finally incident under these circumstances image sensor 130 is rough equal.
Please refer to Figure 13.Figure 13 is the schematic diagram of two kinds of embodiment of explanation translucent sheet 1201 of the present invention.As shown in FIG. 13A, translucent sheet 1201 can be the translucent sheet that a monoblock has a penetrance, and so-called penetrance is the detecting light wavelength of sending for luminescence component 120 herein.For instance, if the detected light that luminescence component 120 sends is infrared ray, 1201 pairs of infrared rays of translucent sheet of Figure 13 A have a penetrance.In addition, as shown in Figure 13 B, translucent sheet 1201 also can be by two part J 1with J 2institute forms.Part J 1be the detected light L sending for luminescence component 120 iDfor all-transparent, that is detected light L iDcan be completely by part J 1; Part J 2for the detected light L sending for luminescence component iDfor entirely opaque, that is detected light L iDcan be completely by part J 2institute reflects.Therefore, when luminescence component 120, sending detected light L iDtime, there is detected light L partly iDcan be incident to part J 1and by becoming detected light L iDX; The detected light L that has part iDcan be incident to part J 2and reflection becomes reflected light L rDY.Thus, the translucent sheet shown in Figure 13 B 1201 also can be reached required effect.
In sum, the range measurement system of tool calibration function provided by the present invention, by a translucent sheet is set, reaches to send detected light one time, just can learn assembly error angle and be proofreaied and correct, and offers the convenience that user is larger.
The foregoing is only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, all equalizations of doing according to the claims in the present invention change and modify, and all should belong to covering scope of the present invention.
