Description

For the method and apparatus projecting at least one light beam
The application is the applying date is on January 8th, 2008, the divisional application that application number is 200880124376.6, denomination of invention is " method and apparatus for projecting at least one light beam " and the application for a patent for invention applying for artificial Aosilanmu Ltd.
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method and apparatus for projecting at least one light beam.
Background technology
In the projector based on so-called " flying spot (Flying-Spot) " principle of work and power, deflect light beam (typical case is made up of three primary colors red, green and blue) by two dimension resonance micro mirror, and project on the plane of delineation.
Fig. 1 illustrates the schematic diagram for principle of work and power that " flying spot " project is described.At this, lasing light emitter 101(red R), 102(blueness B) and 103(green G) the light beam of different colours be respectively aligned to translucent mirror (transmission of mirror and reflection carry out) 104,105,106 according to wavelength, and consequently as total beam 110(also referred to as projection beam) alignment two dimension resonance micro mirror 107, total beam 110 is deflected and projects on the plane of delineation 108 by two-dimensionally.At this, by deflecting total beam 110 in phase builds image (beam profile 109 referring in the plane of delineation 108) continuously in the plane of delineation 108.
Image information by respective sources 101 to 103 and the intensity modulated of deflection synchronization of micro mirror 107 generate and show.
Due to the nonlinear deflection of micro mirror 107 and nonlinear beam profile 109 obtained in the plane of delineation 108, time-multiplexed method is used to show the image information (" picture point " or " pixel ") that each position is discrete: therefore the information determined projected on the plane of delineation in the time period limited.
The information projected especially represents the brightness of the light beam produced by light source 101 to 103 and the superposition of color, and wherein the brightness of light beam can regulate by the amplitude of relevant light source.
Preferably, light source is laser instrument, especially laser diode respectively.Therefore, the brightness of the light launched by laser instrument is corresponded to by the electric current of laser instrument.
Fig. 2 illustrates the view of the sweep time range of each picture point relevant with the position of corresponding picture point, in seconds, or rather not only for row (referring to curve 201) and for row (referring to curve 202).
Such as, the image projected is that 640 picture point are wide and 480 picture point height.By shown in Fig. 1 and described, total beam 110 is deflected 109 generations: such as when pressing the image that row builds, the middle part that total beam 110 is expert at is substantially than in border area more faster.
Exemplarily, there is the horizontal frequency of 27kHz and the vertical frequency of 1.2kHz according to the micro mirror in the example of Fig. 2 when the resolution of 640 × 480 picture point.
Thus, by time-multiplexed method, by picture point obtaining time range about the spatial coherence in the XY coordinate system of time, restricted length and the persistent period for each picture point on the time.
Fig. 3 illustrates a part for the time range gone in the region (in the middle part of image) at the middle part at the plane of delineation in Fig. 2 along (level).
Summary of the invention
Become apparent that according to above mentioned parameter: without local error, image information is shown that the temporal resolution needed for electronic installation on the projection surface is less than in the scope of picosecond by intensity or amplitude for modulating light beam.In theory, association error can be reduced by correspondingly time upper high-resolution and high cost circuit.But, the device that this cost requirement is expensive, and actually (such as to depend on selected resolution) be not feasible all the time.
But, if reduce temporal resolution, then image degradation and due to mistake space correlation and in picture point plane, distortion occurs.
Another problem is that the conversion between time range and the band of position owing to the nonlinear deflection of micro mirror causes.
In the time period selecting picture point by time-multiplexed method, the rise time of electronic installation and fall time have impact on the contrast between picture point.This impact by signal edge rise or decline persistent period and strengthen: edge with to picture point can time and space compared with more long, then the contrast between picture point is more poor.
According to the above-mentioned form of implementation for Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, when constant edge slope, when there being the minimum time can use (namely in the picture portion) on the whole for picture point, then contrast is then worst.
Fig. 4 schematically illustrates an image to be projected part the plane of delineation with big as far as possible contrast (namely from white to the transition of black or contrary between each two picture point).
Fig. 5 illustrates the driving voltage 501 for laser instrument and the electric current 502 by laser instrument thus obtained accordingly simplifiedly.
By the typically brightness that is proportional to the light quantity launched and that feel thus corresponding to observer of the curent change process 502 of laser instrument.
Figure 5 illustrates picture point n-2, n-1 and n, they exemplarily have duration TpAnd there is the pattern of the light-dark according to Fig. 4-bright.Driving voltage 501 is by laser turn-on, shutoff and connects again.
Based on final edge slope, form switch on delay 503 and 505 when connecting laser instrument, and form turn-off delay 504 and 506 when turning off laser instrument.
These postpone the contrast deteriorating significantly between picture point.Dark picture point being illuminated particularly in part during postponing 504 and 506, thus the maximum accessible contrast of projecting cell (high position frequency or spatial frequency) when the edge in showing image substantially reduces.
Fig. 6 illustrates the circuit block diagram for excitation laser 603.
There is the digital signal 605 of n-bit width by digital/analog converter 601(DAC) convert analogue signal to and amplify by the driver for excitation laser 603.Laser instrument 603 is connected to power supply 604(VDD with its positive pole) go up and encouraged by driver 602 by digital/analog converter 601.
Image source such as personal computer or PDA(Personal Digital Assistant) provide the digital signal 605 with n-bit width, and it is correspondingly converted to analogue signal (current signal or voltage signal) for excitation laser 603 by digital/analog converter 601.
Required high time resolution is realized by high conversion ratio (sample rate).The conversion ratio of digital/analog converter 601 is proposed high requirement by this.
Exemplarily, if the system of the vertical frequency with the resolution of 640 × 480 picture point, the horizontal frequency of 27kHz and 1.18kHz described above is observed, then digital/analog converter 601 must provide for the temporal resolution less than 280ps, and thus position resolution error is below 1%.
This means the bandwidth requirement of the 3GHz of the conversion ratio to digital/analog converter 601 and digital interface.
If this electronic installation can realize completely, necessarily extremely complex, be with lossy, and be expensive.Further it is noted that: it is required that the circuit shown in Fig. 6 and consequent expense are respectively directed to each laser instrument, and thus makes associated cost double.
The task of the present invention is in that, it is to avoid drawbacks discussed above, and provides a kind of simple, efficient and tolerable error and with low cost projection probability when particularly in " flying spot " mode.
This task solves according to the feature of the method and apparatus for projecting at least one light beam of the present invention.The improvement project of the present invention is also obtained by the specific embodiment of the method and apparatus of described at least one light beam of projection.
A kind of method for projecting at least one light beam is proposed in order to solve this task, the persistent period that keeps of at least one picture point is partly extended by least a part of which relative at least one other picture point, the first information of picture point changes according to the second information, and the first information of wherein picture point is changed into so that obtaining the second information when obtaining at least one follow-up picture point.
Propose a kind of device for projecting at least one light beam to solve this task, comprising: delay-level, can at least in part the persistent period that keeps of at least one picture point be extended relative at least one other picture point by this delay-level;And for improving the unit of contrast, wherein the first information of picture point can change according to the second information, and the first information of picture point is amenable to so that obtaining the second information when obtaining at least one follow-up picture point.
Proposing a kind of method for projecting at least one light beam to solve this task, the maintenance persistent period of at least one picture point is partly extended by least a part of which relative at least one other picture point.
When particularly in flying-spot method, projection beam moves in phase on the image plane.As set forth above, the speed of projection beam changes according to the position of the picture point to show.Thus, than the picture point of the edge on perspective plane, there is shorter duration (i.e. projection beam have at this corresponding higher speed) in the picture point at the middle part of the row on perspective plane.
This effect compensates effectively in the following way: especially all following points is introduced and keeps the persistent period: these have bigger duration compared with the picture point that wherein projection beam has maximal rate.
May be used for including the projection beam of multiple light beam in this proposed scheme, or each single light beam can also be respectively used to.
Term " keep persistent period " especially includes value (at least one laser instrument of such as at least one light beam modulation electric current) or the information of picture point.
Fundamental clock, carrys out the digital unit of drive circuit by it.
One expansion scheme is in that: the location of projection according to corresponding picture point, extends the maintenance persistent period of at least one picture point at least in part.
Advantageously, the persistent period is kept level can be kept to extend by least one sampling.
Especially, persistent period and fundamental clock is kept to regulate asynchronously.Thus it is not necessary that: fundamental clock is each possible integer many times keeping the persistent period.Thus can advantageously reduce maximum required operating frequency or the fundamental clock of digital unit.
One improvement project is: at least one digital/analog converter is used for encouraging at least one light beam,
-wherein digital/analog converter fundamental clock drive,
-wherein extend maintenance persistent period of at least one picture point in the following way at least partly: determine pixel clock according to fundamental clock, wherein extend the maintenance persistent period of at least one picture point based on pixel clock.
Especially, an improvement project is: pixel clock is corresponding to the integer many times of fundamental clock.
Advantageously, the maintenance persistent period can be asynchronous with fundamental clock and pixel clock.

Especially, memorizer can include the sampling maintenance level of two alternative excitations.
One expansion scheme is to arrange at least two digital/analog converter, and they alternately encourage light beam, for the first information and second information of picture point being compared.
At this, digital/analog converter undertakes the function of memorizer, and its mode is alternately to compare the output signal of digital/analog converter.

Additionally, an improvement project is: at least one light beam is parameterized for making compensating image error.
Such as, so can the static alignment error of compensatory light or laser instrument or optics.Due to this inexactness, for instance define the possible skew between the light beam of multiple light sources (laser instrument that such as three colors are different) on the plane of delineation (projection plane).Thus, the different point on perspective plane is illuminated by light source in the previously given moment.This error is along with the illumination duration reduced and therefore increases constantly along with higher resolution.
It is capable of the compensation of this alignment error (namely less than in the region of picture point) in obtained subpixel area in this proposed scheme, without complicated and high cost mounting technique.

Detailed description of the invention
Scheme described herein is especially capable of in the signal path between digital/analog converter and output stage or drive circuit effectively reduce correlated error spatially by delay-level that is programmable or that adjust in an analog fashion.
This realizes especially by following manner: the output signal of digital/analog converter keeps previously given duration so that time of staying geometry corresponding with the picture point in the image projected or position correspond to the correct display of picture point about ground.
In addition, in the problem that this proposed scheme allows to solve limited edge slope as follows: the information (such as amplitude or brightness) of each picture point changes according to the information (such as amplitude or brightness) of at least one follow-up picture point, especially its mode is deduct the fall time needed for the edge of decline from the nominal time of this picture point at the end of picture point.
Thus effectively prevent the clear and definite space correlation losing picture point on the projection surface due to limited edge slope.
Another favourable scheme is in that the combination of solution.For reducing the solution of spatially-correlated errors and optimizing the time of the contrast each picture point of impact by compensating limited edge unit.
In addition, it is proposed that compensate the alignment error in vertical subpixel area by controlling the time of each picture point.
Improvement to spatial coherence
Fig. 7 illustrates the circuit block diagram carrying out excitation laser 703 by delay-level 706.
There is the digital signal 705 of n-bit width by digital/analog converter 701(DAC) convert analogue signal to, it is delayed by time by adjustable delay-level 706 and amplifies by the driver for excitation laser 703.This laser instrument 703 is connected to power supply 704(VDD with its positive pole) on.
Thus obtain, for driving the asynchronism having a mind between fundamental clock and the pixel clock of digital/analog converter 701, in this pixel clock, wherein showing corresponding picture point.
Such as, if it is assumed that be the system (wherein for the micro mirror that projection beam deflects is had the horizontal frequency of 27kHz and the vertical frequency of 1.18kHz) of the resolution with 640 × 480 pixels, then digital/analog converter 701 has the temporal resolution less than 280ps, and thus local resolution error (or association error) is below 1%.
Resolution error stretches corresponding to the space having error of pixel on a projection plane.
What thus obtain is according to the time quantization of each picture point in the middle part of the image of Fig. 8.
Associating of the picture point that figure 9 illustrates time range and determine.
For projecting the picture point (such as with the picture point of coordinate (width, highly) 320,240) at capable middle part, for the time range needed for this picture point n corresponding to fundamental clock.This is by the fact that obtain: picture point n is needed to the shortest time range occurred in the picture point of all projections, because projection beam is with the maximum inswept picture point n of speed.
Thus, the time range T of picture point npDetermine the persistent period of fundamental clock, drive digital/analog converter by this persistent period.
Such as, when the image frequency rate of vertical 1.18kHz and horizontal 27kHz and 640 × 480 resolution obtain the fundamental clock of 56MHz because the described time range to picture point n is 18ns.
In order to reach previously given precision when the time of each single picture point associates with position, according to the time range Δ t that the time range of Fig. 9, the picture point n+1 time range than picture point n is extra greatlyp
According to this example, extra time range Δ tpIt is set to 280ps, so as to realize the association error below 1%.
Additionally, the time range 2 Δ t that time range that the time range of picture point n+2 is than picture point n+1 is extra greatlyp.Accordingly, for picture point to edge in the middle part of image, required extra time range pointwise becomes much larger.From the picture point m determined, extra time range is:
m·Δtp=Tp
This means: pixel clock can reduce by half from picture point m, because being suitable for:
m·Δtp+Tp=2 Δ Tp
Advantageously, the time basis (reference clock) of whole system is chosen so as to the integral divisor of time range (pixel clock) of picture point that it is shortest time.
Such as, 4 bit interface with the fundamental clock of 112MHz may be used for excitation delay-level.
The model for two-dimensional shown in Fig. 6 can also be applied to other schemes of mirror system equally.
Figure 10 illustrates the circuit block diagram for carrying out excitation laser 1008 by (programmable) delay-level 1001, and this delay-level includes time-controlling arrangement 1005 and switch 1004.
With the digital signal 1010 of n-bit width by digital/analog converter 1002(DAC) convert analogue signal to and be applied on switch 1004.The digital stimulus signal 1011 of time-controlling arrangement 1005 controls switch 1004 so that the analogue signal of digital/analog converter 1002 is mapped on the corresponding time range of picture point.
The outfan of switch 1004 is connected with output stage, and this output stage includes driver 1007, laser instrument 1008 and the power supply 1009 for laser instrument.
Switch 1004 includes so-called sampling and keeps level.Even if input value is no longer applied to sampling keeps level, this sampling keeps level keep analog input value or stored the previously given time period.
Time-controlling arrangement 1005 carrys out parametrization by pumping signal 1011, value according to control signal 1011 encourages switch 1004, and therefore realizes sampling and keep the delay corresponding to pumping signal 1011 of level.
The following describe time-controlling arrangement 1005 and possible realization thereof and expansion scheme.

Voltage change process Ui、UaAnd UbIt is shown in the sequential chart of Figure 12.
Utopian sequential at Figure 12 there is shown: input signal UiRising edge cause voltage UbDuration Δ t is transformed to " 0 " by " 1 ".Correspondingly, input signal UiTrailing edge cause voltage UaDuration Δ t is transformed to " 1 " by " 0 ".
Figure 13 illustrates the circuit block diagram of the pulse optionally producing width that can be previously given for edge.
Figure 13 includes frame 1303, and it corresponds essentially to the circuit block diagram according to Figure 11.With Figure 11 the difference is that, in frame 1303 replace input signal UiIt is applied with (pretreated) pixel clock 1301.Additionally, corresponding delay-level can regulate by control signal (control parameter) 1302.The outfan of frame 1303 has the signal 1304(voltage U replacing Figure 11b) and signal 1305(replace the voltage U of Figure 11a) available.
The unit 1306(pulse generator for producing pulse it is connected to after frame 1303), it includes two phase inverters 1307 and 1309 and NAND gate 1308 and NOR-gate 1310.Signal 1304 is directly connected with NAND gate 1308 on one side, is connected with NAND gate 1308 by phase inverter 1307.Signal 1305 is directly connected with NOR-gate 1310 on one side, is connected with NOR-gate 1310 by phase inverter 1309.
The outfan of NAND gate 1308 is connected with the SET input (arranging input) of trigger 1314 by phase inverter 1311.The outfan of NOR-gate 1310 is connected with the RESET input (the RESET input) of trigger 1314.Trigger 1314 is especially embodied as rest-set flip-flop.
The signal intercepted on the outfan of NAND gate 1308 is called signal 1312, and the signal intercepted on the outfan of NOR-gate 1310 is called signal 1313.The Q output of trigger 1314 intercepts pumping signal 1315.
Figure 14 illustrates and Figure 13 association, especially relevant with picture point n, n+1 etc. and fundamental clock sequential chart.
For picture point n, fundamental clock is synchronize with pixel clock 1301, because such as picture point n is below figure picture point: when this picture point, projection beam has maximum speed and therefore provides the minimum time period for this picture point n in all picture point.
Signal 1304 describes the output signal of the first delay-level.From logical zero to logical one, in each transition of (rising edge), logical zero pulse is produced following when for signal 1304: signal 1305 is logical zero in this moment at pixel clock 1301.This, for picture point n+4 situation really not so (when the rising edge of pixel clock 1301, signal 1305 is logical one), is absent from trailing edge thus in signal 1304 at this.
Signal 1305 has the transition to logical one at each trailing edge of pixel clock 1301.
The pulse width of signal 1304 and 1305 and control signal 1302(are referring to Figure 13) relevant.
The short pulse that the rising edge (transition from logical zero to logical one) of signal 1304 and the trailing edge (transition from logical one to logical zero) of signal 1305 produce respectively according to signal 1312 and according to signal 1313 rushes.These pulses for carrying out set (by signal 1312) and resetting (by signal 1313) by trigger 1314.
Signal 1315 on the Q output of trigger 1314 keeps level for excitation samples.
The program has the advantage that sampling keeps the pumping signal 1315 of level and fundamental clock asynchronous, and thus can reach the high position resolution of optical projection system.Thus, sampling keeps the pulse width of the pumping signal 1315 of level can change and consider following situation: the picture point (" picture point n ") in portion has shorter duration compared with the picture point of the edge of the image in projection in the picture, and especially the duration of picture point n increases towards direction, edge.
At this, the pulse width ratio for the logical one pulse of picture point n is little for the pulse width of the logical zero pulse of picture point n+1.This means: the pulse width of logical one pulse and the pulse width of logical zero pulse continue to increase to image edge in the middle part of the image of the image of projection.
If the pulse width of this pumping signal 1315 needs the integer many times (such as in fig. 14 for picture point n+4) of the cycle duration of fundamental clock, then pixel clock 1301 reduces by half (from picture point n+5, pixel clock 1301 reduces by half relative to picture point n+4), wherein the edge of pixel clock 1301 is the time reference of the circuit according to Figure 13, and thus signal 1304 and 1305 is correspondingly generated by the pixel clock 1301 after changing from picture point n+5.
The edge of pumping signal 1315 determines the sampling according to Figure 10 and keeps the control signal 1401 of level.By control signal 1401 each pulse by Figure 10 switch 1004 make pulses duration.Thus the output valve of digital/analog converter is sampled maintenance level storage in this duration, and is transmitted to output stage 1006.The signal of output stage 1006 illustrates as signal 1402 in fig. 14.
The width of pulse passes through the control signal 1302(of digital interface referring to Figure 13) determine.This be capable of each picture point needed for time range carry out precise time with the relevant position of picture point on the projection surface and associate.
Owing to the duration of each picture point increases continuously towards border area in the middle part of image, it is possible that (such as the there are 4 bit widths) digital interface that is that instead of be provided with controlled enumerator, the delay needed for the difference of its independently previously given picture point.This has the advantage that the width that can reduce data/address bus.
The improvement of contrast
Figure 15 illustrates the figure of the time course with the pumping signal for laser instrument, wherein encourage the change of persistent period can carry out according to the modulation rise time of electric current needed for laser instrument or fall time and picture point content.
Figure 5 illustrates when do not have presented herein for compensate scheme the excitation of laser instrument.Without compensation, it is impossible to adjacent picture point is separated clearly.
And the compensation according to Figure 15 allows to separate clearly adjacent area: each picture point needs duration Tp.Obtaining rising edge or trailing edge by the limited switch time of laser instrument, they are respectively necessary for the duration t determinedc.This duration tcEspecially information-related with picture point, for instance follow-up or preceding picture point amplitude or brightness.
The information (amplitude or brightness) being capable of substantially picture point being had been for when the duration of picture point expires follow-up picture point in this proposed compensation is adjusted.
This particularly in the amplitude of follow-up picture point less than the amplitude of present image point when be suitable for.
Thus be achieved that at adjacent or spatially ensuing picture point time range TpBefore beginning, finish the amplitude fading of picture point to adjacent or the spatially amplitude of ensuing picture point value.
By following relevant to intensity I expression formula, this characteristic can be described:
Contrast defines:
K = I max - I min I max + I min
Contrast ratio:
Kv : 1 = I max I min : 1
Figure 16 illustrates a table, and it is for compensating and illustrating contrastively such as this tittle of contrast, contrast ratio, maximum intensity and minimum strength without situation about compensating.
In order to reach 100% from the 0% of maximum intensity, it is necessary to the time t shown in Figure 16rf.In practice it is preferred to trfAssume following duration: maximum intensity needs this duration to reach 90% from the 10% of its value.Additionally, this be assume that simplifiedly linear rise (scope also for 0% to 100%).
Figure 17 A illustrate the rise time with edge or fall time relevant, with compensating (curve 1701) and without the comparison of contrast compensating (curve 1702).
Figure 17 B illustrate the rise time with edge or fall time relevant, with compensating (curve 1703) and without the comparison of contrast ratio compensating (curve 1704).
Figure 17 C illustrates the rise time with edge and fall time is relevant, the energy loss that caused by the edge of compensating non-linear and luminance loss 1705.
Such as, at the curve shown in Figure 17 A, 17B and 17C based on following parameter:
Tp=18ns
Parameter AOffset/AmaxOwing to the impact of ambient light and the space of projection beam are stretched and produced.
By the comparison of Figure 17 A and the curve of Figure 17 B, via compensation described herein, form the obvious improvement of contrast or contrast ratio in identical edge slope situation.So, for instance when considering the edge slope of 2ns, and compared with the contrast of balanced 98% or the contrast ratio of 90:1, obtain and such as do not having the contrast of balanced 85% or the contrast ratio of 15:1.
If such as to reach the contrast ratio of 90:1, then thus obtain rise time or the fall time of 2ns when the luminance loss of 5% by described compensation method, or not by compensation method when the energy loss of 0% less than 200ps.
Thus it can be seen that the contrast ratio of 90:1 can not be obtained when not being used in this proposed compensation method.The intensity loss caused by compensation method can be compensated by the coupling of the modulation electric current of laser instrument.
Figure 18 illustrates the circuit block diagram carrying out excitation laser 1808 by the unit 1813 for improving contrast.
With the digital signal 1810 of n-bit width by digital/analog converter 1802(DAC) convert analogue signal to and be applied on switch 1801 and switch 1804.The sampling that switch 1801 includes being triggered by signal 1814 keeps level, and switchs the 1804 samplings maintenance levels including being triggered by signal 1815.
The outfan of switch 1801 is connected with switch 1812.The outfan of switch 1804 is connected similarly to switch 1812, and its breaker in middle 1812 outputs it, by switching signal 1816, the outfan held with switch 1801 and is connected or is connected with the outfan of switch 1804.
The outfan of switch 1801 and the outfan of switch 1804 are connected with the input of the unit 1813 for improving contrast respectively, and the outfan of unit 1813 is switch 1812 offer switching signals 1816.
Time-controlling arrangement 1805 is by digital stimulus signal 1811 parametrization, and wherein each outfan of time-controlling arrangement 1805 respectively provides signal 1814, signal 1815 and signal 1817 for encouraging the unit 1813 for improving contrast.
The outfan of switch 1812 is connected with output stage 1806, and this output stage includes driver 1807, laser instrument 1808 and the power supply 1809 for laser instrument.
Switch 1801 and 1804 in figure 18 respectively includes or describes sampling keeping level, as the storage link of simulation, the output voltage of digital/analog converter 1802 is stored previously given duration (it is especially greater than the duration shown needed for each picture point) by it.
Two this samplings being provided with switch 1801 and 1804 forms in figure 18 keep level.Correspondingly, it is possible to there is multiple switch or storage level.
The range value of the range value of current picture point Yu follow-up picture point is compared by the unit 1813 for improving contrast.The switching instant of switch 1812 is determined according to the amplitude difference between the range value being stored in switch 1801 and 1804.
Switch 1812 is switching between the signal being applied on switch 1801 and 1804, and the signal that will turn on is transmitted to output stage 1806.
Switch 1801 and 1804 is time controlled device 1805(, and it is especially embodied as digital processing level) encouraged by signal 1814 and 1815.Time-controlling arrangement 1805 especially digital interface by imaging system carrys out parametrization.
At this, parametrization especially includes the previously given system features determined, for instance the edge slope determined.
Switch 1812 is switched over according to the magnitude of voltage being stored in switch 1801 and 1804 by the unit 1813 for improving contrast by signal 1816, and obtains control signal 1817 from time-controlling arrangement 1805.
Figure 19 illustrates the sequential chart of projection that associate, based on the checkerboard pattern according to Fig. 4 with Figure 18.
Immediately preceding for the duration T needed for follow-up picture point n-2pBefore beginning, close switch 1804.This is by for encouraging the pulse 1901 of the signal 1815 of switch 1804 to represent.
Accordingly, there are the information relevant to the amplitude of picture point n-2 and output stage 1806 can be transmitted to by switch 1812.
At the latest in the moment:
T1=Tp-tc
The image information of picture point n-1 keeps level to carry out buffer memory by the sampling of switch 1801.
Thus, for being used for the unit 1813 improving contrast at moment T1The information relevant to the amplitude of the amplitude of current picture point n-2 and follow-up picture point n-1 is provided.Thus, the unit 1813 for improving contrast may determine that the switching instant of switch 1812 when known edge slope.
Thus effectively compensate for the fuzzy effect between each picture point, and thus improve the contrast between the picture point of different brightness consumingly.
Duration tcEstimation can carry out approx at the situation next stage of hypothesis below: input signal UiSaltatory change time, electric current ILaserRising be linear about the time.Thus it is suitable for approx:
t c = | I n - 1 - I n - 2 | I max - I min · t rf
Wherein I represents intensity and trfRepresent the time risen on edge or edge decline is required.
The situation of higher modulation electric current is needed than current picture point n-2, it is preferable that obtain for follow-up picture point n-1:
tc=0。
This means: only when two adjacent picture point have luminance difference, the time range of picture point just mates.The method is used for improving efficiency or brightness of image.
Figure 20 illustrates sequential chart from Figure 18 association, picture point based on different brightness projection.Especially, picture point n-1 only has the brightness slightly reduced relative to picture point n-2.
The rising edge of signal 1814 and 1815 is for the time synchronized with fundamental clock.Signal 1816 preferably corresponds to again the signal operated by delay link.
Time difference between the rising edge and the rising edge of signal 1816 of signal 1815 and between the rising edge and the trailing edge of signal 1816 of signal 1814 is relevant with the image information of picture point in succession according to color.
Following exemplary ground considers the transition of picture point n-2 to picture point n-1.
When the clearest and the most definite, the amplitude difference between two picture point in succession is corresponding to the maximum dynamic response of output stage 1806 in time.Owing to may assume that by constant electric current ILaserThe parasitic capacitance of laser diode is recharged, is to produced the edge of the finite slope running through electric current by laser diode.Maximum rise time or fall time are corresponding to the duration t between the rising edge and the trailing edge of signal 1816 of signal 1814r.Maximum rise time or fall time are known preferably for system.
Duration tcShow output signal ILaserNeed how long to set up or eliminate the amplitude difference between adjacent picture point.Time difference between the rising edge and the trailing edge of signal 1816 of signal 1814 is thus derived as:
Δt=tr-tc
Amplitude peak between neighbor map picture point is poor, this time difference Δ t=0.
In from picture point n to the transition of picture point n+1, this relation is shown in fig. 20.
Thus, it is possible to consider duration trAnd time buffering, this time buffering is eliminated according to amplitude difference.
Especially, thus at duration trAnd there is relation between amplitude difference so that duration tcRecalculated by electronic installation during transition every time from a picture point to next picture point.Preferably, this carries out in real time.
Corresponding to the form of implementation that above-mentioned and between signal 1816 and 1814 relation is relevant, it is possible to describe the relation between signal 1815 and 1816.
Figure 21 illustrates an alternative expansion scheme for carrying out excitation laser 2112 by the unit 2107 for improving contrast.
Figure 21 illustrates two digital/analog converters 2101 and 2102, and they are applied separately with Digital Image Data 2104 and 2105.Switch 2108 switches between the analog output of digital/analog converter 2101 or 2102, and the analogue signal being respectively turned on is connected with output stage 2110.
Output stage 2110 includes driver 2111, laser instrument 2112 and the power supply 2113 for this laser instrument.
Additionally, be provided with time-controlling arrangement 2103, it is by digital signal 2106 parametrization, and wherein the outfan of time-controlling arrangement 2103 provides signal for the unit 2107 being used for improving contrast.
Unit 2107 for improving contrast includes two inputs, and one of them is connected with the outfan of digital/analog converter 2101 or 2102.Outfan for improving the unit 2107 of contrast provides signal to encourage switch 2108.
The advantage of the circuit according to Figure 21 is in that: can save according to the switch 1801 and 1804 of Figure 18, because the range value of adjacent picture point is provided by digital/analog converter 2101 and 2102 respectively, and is kept in the previously given time period.
At this, advantageously: the digital/analog converter 1802 relative to Figure 18 of each maximum required processing speed in digital/analog converter 2101 and 2102 is reduced, therefore provide the following time period for digital/analog converter 2101 and 2102 to change:
2·Tp-tc
As set forth above in conjunction with Figure 18 and 19, the switch 1812 in switch 2108(Figure 18) switching and pixel clock asynchronous.
Figure 22 illustrates the sequential chart associated with Figure 21.The pixel clock being changed in time-controlling arrangement 2103 double.This frequency improves and is preferably electronically undertaken by edge triggered flip-flop, and this trigger reacts along with state change optionally trailing edge and rising edge to input clock.
For the expression simplified, in fig. 22 pixel clock is shown as constant.
Especially, only the trailing edge of double pixel clock can also be considered as time basis to simplify.The amplitude difference determined by the unit 2107 for improving contrast converts the delay (signal 2201 referring in Figure 22) of double pixel clock to by analog circuit.
By primary signal and signal 2201 combination being obtained the selective pulse in edge by gate.
Figure 11 and Figure 12 has illustrated the level producing have the selective pulse in the edge determining width.
The width of the pulse generated is at this corresponding to the delay Δ t of two signal lines or propagation time difference, and described signal line terminates in gate (NAND or NOR).Thus, it is provided that two edges are as reference: the trailing edge of the output signal of the rising edge of double pixel clock and the delay circuit set forth.Both cause the switching of the switch 2108 in Figure 21 or the switch 1812 in Figure 18.Thus, it is possible to successfully carry out digital actuation.
Combination: improve spatial coherence and improve contrast
Scheme suggested above can advantageously combination with one another.
Such as, contrast can be improved by the function of the unit for improving spatial coherence described above, and this unit is preferably time controlled device excitation and excitation switch (switch) in self.
Spatial coherence is closed at least one switch by parametrization and is kept level to realize with the sampling of this at least one being connected as described.
Correspondingly, correlation error can also compensate in time-controlling arrangement.
Compensation to alignment error
Figure 10 illustrates that the one of the spatial coherence for picture point possible solution.If the parametrization of time-controlling arrangement 1005 is by correspondingly previously given, then obtain the corresponding predeformation of the image of projection.
In sub-pixel scope, the alignment error of Optical devices or laser instrument can be compensated (namely in the scope less than a picture point) at least in part by predeformation.
If alignment error such as on the projection surface causes the image-region being illuminated respectively of each laser instrument to be more or less the same in a picture point, then the image information of digital source can postpone to carry out pretreatment by by each lasing light emitter each other so that error is compensated (namely picture point is correspondingly correctly imaged onto on perspective plane) by electronic installation.
Additional advantage:
It is capable of separating the high time requirement of the conversion ratio of data-interface and digital/analog converter with the amplitude modulation(PAM) to respective sources (especially laser instrument) in this proposed scheme.
The program allows the laser projection system provided based on " flying spot " method when improving picture quality, because can when little error with high temporal resolution and thus with high position resolution display picture point.
Another advantage is that the more simple and favourable technology realizability of digital/analog converter, and reduce the requirement of the interface to imaging system, because the time quantization of picture point that need not be the shortest and the multiplication thus without processing speed.
Additional advantage is that required delay need not realize specific to color and therefore can pass through the interface with little bit width by the parametrization of each delay-level of three kinds of colors.
Alternatively, it is also possible to: postpone to carry out individually for each color so that the inexactness of the installation of such as respective sources can compensate by correspondingly controlling time-multiplexed method.
It has the additional advantage that, high contrast can also be realized when edge slope being had and comparing significant impact.Thus the requirement of the simulation electronic device for short switch time and edge precipitous accordingly is reduced.Additionally, the requirement of the technology of the analog driver circuitry providing modulation electric current is reduced.
