Observer's sight line is affected, it is impossible to obtain front true for blocking of barrier in prior art The technical problem of real field scape, the present invention provides a kind of lighting engineering innovatively, implements this skill Captured multiple image can be processed by the method for art or system, it was predicted that goes out and is hidden by barrier The scene parts of gear, then projects this part scene and makes observer visible.This technique avoids Preceding object thing block the impact for observer's sight line, thus provide removal for observer Front real scene after barrier.
In the present invention, observer refers to observe people or the equipment of frontal scene.Such as at sleet In weather, observer is probably the traveling person in sleet, drives the driving of vehicle/ship Member or the monitoring device of monitoring front road conditions;When field lighting or projects images, observer It is probably performance spectators or shoots with video-corder the equipment of performance;In illumination search process, observer may It is searcher or search equipment etc..
In the present invention, barrier refers to that affecting observer observes people or the thing of front real scene Body.Such as in sleety weather, barrier is probably the movements such as raindrop, snowflake, ice cube Wisp;When field lighting or projects images, barrier be probably walk about in place people, The vehicle etc. of movement;In illumination search process, barrier is probably the small-sized of shelter target thing Fixing object etc..
In one detailed description of the invention of the present invention, it is provided that a kind of means of illumination, such as Fig. 1 institute Showing, the method comprises the steps: scene capture step S1, the scene in shooting n frame front Image;Scene prediction step S2, according to above-mentioned n frame scene image, it was predicted that the (n+1)th frame field The local blocked by barrier in obstructions chart picture in scape image and the (n+1)th frame scene image Scene image;And scene simulation step S3, the image of above-mentioned local scene image will be included Project front.
According to above-mentioned means of illumination, captured n frame scene image can be processed, it was predicted that Go out the scene parts that n+1 frame (subsequent time) is blocked by barrier, then project this part field Scape makes observer visible to front.It will be understood by those skilled in the art that owing to answering various With in the implementation process of scene, the method step of the present invention is likely constantly circulated execution, Therefore observer constantly can observe based on the multiple image shot before and eliminate obstacle Front real scene after thing, it is to avoid the blocking for observer's sight line of preceding object thing Impact.
In other detailed description of the invention follow-up, additionally provide and can implement the right of above-mentioned means of illumination Answer illuminator, the most below, " illuminator " all refer in particular in the present invention with above-mentioned photograph Specific illumination system corresponding to bright method.
Below, each step of above-mentioned means of illumination is discussed in detail in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
(1) scene capture step S1, the scene image in shooting n frame front.
In above-mentioned scene capture step, described n frame scene image refers in illuminator extremely Lack the image capture device image according to the n width frontal scene of certain Timing acquisition, in order to The content in the (n+1)th frame scene image is predicted in subsequent step.Those skilled in the art are permissible Understand, the utilization of term " frame " is only used for picture count, with shooting image time interval without Close.Wherein, the shooting interval between n two field picture can be by those skilled in the art according to obstacle The factors such as thing characteristic, image capture device performance, system data disposal ability freely set, both This n two field picture can be shot, it is also possible to not solid with Fixed Time Interval (fixing frame per second) Fixed time interval shoots this n two field picture.Such as process time delay more than image acquisition in data During equipment frame per second, so that it may the time interval shot by increase is adjusted, it might even be possible to lose Abandon part shot but have little time process scene image, as long as field, n frame front can finally be obtained Scape image is for subsequent step.
In the specific embodiment of the invention, n is the integer more than 1.Those skilled in the art can To understand, n value is the biggest, it is possible to predict (n+1)th based on more scene image before Content in frame scene image, thus improve precision of prediction, but it is likely to consume bigger simultaneously Numerical computations amount and operation time.Those skilled in the art can set according to actual needs The concrete value of n.
Seen from the above description, the (n+1)th two field picture non-shooting gained, but based on captured N frame frontal scene image predicted and obtained, this time point corresponding to the (n+1)th two field picture exists After front n two field picture shooting time and corresponding with the scene simulation time, this time point also with n frame Shooting interval between image is unrelated.
In this scene capture step, it is possible to use various image capture devices well known in the art Implement shooting operation, such as, include ccd sensor or cmos sensor etc..This image Collecting device may be at mobile status or static during sequential shoot n frame scene image State.Such as, when advancing in sleet, this image capture device is mountable to traveling person Illuminator in or be installed in the illuminator on the vehicle of traveling, ship, traveling across Journey carries out the shooting of scene image;When field lighting or image project, this image acquisition sets In the standby illuminator being mountable to fix, under static state carry out the shooting of scene image; In illumination search process, this image capture device is mountable to the illuminator that searcher carries On, search process carries out the shooting of scene image.
Owing near infrared light has differentiation nearly distant view, the function of raising scenery identification degree, at this Invent in a preferred implementation, during this scene capture, can arrange forwards according to Penetrate a near-infrared light source of near infrared light so that this image capture device can shine near infrared light Shoot n frame scene image in the case of penetrating front, thus obtain more preferable shooting effect, improve Barrier identification in the scene.
(2) scene prediction step S2, according to above-mentioned n frame scene image, it was predicted that the (n+1)th frame The office blocked by barrier in obstructions chart picture in scene image and the (n+1)th frame scene image Portion's scene image.
In this scene prediction step, multiple image captured in scene capture step is entered Row processes to dope the scene parts blocked by barrier, and this is for will be hindered in subsequent step The scene parts hindering thing to block is presented to observer and is provided the foundation.
In the application scenarios such as sleety weather, barrier is probably mobile object and illuminator can Mobile status can be also in;In the application scenarios of field lighting or projects images, barrier It is probably mobile object and illuminator is likely to be at resting state;In the applied field that illumination is searched Jing Zhong, barrier is likely to be at resting state but illuminator is likely to be at mobile status.By This is visible, and barrier, illuminator in the specific embodiment of the invention are all likely to be at various In kinestate, therefore for the prediction of next frame image information, it is necessary to from multiframe before Image identifies the letter relevant with barrier kinestate, illuminator displacement state Breath, these information are called " barrier exercise data " in the specific embodiment of the invention " displacement data ".In scene prediction steps, based on above-mentioned displacement data and Barrier exercise data predicts the obstructions chart picture and (n+1)th in the (n+1)th frame scene image The local scene image blocked by barrier in frame scene image.
As it is assumed that the prevailing scenario in scene image is in resting state, the present invention one In detailed description of the invention, by comparing n frame scene image and background motion therein can be detected Identify the displacement data of illuminator.Those skilled in the art can use in prior art The classic algorithm of background separation and motion detection can be realized to realize above-mentioned identification (such as paper Zhang X,Li H,Qi Y,et al.Rain removal in video by combining temporal and chromatic properties[C]//Multimedia and Expo,2006IEEE International Conference on.IEEE, algorithm etc. described in 2006:461-464.).
The different motion state being according to illuminator under different application scene, such as move or Static etc., the above-mentioned displacement data identified potentially include the displacement of illuminator Track, the displacement direction of each frame, displacement speed, displacement attitude, illumination system One or more in the self-position of system.
In one detailed description of the invention of the present invention, by comparing n frame scene image and can detect The barrier wherein moved carrys out cognitive disorders thing exercise data.Those skilled in the art can use Can realizing Moving Objects detection in prior art, to separate the classic algorithm of prospect above-mentioned to realize Identify (such as paper Zhang HongJiang, Atreyi Kankanhalli, and StephenW. Smoliar.“Automatic Partitioning of Full-motion Video.”Multimedia Systems1, no.1 (1993): algorithm etc. described in 10 28.).
The different motion state being according to barrier under different application scene, such as, move or quiet Only etc., the barrier exercise data identified potentially includes Robot Bar Movement Track, each frame In the barrier direction of motion, barrier movement velocity, barrier athletic posture, Obstacle Position One or more.
According to one detailed description of the invention of the present invention, as in figure 2 it is shown, walk in described scene prediction In Zhou, the prediction of scene image content can be carried out with following steps:
Step 21: merge in n frame scene image not according to the barrier exercise data that identified The part blocked by barrier, forms the scene baseline image of n-th frame scene image.
In this step, those skilled in the art can be according to barrier in each frame scene image The part do not blocked by barrier in barrier motion capture each frame scene images such as position, And utilize maximum likelihood algorithm well known in the art (such as paper Van Wie P, Stein M.A landsat digital image rectification system[J].Geoscience Electronics, IEEE Transactions on, algorithm etc. described in 1977,15 (3): 130-137.), close Become the part do not blocked by barrier in each frame scene image, to form n-th frame scene image Scene baseline image.This scene baseline image of n-th frame scene image does not comprise any obstacle Thing, reduces the real scene after eliminating barrier impact in n-th frame scene image.
Step 22: according to the displacement data the identified scene to n-th frame scene image Baseline image converts, to predict the scene baseline image of the (n+1)th frame scene image.
In this step, those skilled in the art can be according to the displacement rail of illuminator The displacement data pair such as mark, displacement direction, displacement speed, displacement attitude The scene baseline image of the n-th frame scene image formed in step 21 converts, with in advance Survey the scene baseline image of the (n+1)th frame scene image.This conversion can use well known in the art Video Motion Detection described in MPEG2 standard and prediction algorithm realize.(n+1)th frame This scene baseline image of scene image does not the most comprise any barrier, it was predicted that gone out (n+1)th Frame scene image eliminates the real scene after barrier impact.
Step 23: displacement data and barrier exercise data according to being identified are to n-th Obstructions chart picture in frame scene image converts, to predict in the (n+1)th frame scene image Obstructions chart picture.
Obstructions chart in n-th frame scene image seem shooting n-th frame scene image after known 's.In this step, those skilled in the art can according to the self-movement locus of illuminator, Displacement data and the barriers such as displacement direction, displacement speed, displacement attitude Thing movement locus, the barrier direction of motion of each frame, barrier movement velocity, barrier is hindered to be transported Obstructions chart picture in n-th frame scene image is become by the barrier exercise datas such as dynamic attitude Change, to predict the obstructions chart picture in n+1 frame scene image.This conversion can use and step Video Motion Detection same in 22 and prediction algorithm are implemented, and but differ in that, it was predicted that As it is assumed that the prevailing scenario in scene image is in quiet during the scene baseline image of the (n+1)th frame Only state and do not change, thus only consider illuminator displacement, and predict the The obstructions chart of n+1 frame as time be all likely to be at mobile status due to illuminator and barrier, It is thus desirable to consider both displacement and barrier motion simultaneously.
Step 24: according to scene baseline image and the (n+1)th frame field of the (n+1)th frame scene image Obstructions chart picture in scape image, calculates the office blocked by barrier in the (n+1)th frame scene image Portion's scene image.
In this step, according to predicting the (n+1)th frame scene image of obtaining in step 22 Scene baseline image and the obstacle predicted in step 23 in the (n+1)th frame scene image obtained Object image, those skilled in the art just can be calculated in the (n+1)th frame scene image by obstacle The local scene image that thing blocks.It will be understood by those skilled in the art that this local scene image Just in the scene baseline image of the (n+1)th frame scene image with the barrier of the (n+1)th frame scene image Hinder the part that object image position is corresponding, namely will be by barrier in the (n+1)th frame scene image The region blocked.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that in the present invention for each in scene prediction step S2 Step is compiled with step 21-step 24, is only that numbering form distinguishes each step to facilitate for respectively Quoting and illustrating of step, does not represent the inevitable execution sequence between step.People in the art Member can perform above steps with flexible sequential under conditions of technical feasibility, the most permissible By step 23 and step 21,22 perform, even in step 21, execution etc. before 22 simultaneously.
Under some application scenarios, although can assume that in scene image, prevailing scenario is in static State and do not change, but when illuminator is in the mobile status of fair speed, institute Still can change between prevailing scenario in the multiframe scene image of shooting.In order to solve this Problem is to eliminate above-mentioned change for the harmful effect of image procossing in scene prediction step, at this Inventing in a preferred implementation, this scene prediction step may further include a pair in step Suddenly, according to the displacement data identified, to the n-1 in addition to n-th frame scene image Frame scene image carries out three-dimensional conversion so that n-1 frame scene image before and current n-th frame Scene image realizes content alignment, the most just compensate for caused by the movement of illuminator Change between prevailing scenario.Those skilled in the art can use image of the prior art to align Algorithm (such as paper Van Wie P, Stein M.A landsat digital image rectification system[J].Geoscience Electronics,IEEE Transactions on,1977,15(3): Algorithm etc. described in 130-137.), implement above-mentioned three-dimensional conversion.
