Particularly, infrared transmitter module 110, can be configured the infrared light launching first wave length scope.Usually, infrared light belongs to invisible light, and wave-length coverage is 780nm-10 6nm, its medium wavelength 780nm-1500nm is called near infrared light, and wavelength 150nm-30000nm is mid-infrared light, and mid-infrared light is thermal radiation mainly.30000-10 6nm is far red light, and the infrared light of the present invention's application is near infrared light, that is, the infrared transmitter module 110 of depth camera device 100 is configured the infrared light of the first wave length scope of launching is near infrared light.In addition, in one embodiment, infrared transmitter module 110 can comprise Infrared laser emission device, and described Infrared laser emission device can be configured to launch near-infrared laser.In another embodiment of the present invention, infrared transmitter module 110 can comprise infrarede emitting diode (LED) equipment, and described infrarede emitting diode (LED) equipment can be configured to launch near infrared light.
In addition, in one embodiment of the invention, described infrared transmitter module 110 can also comprise diffraction optical element 111, and described diffraction optical element 111 can be configured and the infrared light that infrared transmitter module 110 is launched is shaped to specific diffraction pattern pattern.When diffraction pattern patterned illumination is to rough object or can form random diffraction speckle after penetrating frosted glass, these speckles have the randomness of height, and can along with the different changing patterns of distance.That is, in space, the speckle pattern at any two places is all different.As long as stamp such structured light in space, whole space is just all marked, and spot pattern can change pattern along with the distance difference of imaging object, marks space when diffraction speckle is irradiated to whole space.Such as, as shown in Figure 1, for the imaging object 130 in imaging space, by the speckle pattern above recognition object 130, the position of imaging object 130 can just be obtained.In addition, the speckle pattern recording whole space in advance is also needed, to do the demarcation of light source.The method of demarcating is: every a segment distance, get reference planes, the speckle pattern in reference planes is recorded.Such as, suppose that the locational space of imaging object is the scope of distance 1 meter to 4 meters, reference planes can be got every 10cm, so can obtain 30 width speckle images through demarcation.
Then, infrared photography module 120 can be configured to obtain the image light in whole imaging object space and generating depth map picture.Particularly, infrared photography module 120 can be configured the infrared speckle image taking scene to be measured, the 30 width reference pictures that this width image and we preserve are done degree of correlation computing successively, we can obtain 30 width degree of correlation images like this, and in space, have the position that object exists, degree of correlation image will demonstrate peak value.These peak values are stacked from level to level, then passes through some interpolation, the depth image of the object in imaging space can be obtained.Infrared photography module 120 can further include: imaging len 121 and black and white image transducer 122.Imaging len 121 is configured the image light of catching whole scene, and described imaging len 121 surface can be formed with the first anti-reflection film, and described first anti-reflection film is for strengthening the intensity in transmission of the light of first wave length scope.Black and white image transducer 122 can be configured with described imaging len optical alignment and directly receive image light and not via any optical filtering, black and white image transducer 122 can produce the signal of telecommunication in response to the full wave light of the image directly received from described imaging len from described imaging len.
