In this camera module array, first the first camera module 10 and the second camera module 20 is utilized to capture the image of a light source, and then produce one first image 51 and one second image 52, wherein this first camera module 10 and the second camera module 20 can be positioned in same plane or Different Plane, and carry out computing and storage by a processing unit 41 and a storage element 42, wherein this processing unit 41 and storage element 42 can be contained in an electronic installation or in the second camera module 20.
Processing unit 41 is utilized to calculate one first red image yield value for the first image 51 and the second image 52, one first green image yield value, one first blue image yield value, one second red image yield value, one second green image yield value and one second blue image yield value, wherein the first red image yield value equals the result that the first green image data and the first red image data are divided by, first green image yield value equals the result that the first green image data and the first green image data are divided by, first blue image yield value equals the result that the first green image data and the first blue image data are divided by, second red image yield value equals the result that the first green image data and the second red image data 64 are divided by, second green image yield value equals the result that the first green image data and the second green image data 65 are divided by, second blue image yield value equals the result that the first green image data and the second blue image data 66 are divided by, its citing example as shown in Table 1, in table one first image 51 and the second image 52 under same light source the image data of pixel one of in the image that captures, its unit is brightness value.
Table one. the image data of the first image and the second image and image yield value
According to the first red image yield value, first green image yield value, first blue image yield value, second red image yield value, second green image yield value and the second blue image yield value are to obtain the red image gain scale 79 of the second image, green image gain scale 80 and blue image gain scale 81, wherein red image gain scale 79 equals the result that the second red image yield value and the first red image yield value are divided by, green image gain scale 80 equals the result that the second green image yield value and the first green image yield value are divided by, and blue image gain scale 81 equals the result that the second blue image yield value and the first blue image yield value be divided by.This red image gain scale 79, green image gain scale 80 and blue image gain scale 81 are then stored in storage element 42.Its citing data as shown in Table 2.
Table two. the image gain scale of the second image
When the image that the first camera module 10 and the second camera module 20 capture external environment condition is again to produce the 3rd image 53 and the 4th image 54, Automatic white balance algorithm 91 one of now can be utilized in processing unit 41 to calculate the red adjustment of image gain 85 of the 3rd image 53, green adjustment of image gain 86 and blue adjustment of image gain 87, and Automatic white balance algorithm 91 can comprise the known techniques such as Median CutAlgorithm, Voronoi Diagram.Its citing data as shown in Table 3.
Table three. the white balance gains of the 3rd image
Now the second green image data 65 of red image data 64, second and the second blue image data 66 only need be sent in processing unit 41 and calculate by the second camera module 20, can produce red adjustment of image data, green adjustment of image data and blue adjustment of image data.Wherein these red adjustment of image data equal red image gain scale 79, red adjustment of image gain 85 and the second red image data 64 carry out the result that is multiplied, green adjustment of image data equal green image gain scale 80, green adjustment of image gain 86 and the second green image data 65 carry out the result that is multiplied, and blue adjustment of image data equal blue image gain scale 81, blue adjustment of image gain 87 and the second blue image data 66 carry out the result that is multiplied.
Further, processing unit 41 according to these red adjustment of image data, green adjustment of image data and blue adjustment of image Data correction the 4th image 54 to produce a correcting image 89, this correcting image 89 is made to have identical white balance image feature with the 3rd image 53, make this correcting image 89 and the 3rd image 53 can together for follow-up image procossing, as carried out combination image or setting up a 3D image.Its citing data as shown in Table 4, can be found out that by table four brightness of its image data of correcting image 89 calculated equals the brightness value of the 3rd image.
Table four. the image data of the 3rd image and correcting image
2nd figure is the flow chart of steps of the camera module bearing calibration of another embodiment according to the present invention.Step S1 utilizes the first camera module and the second camera module to capture the image of a light emitting source to produce the first image and the second image respectively.Step S2, according to the second red image data of first of the first image the red image data, the first green image data and the first blue image data and the second image, the second green image data and the second blue image data, calculates one first red image yield value, one first green image yield value, one first blue image yield value, one second red image yield value, one second green image yield value and one second blue image yield value respectively.Detailed yield value account form as described in above-described embodiment, therefore does not repeat at this.
Step S3 calculates the red image gain scale of the second image, green image gain scale and blue image gain scale.Step S4 system, when the image that the first camera module and the second camera module capture external environment condition is again to produce the 3rd image and the 4th image, produces the red adjustment of image gain of the 3rd image, green adjustment of image gain and blue adjustment of image gain.Its producing method is as shown in above-described embodiment and table three.
Red image gain scale, red adjustment of image gain are carried out being multiplied in the hope of red adjustment of image data with the second red image data by step S5, green image gain scale, green adjustment of image gain are carried out being multiplied in the hope of green adjustment of image data with the second green image data, and blue image gain scale, blue adjustment of image gain are carried out being multiplied in the hope of blue adjustment of image data with the second blue image data.Step S6 by processing unit according to red adjustment of image data, green adjustment of image data and blue adjustment of image Data correction the 4th image to produce correcting image, make correcting image and the 3rd image have one of identical image feature.Its result is as described in above-mentioned table four, and the 3rd image 53 has identical brightness value with correcting image 89.
Comprehensively the above can be learnt, each camera module in camera module array can be allowed to produce the image of same brightness or color through the camera module bearing calibration of the present invention, and then produce consistent image feature, and amount of calculation can be made not increase progressively with the increase of camera module quantity thereupon.
Although the present invention shows especially with reference to its exemplary embodiments and describes, usually know that the knowledgeable understands by for art tool, the various changes in form and details can be carried out it under the spirit not departing from following claim and the present invention that equivalent defined thereof and category.
