Specific implementation mode
The invention discloses with a kind of assisted focused method, it is applied to video camera, is realized the invention also discloses corresponding The assisted focused device of this method.Since the other structures of video camera are not the emphasis of the present invention, this patent is not retouched in detail herein It states, but basic structure design need to ensure that the laser beam that range finder module is sent out can be in the central area of video camera imaging, in this way The object distance of test is exactly the weight regions focused, ensures the validity of object distance.
Fig. 1 is the assisted focused method schematic diagram in first embodiment of the invention, and the assisted focused method of the present invention is based on Laser ranging mainly includes the following steps:N times laser ranging obtains n object distance information;Optimal object is determined from this n object distance Away from;Corresponding change zoom and focus is issued according to the optimal object distance and follows curve, is focused automatically.
In the present embodiment, 3 n, i.e. ranging step execute 3 times, and optimal object distance is determined from 3 object distances.Obviously, originally The those of ordinary skill in field can adjust the value of n as needed.
The process of laser ranging includes;Laser is emitted to object, and receives reflected laser, according to the laser Transmitting and reception time difference, calculate distance of the object apart from the video camera, i.e. object distance.Specifically, first by laser Generator launches the laser, and the part in the laser is opened by optical system and amplification and rectification circuit flip-flop number Beginning timing;The laser is mapped to object back reflection and returns, and is received by laser pickoff, the part in the laser received The counter is triggered by optical system and amplification and rectification circuit and stops timing, can be calculated according to the output of the counter Go out the object distance.
Determine that the mode of optimal object distance is as follows:According to above-mentioned n object distance, issues the corresponding change zoom and focus of n items and follows curve, To carry out image definition test;Then it selects with the object distance corresponding to highest image definition evaluation value as optimal object Away from.The specific method of wherein image definition test includes:By the zoom motor operation of video camera behind a certain fixed position, root Becoming zoom and focus according to every follows curve, the focus motor of video camera to be separately operable corresponding focal position;It is poly- for each The image taken the photograph on burnt position calculates its clarity evaluation of estimate;Being finally will be corresponding to the highest image of clarity evaluation of estimate Object distance is as the optimal object distance.
It is followed under curve in the method for corresponding image definition evaluation value in above-mentioned test n items change zoom and focus, it is described The a certain fixed position that the zoom motor operation of video camera arrives is focal length end position.In other embodiments, can also Other positions, focal length end are not required.
Automatic focus steps are to follow curve according to the change zoom and focus issued according to above-mentioned optimal object distance, by the change of video camera Times motor and focus motor focal position are moved respectively to the specific position calculated, to keep focusing surface total with photosensitive element Face obtains preferable clear image, realizes and focuses.
Fig. 2 is the assisted focused method schematic diagram in second embodiment of the invention, in this method and first embodiment The main distinction of assisted focused method be that laser ranging step Exactly-once obtains an object distance, then directly issues The corresponding change zoom and focus of the object distance follows curve, is focused automatically.In comparison, the process for determining optimal object distance is omitted. The embodiment is the accuracy in view of laser ranging, it is believed that only surveys an object distance and accuracy is higher.Specific laser Ranging step is identical with the laser distance measurement method in first embodiment, repeats no more.
The present invention also provides the assisted focused device of the above-mentioned assisted focused method of correspondence, which includes laser ranging mould Block and zoom focusing module, can refer to shown in Fig. 3.
The laser ranging module for emitting laser, and receives by the reflected laser of object, swashs according to described The transmitting of light and the time difference received, calculate object distance.
In the assisted focused method of above-mentioned first embodiment, the laser ranging step of the laser ranging module executes N times, obtain n object distance, in the n object distance that the zoom focusing module is used to calculate from the laser ranging module It determines optimal object distance, and corresponding change zoom and focus is issued according to the optimal object distance and follows curve, then focused automatically. The method of determination of specific optimal object distance had been introduced above, was not described in detail.
In the assisted focused method of above-mentioned second embodiment, the laser ranging step of the laser ranging module executes 1 time, 1 object distance is obtained, the zoom focusing module issues corresponding change zoom and focus according to the object distance and follows curve, Automatically it is focused.
The assisted focused device of the present invention further includes control module, and the control module is mainly realized to entirely imaging The control of machine system, the control module are communicated by spi bus with the laser ranging module, and the object distance information is obtained, And the object distance information is passed into zoom focusing module.
Be discussed in detail the above-mentioned laser ranging module of the lower present invention again below, the laser ranging module include control power supply, The parts such as laser generator, laser pickoff, optical system, amplification and rectification circuit, counter, sample circuit.The Laser Measuring Detailed process away from module ranging is as follows:After receiving distance measuring instruction, laser ranging module enters ranging working condition, aforementioned Control module sends out reset signal, and the gain that above-mentioned counter resets counting and realize amplification and rectification circuit is made to control, Above-mentioned laser emitter is triggered at this time sends out pulse laser.The fraction laser that aforementioned laser generator is emitted by sample circuit Opto-electronic conversion is carried out, as the enabling signal that control circuit ranging counts, this hour counter starts counting up.Other most of laser It is mapped to target to reflect and gather in laser pickoff, carries out opto-electronic conversion, and processing is amplified through amplification and rectification circuit, pass It is defeated by the door signal that control circuit is counted as ranging, counter stops counting, can be calculated according to the output of counter The distance of object to be measured.The measurement result of distance, i.e. an object distance information, are saved in microcontroller after calculating, and are transferred to described Control module.
The assisted focused device of the present invention utilizes laser ranging module, can accurately obtain object distance, reduces preferred object distance and knows Other time can more embody quick assisted focused ability and the imaging of the design especially in the case where low photograph, more scenes, strong laser field close The advantages of fine definition.
Those skilled in the art can be obvious, can to the present invention the above exemplary embodiments carry out various modifications and modification and Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.Accordingly, it is intended to which present invention covering is made to fall in the appended claims and its equivalence techniques Modifications of the present invention in aspects and modification.
