Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a smooth light output system and a controller, and more particularly, to a smooth light output system and a controller for controlling an LED lamp.
Background
The phenomenon of change in the sensitivity of the human eye to light is called photopic adaptation. When a person suddenly enters a dark place in a bright environment for a long time, the person cannot see anything initially, and after a certain time, the visual sensitivity gradually increases, and the person can gradually see an object in the dark place, which is called dark adaptation (dark adaptation). In contrast, when a person suddenly enters a bright place in a dark place for a long time, the person initially feels a bright light, cannot see an object clearly, and can restore vision only for a while, which is called light adaptation (light adaptation).
Dark adaptation involves two basic processes: changes in pupil size and changes in retinal photosensitizing chemicals. In the process from light to dark, the diameter of the pupil can be enlarged from 2 mm to 8 mm, so that the light entering the eyeball is increased by 10-20 times. The process of adaptation is fast, usually in a few tens of seconds. From dark to bright, under the stimulation of strong light, cone cells in the retina are immediately put into work, the cone cells which work at the beginning are few, and the sensitivity of eyes to the light stimulation is very high, so that the eyes feel dazzled by light, and the surrounding scenery cannot be seen clearly. The intensity of the light emitted by the LED lamp per unit area is particularly bright, the light source can reach the highest brightness instantly when the LED lamp is started, and the light source is easy to suddenly make pupils have no time to react when the light is changed suddenly, so that the retina is permanently damaged by the instant light.

The LED light source 10 may be an array of one or more LED units, and the output power of the LED light source 10 is switched according to the instruction of the controller. In a practical embodiment, the LED light source 10 may be an indoor lighting lamp such as an LED ceiling lamp, an LED down lamp, an LED bulb, an LED ceiling lamp, an LED tube, an LED panel lamp, or the like, or may be an outdoor lighting lamp such as an LED projection lamp, an LED street lamp, or the like, and the application embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
The light sensor 20 is used for detecting the ambient light source, and converting the brightness of the ambient light source into a sensing signal to be transmitted to the controller 30. The light sensor 20 may be, for example, an image sensor (CMOS), a bolometer, a photo-coupled device (CCD), a photodiode, a photo-resistor, a photo-transistor, etc., and is not limited in the present invention.
The controller 30 is connected or coupled to the LED light source 10 and the light sensor 20 to receive the sensing signal of the light sensor 20 and control the output power of the LED light source 10 according to the sensing signal. The controller 30 may be, for example, a general-purpose or special-purpose Microprocessor (Microprocessor) programmable by a central processing unit (cpu), a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), a programmable controller, an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a single chip RF system (RF-SoC), or other similar devices or combinations thereof, which are not limited in the present invention. The controller 30 may be configured with a storage unit, which may be utilized to store, for example, parameters, Look-up tables (Look-up tables), or fault records. The storage unit may be, for example, an Electrically-Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM), which is not limited in the present invention.
In one embodiment, the controller 30 mainly includes an analog-to-digital converter 31 and an adaptive optical adjusting module 32. The analog-to-digital converter 31 is connected to at least one input terminal a1, the input terminal a1 is connected or coupled to the light sensor 20, and the analog-to-digital converter 31 receives the sensing signal from the light sensor 20 and converts the sensing signal from an analog form to a digital form. The adaptive light adjusting module 32 is connected to at least one output terminal A2, the output terminal A2 is connected or coupled to the LED light source 10, and the output signal of the output terminal A2 is adjusted accordingly according to the sensing signal received by the controller 30 from the light sensor 20 as a control variable. In one embodiment, one or more electromagnetic relays 40 are disposed between the controller 30 and the LED light source 10, and the controller 30 determines the operating power input to the LED light source 10 by controlling the electromagnetic relays 40.
The following description is directed to a specific calculation method of the adaptive optical adjusting module 32 according to the present invention, and a preferred embodiment is shown: after the controller 30 receives the start signal from any input port (or communicator), the adaptive light adjusting module 32 of the controller 30 modulates the output time-varying signal according to the following formula:
Y[n]＝f{X[n]×α+(1-α)×Y[n-1]}；
wherein X [ n ] is the sensing signal at the nth stage, Y [ n ] is the time-varying signal outputted at the nth stage, Y [ n-1] is the time-varying signal outputted at the nth-1 stage, α is the smoothing parameter between [0,1], and f { } is the Rounding function.
The received sensing signal can be rounded to a specified length or significance using a Rounding function, such as a Floor function, a Ceil function, a Round function, an Int function, or an Int + sign function, to provide a value of significant output. Referring also to FIG. 2, an exemplary table of the routing function is shown:
wherein the functions are defined as follows:
floor function: the function value (f (x)) is returned to a parameter value not greater than the variable value (x) to the specified number of bits.
The Ceil function: the function value (f (x)) is returned to a parameter value of not less than the variable value (x) to a specified number of bits.
Round function: the function value (f (x)) is the value of the variable (x) rounded to the specified number of digits.
Int function: if the variable value (x) is greater than or less than 0, the function value (f (x)) is unconditionally dropped to a specified number of parameter values; if the variable value (x) is equal to 0, the function value (f (x)) is equal to 0.
Int + sign function: if the variable value (x) is greater than or less than 0, the function value (f (x)) is unconditionally carried to the parameter value of the designated digit; if the variable value (x) is equal to 0, the function value (f (x)) is equal to 0.
As shown in the table, when the number of the specified bits is an integer, the function value obtained by the Floor function is { -4, -3, -2,1,2,3} when the parameter values of the sensing signal are { -3.5, -2.9, -1.1, 2.9, 3.5} respectively; the function values obtained via the Ceil function are { -3, -2, -1,2,3,4 }; the function value obtained via the Round function is { -4, -3, -1,1,3,4 }; the function value obtained via the Int function is { -3, -2, -1,1,2,3 }; the function values obtained via the Int + sign function are { -4, -3, -2,2,3,4 }. In the embodiment, the number of the designated bits is an integer, but may be adjusted to other designated numbers according to the requirement of the actual or hardware, and is not limited in the present invention.
Therefore, the adaptive light adjusting module 32 can adjust and correct the output signal of the output end through the detected ambient light source, so as to adjust the ambient light source to the corresponding output brightness in a gradual change manner under the condition that human eyes cannot feel the step-like change in the adaptability of the ambient light source.
In conclusion, the invention can smooth the output of the LED light source, avoid the damage of the eyes of the user by the high-intensity light source at the moment of turning on the lamp and increase the comfort level of the eyes of the user.
