As an example, the laser light source 101 generates the excitation light 201, a portion of the excitation light 201 passes through the blank partition of the wavelength conversion device 105 after passing through the shaping lens unit and the dichroic element 104, and is reflected by the optical path guiding unit and passes through the dichroic element 104 again, another portion of the excitation light 201 is incident on the wavelength conversion device 105 for wavelength conversion to generate the first stimulated light 202 and the second stimulated light 203, and the first stimulated light 202 and the second stimulated light 203 are reflected by the dichroic element 104 and then combined with the excitation light 201; when the laser projection device is switched to the high color gamut mode, as shown in fig. 1, the color filter device 107 filters the first excited light 202 to generate a filtered light 204, and the excitation light 201, the second excited light 202 and the filtered light 204 are combined to output.
Illustratively, when the laser projection device 107 is switched to the high brightness mode, the color filter device stops moving, and the adjusting device adjusts the positions of the designated subareas of the color filter device so that the excitation light and the stimulated light pass through the transmission subareas of the color filter device.
As an example, the subarea positioning means of the color filter device comprises a positioning column-positioning hole combination configured to pass the excitation light and the stimulated light through the transmission subarea.
As shown in fig. 4A and 4B, the positioning column can reciprocate, when the driving of the color filter device 107 is cut off and the rotation speed is reduced to a certain rotation speed, the positioning column is ejected and positioned into the positioning hole, so that the color filter device 107 is fixed, and by arranging the positioning hole at a proper position of the color filter device 107, it can be realized that the excitation light 201, the first stimulated light 202 and the second stimulated light 203 just pass through the transmission subarea when the positioning column is positioned into the positioning hole.
Further, when the laser projection device is switched to the high color gamut mode, the adjustment device cancels the adjustment of the position of the color filter device designated subarea, and the color filter device starts to move, so that the color filter device filters the stimulated light or part of the stimulated light. As an example, when the laser projection apparatus is switched to the high color gamut mode, it is necessary to rotate the color filter apparatus 107, withdraw the positioning post from the positioning hole, and rotate the color filter apparatus 107 by the motor.
Illustratively, when the laser projection device is switched to a high brightness mode, the color filter device stops rotating, and the adjusting device adjusts the color filter device to a first designated position, wherein the first designated position is that the color filter device is not positioned or partially positioned in the optical path range of the excitation light and the stimulated light, so that a high brightness effect is realized.
As an example, the color filter device 107 may be fixed on a displacement device capable of reciprocating, when the laser projection device is switched to the high brightness mode, the color filter device 107 needs to be stopped to rotate, and the color filter device 107 is driven to leave the optical path by the displacement device, and the displacement device may use a linear motion, a rotary motion or other mechanical motion to move the color filter device 107 away from the optical path, as shown in fig. 5B.
Further, when the laser projection device is switched to the high color gamut mode, the adjusting device adjusts the color filter device to a second appointed position, the second appointed position is appointed to enable the color filter device to be located in the range of the light paths of the exciting light and the stimulated light, the high color gamut effect is achieved, and the color filter device starts to move.
As an example, when the laser projection apparatus is switched to the high color gamut mode, it is necessary to rotate the color filter device 107, and then the color filter device 107 is brought back to the optical path by the displacement device, as shown in fig. 5A.
The color filter device 107 is adjusted by an adjusting device, including the position of the transmission subarea or the position of the whole color filter device 107 in the light path, so that the color filtering function of the color filter device can be selectively realized, whether the exciting light and the received laser light are filtered by the color filter device 107 or not is controlled, when the color filter device 107 filters the color, the laser projection device is in a high color gamut mode, and when the color filter device 107 does not filter the color, the laser projection device is in a high brightness mode, therefore, the laser projection device provided by the invention simultaneously meets the output requirements of high brightness and high color gamut.
Illustratively, the driving current of the excitation light and/or the stimulated light is adjusted when the laser projection device is switched from a high color gamut mode to a high brightness mode or from the high brightness mode to the high color gamut mode.
As an example, although the brightness and color gamut of the laser projection device are substantially fixed after the structure of the laser projection device is determined, the brightness and color gamut of the laser projection device can be fine-tuned by adjusting the driving current. Preferably, the control of the driving current in the high color gamut mode and the high brightness mode is realized by adjusting the driving current of each color segment as shown in fig. 6, and the distortion of the white map color caused by the mode switching can be further avoided. Table 1 shows the contrast of the luminance in the high luminance mode with the luminance in the high color gamut mode:
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0001951654850000141
It can be seen that the luminance in the high luminance mode is improved by about 20% over the luminance in the high color gamut mode.
Illustratively, when the laser projection device is switched from the high color gamut mode to the high brightness mode or from the high brightness mode to the high color gamut mode, the picture output of the laser projection device is set to be a dark picture, so that defects which can be seen by a user and comprise flickering, color distortion and the like are avoided in the process of switching the modes.
According to the laser projection device and the control method thereof provided by the invention, the laser light source and the wavelength conversion device are used for generating the exciting light and the received laser light to generate three primary colors, the adjusting device is used for adjusting the color filtering device to selectively realize the color filtering function of the color filtering device, and further, the state switching of the color filtering device for filtering and not filtering the received laser light is realized, so that the switching between the high color gamut mode and the high brightness mode of the laser projection device is realized.
