Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The embodiment of the laser ranging device is applied to electronic equipment, wherein the electronic equipment can comprise a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, wearable equipment and the like, and the embodiment of the application takes the mobile phone as an example for description.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a laser ranging device 80 according to a first embodiment of the present application. The laser ranging device 80 includes: signal transmitter 10, signal receiver 20 and mirror reflection group 30. Wherein, the signal transmitter 10 is used for transmitting an optical signal, and the signal receiver 20 is used for receiving the optical signal transmitted by the signal transmitter 10. The lens reflection group 30 is disposed on a propagation path of the optical signal of the signal emitter 10 and the signal receiver 20, and is used for changing a propagation path length of the optical signal between the signal emitter 10 and the signal receiver 20. It is noted that the terms "comprises" and "comprising," as well as any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion.
In one embodiment of the laser distance measuring device 80 of the present application, the mirror reflection set 30 is disposed between the signal emitter 10 and the reflector 70 that reflects the light signal emitted by the signal emitter 10. This application adopts laser emission light signal to carry out the communication, also adopts laser to carry out the communication promptly. Wherein, the signal transmitter 10 includes: a laser, an optical modulator and an optical transmitting antenna (not shown), the signal receiver 20 includes: an optical receiving antenna, an optical filter and a photodetector (not shown). The optical signal is reflected by the reflector 70 after being emitted by the laser emitter, and then converted into an electrical signal by the signal receiver 20, and the electrical signal is amplified and demodulated to be converted into original information, so that the original information corresponds to the optical signal of the signal emitter 10. In the embodiment of the present application, since the lens emitting group is disposed between the signal emitter 10 and the reflector 70 that reflects the light signal emitted by the signal emitter 10, that is, the light signal emitted by the signal emitter 10 is reflected by the lens emitting group before propagating to the reflector 70, so as to increase the propagation distance between the light signal from the signal emitter 10 to the reflector 70, and further increase the propagation time between the light signal from the signal emitter 10 to the signal receiver 20.
The signal reflection group includes at least one set of mirror reflection unit groups 310, and the light signal passes through the mirror reflection unit groups 310 to change the propagation path length. In the embodiment of the present application, the signal reflection group includes at least one set of mirror reflection unit groups 310, that is, multiple sets of mirror reflection unit groups 310 are arranged at the same distance, that is, the propagation time of multiple types of optical signals is corresponded. When the mirror reflection group 30 is not disposed between the signal emitter 10 and the signal receiver 20, that is, corresponding to the conventional distance measurement, for example, the distance between the signal emitter 10 and the reflector 70 may be greater than 30 cm. The present invention is applicable to a camera of the electronic device 60, that is, ranging that can be performed corresponding to a conventional distance. When one lens reflection unit is disposed in the lens reflection group 30, the distance between the corresponding camera and the reflector 70 is relatively short, that is, the distance between the corresponding signal emitter 10 and the reflector 70 is within 10cm to 30 cm. When two or even more sets of the lens reflection unit groups 310 are disposed in the lens reflection group 30, the distance between the camera and the reflector 70 may be very short, that is, the distance measurement in the ultramicro range state is corresponded, and the distance between the signal emitter 10 and the reflector 70 may be within 10 cm. The time that the laser travels in the above-mentioned distance is short, and the optical circuit processes the echo signal to estimate the object distance, which results in delay error and time measurement error, according to L-gx (T + Δ T)/2, where L is the propagation distance of the measured optical signal from the signal transmitter 10 to the signal receiver 20. C is the propagation distance of the optical signal in the atmosphere, T is the real propagation time of the laser, and Delta T is the time error generated in the distance measurement process. When Δ T is small enough relative to T, the effect on L will be low, and thus when the distance between the camera and the reflector 70 is small, the time of T will be small, Δ T will be non-negligible relative to T, and T needs to be increased, so that the effect of Δ T on the distance measurement L can be reduced.
The mirror reflection unit group 310 at least includes a first mirror 3110 and a second mirror 3120 that are sequentially disposed, at least one of the first mirror 3110 and the second mirror 3120 is adjustable in angle, and the purpose of changing the length of the propagation path of the optical signal through the mirror reflection unit group 310 is achieved by adjusting the relative angle between the first mirror 3110 and the second mirror 3120.
In the present embodiment, the lens emitting unit group may include a first mirror plate 3110 and a second mirror plate 3120. When the signal reflection set is disposed between the signal emitter 10 and the reflector 70 and the signal reflection set is required to increase the propagation distance of the optical signal, the angle of the first mirror 3110 is adjustable. When the angle of the first mirror plate 3110 is adjusted to be parallel to the second mirror plate 3120, the optical signal is reflected by the first mirror plate and the second mirror plate 3120, thereby increasing the propagation time of the optical signal from the signal emitter 10 to the reflector 70. When the angle of the first mirror 3110 is adjusted such that the light signal emitted from the signal emitter 10 does not pass through the first mirror 3110 and the second mirror 3120, the light signal is directly transmitted from the signal emitter 10 to the reflecting object 70 without being reflected. Specifically, the angle of the first mirror plate 3110 may also be adjusted so that the light signal passes only through the reflection of the first mirror plate 3110 and does not pass through the reflection of the second mirror plate 3120. It is understood that the position of the second mirror plate 3120 may be adjustable in other embodiments.
When the signal emitting assembly is disposed between the reflector 70 and the signal receiver 20, the first mirror 3110 may be adjustable or both the first mirror 3110 and the second mirror 3120 may be adjustable. Specifically, the optical signal is reflected by the reflector 70 and then sequentially reflected by the first mirror 3110 and the second mirror 3120, and then received by the signal receiver 20. In other embodiments, when the first mirror is adjustable, the optical signal may be passed through the first mirror and not the second mirror, or may be passed through neither the first mirror nor the second mirror. The specific application scenario may be set according to an actual application situation, and is not limited herein.

The mirror reflector group 310 includes a first mirror plate 3110, a second mirror plate 3120, a third mirror plate 3130, and a fourth mirror plate 3140; at least two of the first mirror plate 3110, the second mirror plate 3120, the third mirror plate 3130 and the fourth mirror plate 3140 are adjustable in position. The angles and positions of the first mirror plate 3110 and the fourth mirror plate 3140 for receiving the optical signals are adjustable, and the angles of the second mirror plate 3120 and the third mirror plate 3130 for receiving the optical signals are unchanged; the center positions of the first mirror plate 3110, the second mirror plate 3120, the third mirror plate 3130, and the fourth mirror plate 3140 constitute a rectangular structure. When the mirror reflection set 30 is located between the signal emitter 10 and the reflector 70, please continue to refer to fig. 1, the first mirror 3110 is disposed at an angle of at least 90 degrees with respect to the propagation path of the optical signal. The second mirror plate 3120 and the first mirror plate 3110 are disposed in parallel, the third mirror plate 3130 and the second mirror plate 3120 are disposed at an angle of 0-90 degrees, and the fourth mirror plate 3140 and the third mirror plate 3130 are disposed in parallel. The positions of the first mirror 3110 and the fourth mirror 3140 are adjustable, and since the optical signal sequentially passes through the first mirror 3110, the second mirror 3120, the third mirror 3130 and the fourth mirror 3140 for reflection, the direction of the optical signal toward the first mirror 3110 is the same as the direction of the optical signal emitted from the fourth mirror 3140. In other embodiments, for example, after the positions of the first mirror 3110 and the fourth mirror 3140 are adjusted, since there is no reflection of the first mirror 3110, the light signal does not pass through the second mirror 3120 and the third mirror 3130, and the light signal emitted from the signal emitter 10 is not transmitted and received by passing through the mirror emitting group. In other embodiments, the second mirror plate 3120 and/or the third mirror plate 3130 in addition to the first mirror plate 3110 and the fourth mirror plate 3140 may also be positionally adjustable.

At least one of which is angularly adjustable. That is, the position of the first mirror 3110 is adjustable, and the light signal does not pass through the first mirror 3110, the second mirror 3120 and the third mirror 3130. The positions of the first mirror plate 3110 and the second mirror plate 3120 may also be adjustable, and the second mirror plate 3120 is adjusted to be flush with the first mirror plate 3110, so that the optical signal may sequentially pass through the first mirror plate 3110 and the second mirror plate 3120, so as to increase the propagation time of the optical signal between the signal transmitter 10 and the signal receiver 20. The positions of the first mirror 3110, the second mirror 3120 and the third mirror 3130 may be adjustable, so as to adjust the first mirror 3110 to be flush with the third mirror 3130, such that the optical signal is reflected by the first mirror 3110 and then directly reflected to the third mirror 3130, and the position of the second mirror 3120 may be moved to other positions.

s110: identifying the shooting state of the camera module;
identifying shooting states of the camera module, including a first state and a second state; the propagation path length of the optical signal received by the signal receiver in the first state is smaller than that in the second state. It will be appreciated that the first state may be a conventional state, corresponding to a light signal not passing through the path of travel between the set of mirror reflectors from the signal emitter to the signal receiver. And the second state corresponds to the state when the optical signal passes through the mirror reflection group, that is, the propagation distance of the optical signal in the second state from the signal transmitter to the signal receiver is greater than the propagation distance of the optical signal in the first state from the signal transmitter to the signal receiver.
In the present application, the shooting status may specifically include a normal shooting status, a macro status, and an ultra macro status. It can be understood that the optical signal emitted by the signal emitter corresponding to the normal shooting state is directly received by the signal receiver without passing through the mirror reflection group, and the length of the propagation path of the optical signal is not changed in the propagation process. The macro state corresponds to the reflection of the optical signal by the reflection group of the lens, and then the propagation distance of the optical signal between the signal transmitter and the signal receiver is increased. The lens reflection group comprises at least one lens reflection unit group, and if the plurality of lens reflection unit groups are arranged, the propagation time of an optical signal between the signal transmitter and the signal receiver can be longer, so that the optical signal corresponds to a ultramicro range state. Generally, most electronic devices are provided with a set of mirror reflector units, because the electronic devices are limited by the internal space of the electronic devices, but the set of mirror reflector units may include a plurality of reflective mirrors, and the plurality of reflective mirrors may be configured to distinguish the propagation time of the optical signal in the mirror reflector units, so as to distinguish the conventional state, the macro state and the macro state.
S120: controlling the mirror reflection group to be in a position state corresponding to the current shooting state;
for example, in a normal shooting state, the position of the mirror can be adjusted by controlling the motor, so that the light signal does not pass through the mirror reflector group. If the optical signal is in the macro state, the motor is controlled to adjust the reflective mirror so that the optical signal passes through the mirror reflective unit group to adjust the propagation time of the optical signal in the mirror reflective unit group. And if the current state is in the ultramicro range state, controlling the light signal to pass through the plurality of groups of lens reflecting unit groups by controlling the motor.
S130: controlling a signal transmitter to emit a laser beam;
s140: the control signal receiver receives the laser beam emitted by the signal emitter.
