Abstract

The present invention relates to an optical input device capable of judging the property of a reflecting surface. Firstly, light source equipment projects incident light to the reflecting surface; based on the reflection law, the incident light projected to the reflecting surface respectively forms reflecting light or diffused light or refracted light, wherein a first optical sensing device of the optical input device can receive partial diffused light in order to calculate total diffused light; a second optical sensing device can sense the reflection light; a microprocessor calculates the energy value of the refracted light according to the law of conservation of energy. Further, whether light rays pass through the reflecting surface to form the refracted light is judged. If the light rays pass through the reflecting surface, the reflecting surface is made from light transmission material. In reverse, the reflecting surface is not made from the light transmission material.

In sum, because the present invention is provided with first OPTICAL SENSORS to come the sensing diffusion light, set up second OPTICAL SENSORS come the sensing reflected light on the reflected light path in optical input device, and according to the energy value of law of conservation of energy with the calculating refract light, so optical input device can be judged the character and the degree of roughness of reflecting surface automatically by the refract light energy value that is calculated, immediately switch to suitable use pattern in order to optical input device, significantly expand the applicable field of optical input device, improve and use flexibility ratio and simplicity.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the cut-open view that the embodiment of the invention is applied to optical mouse inside;
Fig. 2 is the one-tenth phase synoptic diagram of incident light in the optical facilities of the embodiment of the invention.
Embodiment
For the clearer explanation of energy technology contents of the present invention, as follows especially exemplified by a preferred embodiment.
See also the enforcement state of Fig. 1 preferred embodiment of the present invention, the optical input device of present embodiment is an optical mouse 1 preferably, Fig. 1 shows that the bottom of optical mouse 1 offers an opening 10, and the inner space group is provided with a light supply apparatus 11, a guiding device 12, one first OPTICAL SENSORS 13, one second OPTICAL SENSORS 14 and a microprocessor 15.Wherein, light supply apparatus 11 is preferably a LED crystal particle (LED Die), or can be other equivalent luminophors.
As shown in Figure 1, the incident light 1 that the light supply apparatus 11 of present embodiment is projected is to be set in parallel with reflecting surface 2, and incident light 1 just can corresponding be projected to first lens 121 of guiding device 12, after first lens 121 focus on incident light 1, by the reflection of first prism 123 and second prism 124, accurately guide, make it 10 to be projected on the reflecting surface 2 incident light 1 by opening of optical mouse 1.Wherein, be noted that light supply apparatus 11 also can be arranged at guiding device top, but guiding device need do appropriateness and adjust design, be beneficial to receive incident light 1, and incident light 1 led be projected to reflecting surface 2; Certainly light supply apparatus 11 also tiltable be arranged at optical mouse 1 inside, in order to incident light 1 directly or via being projected to after the lens focus on the reflecting surface 2.
As shown in Figure 2, according to reflection law, incident light 1 will correspondence produce one reflected light R1 on reflecting surface 2 after projecting reflecting surface 2, and wherein, the angle of incident light 1 and reflecting surface 2 equals reflected light R1 and 2 formed angles of reflecting surface.In addition, based on the light diffusion principle, so incident light 1 is after touching reflecting surface 2, except generation reflected light R1, also can be subjected to the influence and then the generation complete diffusion light (Lambertian) in various degree of the reflecting surface 2 of unlike material, for example when reflecting surface 2 was minute surface, incident light 1 will reflect fully and produce reflected light R1, does not produce or produce micro-diffusion light; And when reflecting surface 2 materials were the magnesian coarse plane of white, then incident light 1 will spread fully.Certainly, if reflecting surface 2 itself has light through characteristic (for example for glass material), then part incident light 1 will penetrate through reflective face 2 and form refract light.
See also Fig. 2, show after incident light 1 is projected to reflecting surface 2, form the synoptic diagram of reflected light R1, refract light Rr and diffusion light L respectively.As shown in the figure, incident light 1 will form one reflected light R1 and form the diffusion light L of complex trace scattering to all the winds and part incident light 1 may penetrate through reflective face 2 and form refract light Rr on reflecting surface 2 on the reflecting surface 2.Wherein, first OPTICAL SENSORS 13 is to be arranged at directly over the opening 10, be projected to the diffusion light L of first OPTICAL SENSORS 13 after focusing on via second lens 122 in order to receiving unit, and according to complete mathematical model that complete diffusion light had, to calculate the energy summation f (L) of diffusion light L: 14 of second OPTICAL SENSORS are arranged on the reflected light R1 path of the incident light 1 that is projected corresponding to light source 11, in order to receive and to calculate the energy value of reflected light R1.Wherein, second lens 122 are to be coaxial setting with first OPTICAL SENSORS 13.
Based on law of conservation of energy, microprocessor 15 can be according to following formula to calculate the energy value of refract light Rr:
The refract light Rr=incident light 1-total diffusion light f of reflected light R1-(L)
If energy value>0 of refract light Rr, expression reflecting surface 2 is made by a light-permeable material, transparent material normally, so the light supply apparatus 11 of optical mouse 1 is analysed the incident light 1 that projects almost all can penetrate through reflective face 2, therefore first OPTICAL SENSORS 13 and second OPTICAL SENSORS, the 14 received reflected light R1 that reflect from reflecting surface 2 will level off to zero.Therefore, under the limited prerequisite of received reflected light R1, optical mouse 1 is difficult to produce suitable photosignal and controls its start, so microprocessor 15 will start a switching machine system in order to optical mouse 1 is switched to the pattern of start on the reflecting surface 2 that is adapted at transparent material.
Otherwise, if energy value=0 of refract light Rr, expression reflecting surface 2 is made by the material of light-permeable not, then first OPTICAL SENSORS 13 of optical mouse 1 can be directly judged by diffusion light 1 that inhomogeneous and nick that reflecting surface 2 surfaces are had shows especially and is resembled, the ratio that promptly calculates reflected light R1 and total diffusion light f (L) is to learn the degree of roughness of reflecting surface 2, with distance and the direction that determines that optical mouse 1 moves.
The foregoing description only has been to be convenient to explanation and to give an example, and the interest field that the present invention advocated is from should being as the criterion so that patent claim is described, but not only limits to the foregoing description.
