Definitions

  • the invention relates to a lighting device with at least one light source and a display system with such a lighting device.
  • Display systems and their lighting devices are described for example in the publications US 5,633,755 and US 6,323,982.
  • Display systems such as DLP projectors (short for "digital light processing projector"), include a lighting device with a light source whose light is directed to a DMD chip (short for "digital mirror device chip”).
  • the DMD chip comprises microscopically small pivoting mirrors which either direct the light onto the projection surface if the associated pixel is to be switched on or direct the light away from the projection surface, for example onto an absorber if the associated pixel is to be switched off.
  • Each mirror thus acts as a light valve that controls the light flux of a pixel.
  • These light valves are called DMD light valves in the present case.
  • For color generation comprises a DLP projector in the case of a lighting device that emits white light, such as a filter wheel, which is arranged between lighting device and DMD chip and filters of different colors, such as red, green and blue. With the aid of the filter wheel, light of the respectively desired color is transmitted sequentially from the white light of the illumination device.
  • the color temperature of such display systems is generally associated with the color location of the light of the illumination device. This usually changes with the operating parameters of the light sources of the illumination device, such as voltage, current and temperature. Furthermore, depending on the light sources used in the illumination device, the ratio between current intensity and light flux is not necessarily linear. This leads to a change in the current also to a change in the color location of the light of the light source and thus to a change in the color temperature of the display system.
  • the color depth of the display system is limited by the minimum duty cycle of a pixel.
  • dithering in which individual pixels are switched at a frequency lower than the regular frequency of 1/60 Hz.
  • this usually leads to a visible to the human observer noise.
  • the contrast ratio of the display system is defined by the ratio of maximum light flux with fully opened light valves to minimal light flux with fully closed light valves.
  • the minimum light flux can be further reduced with completely closed light valves by means of a mechanical diaphragm.
  • a mechanical shutter takes up space in the lighting device or the display system, increases the weight of the lighting device or the display system, and also provides an additional potential source of interference.
  • Indicate lighting device whose color location can be adjusted specifically. Another object is to provide a display system with such a lighting device. Furthermore, it is desirable to provide a lighting device for use in a display system, with the aid of which the color depth and / or the contrast ratio of the display system can be improved in a simple manner.
  • Preferred embodiments of the illumination device or the display system are specified in the dependent claims 2 to 14 and 16 to 20.
  • An illumination device comprises an operating device which activates at least one light source with an electrical signal in accordance with a light curve stored in the operating device.
  • the term "light curve" is to be understood as meaning a function of the illuminance as a function of time.
  • the operating device generates the electrical signal for controlling the light source in accordance with the light curve, so that the light source generates the respectively desired illuminance.
  • the electrical signal with which the light source is driven it is preferably a current signal.
  • the illumination device can preferably be used in a display system whose colors are driven sequentially.
  • the light flux of the illumination source for each color can advantageously be temporally varied in such a way that when using the illumination device in a display system with sequential color control, the light flux of the illumination device for each color can be adjusted separately in a desired manner such that the color temperature of the display system is adjusted to a desired value.
  • Lighting device has the light curve segments with temporally constant illuminance.
  • the light curve is composed of segments with temporally constant illuminance. This means that for a time t x the light curve has a temporally constant illuminance B x and the following time interval t x + i has a likewise constant illumination intensity B x + I. If the illumination device is used in a display system with sequential color control, a single color of the display system is preferably switched on during the time interval t x and a different color during the subsequent time interval t x + i.
  • the light curve changes to a different time constant illuminance, if for the setting of a certain color temperature a different brightness of this color should be necessary.
  • the light source is supplied with a corresponding electrical signal for each color to adjust the color temperature of the display system to a desired value.
  • the change between the illuminance levels of the individual segments can be achieved for example by a variation of the operating current and / or control of the light sources by means of a pulse width modulated signal (PWM signal).
  • PWM signal pulse width modulated signal
  • a variation of the operating current is preferably used in gas discharge lamps, while PWM signals is generally used for driving light emitting diodes.
  • a pulse width modulated signal preferably a square wave signal within a fixed pitch period for a certain time t e i n the state "on" and for the remainder of the fundamental period t from the "off" state.
  • the ratio of on-time and basic period tein / (t e in + t off ) is called the duty cycle. It indicates the percentage of time over which the square wave signal is turned on within the fundamental period.
  • the light curve contains short segments with very low illumination intensity, the light quantity emitted by the illumination device can thereby be reduced for the same switch-on duration of the light valves, whereby advantageously the color depth of the display system can be increased without, for example, producing visible noise, as in the case described above dithering.
  • the minimum duration that a short segment may have depends on the light valves used. For DMD light valves, this is preferably about 8 ⁇ s, for LCD light valves about 1 ms.
  • LCD light valve refers to a light valve that is realized by means of a liquid-crystalline matrix, the illuminance during these short segments preferably having one of the following values: 50%, 25%, 12.5% Usually an extra bit of color depth.
  • the light curve has a periodic signal whose period is between 16 ms and 20 ms, with the limits included, or consists of such.
  • a periodic repetition with a period between 16 ms and 20 ms offers the advantage that no flicker can be detected for the human eye.
  • the operating device is suitable for purposefully changing the light curve during operation, for example, by a user or by an external control signal.
  • the color locus of the light of the illumination device can be adapted such that the color temperature of the display system in which the illumination device is used is adapted by a user or automatically to a desired application.
  • the operating device scales the light curve in proportion to a predetermined reference value.
  • the average luminous flux of the illumination device can be lowered or also raised by means of the operating device, depending on which color locus of the illumination device is desired for the respective application.
  • the Scaling linear By lowering or raising the luminous flux by means of the light curve, the contrast ratio of the display system in which the illumination device is used can advantageously be improved.
  • the operating device detects operating parameters of the light source.
  • Operating parameters of the light source are, for example, voltage, temperature, current and color of the light. If the operating device stores the dependence of the spectrum of the light source on its operating parameters, the operating device can advantageously regulate the electrical signal for controlling the light source in such a way that changes in the spectrum of the light source are compensated due to changed operating parameters and thus the color locus of the illumination device and the color temperature of the display system in which the lighting device is used is kept constant. Furthermore, non-linearities in the illuminance-current intensity characteristic curve can be compensated dynamically in this way.
  • the operating device keeps the light flux of the light source constant by means of a control loop from the operating parameters of the light source and the predetermined reference value.
  • the color location of the illumination device can advantageously be kept constant.
  • the operating device preferably changes the reference value during operation, for example, on the basis of the input of corresponding values by a human User.
  • the color location of the illumination device can advantageously be changed during operation by a user in the desired manner.
  • the current intensity-illuminance characteristic of the light source is stored in the operating device. This allows the operating device to regulate the electrical signal for driving the light source such that the light flux of the light source is kept constant. Furthermore, it is possible to maintain the relative relationships of the illuminance of individual segments with each other despite a non-linear current intensity-illuminance characteristic. If the illumination device comprises a plurality of light sources, then either a current intensity / luminance characteristic can be stored in the operating device if the light sources all have the same current intensity / luminance characteristic, or a plurality of current intensity / luminance characteristic can be stored in the operating device, if such Light sources have different amperage-illuminance characteristic. The latter is usually the case when light sources of different colors are used in the lighting device.
  • Lighting device comprises this one or more light sources that emit light with a color location in the white area of the CIE standard color chart.

  • a lighting device can be used in particular in a display system that has no color modulator.
  • the colors are generated directly by the light sources, which are sequentially driven in accordance with the light curve with an electrical signal.
  • the light curve in this case has segments with constant illuminance in each case during the time intervals in which the individual colors are turned on. In this way, the brightness of each color is adjusted according to the illuminance of the respective light curve segment, and thus the color locus of the illumination device is set to a desired value.
  • the illumination device comprises a red, a green and a blue light source.
  • a lighting device can generate red, green and blue light sequentially in succession with the aid of the light curve, so that a white color impression is produced in a human observer.

  • the light curve is adapted via a communication interface to the image content to be displayed (in particular the power / average illuminance).
  • the image content to be displayed in particular the power / average illuminance.
  • the operating device adapts the light curve to the speed of the synchronization signal by time scaling.
  • the synchronization signal usually has a frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz and thus corresponds to the frequency of a video signal.
  • the synchronization is performed such that all segments of the light curve are linearly scaled until a full period of the light curve is in a full period of the synchronization signal fits. Thereafter, the phase relationship of the two signals is set to a fixed value.
  • the light curve then usually has a duration of 16.67 ms or 20 ms. If a filter wheel is used, the filter wheel will play all colors between once and eight times during this time.
