Definitions
- the invention relates to a camera arrangement for a motor vehicle with a camera arranged in the vehicle interior behind a vehicle window and with a beam guide element which is arranged between the vehicle window and the camera, which has or forms a prism, wherein the camera has an electronic camera sensor with a pixel array.
- the front windshield referred to as a windshield
- a windshield is located at a relatively shallow angle (about 20 ° to 25 °) to the horizon for aerodynamic and aesthetic reasons. Therefore, one in horizontal
- Light guide can be coupled without refraction or with only a small refraction to the inside of the vehicle window, so that the beam path is modified in an advantageous manner.
- such light guide can also cause geometric distortions and disturbing color aberrations.
- This object is achieved in that the optical properties of the camera and the prism are matched to one another such that caused by the dispersion of the prism within the wavelength range detected by the camera maximum
- Beam broadening on the camera sensor is within a pixel size of the pixel array.
- the camera assembly according to the invention is particularly inexpensive to produce, since it manages with only a single prism.
- the invention is based on the consideration that blurring or chromatic aberrations are only recognizable by the dispersion of the prism when a point of an object detected by the camera is imaged on different pixels of the camera sensor of the camera. Therefore, aberrations of optical elements go unnoticed as long as they remain below the pixel size.
- optically effective surfaces of an optical prism are usually so flat that no discernible defect is created by the residual unevenness.
- material of an optical prism is usually so homogeneous that this also causes no recognizable error. So if a simple prism (as opposed to a
- dispersion compensating arrangement of a plurality of prisms is used in front of the lens or in front of the lens of the camera, a deterioration of the image quality is to be expected mainly by the dispersion properties of the prism material. Different wavelengths are deflected differently by the prism, so that then the angles of incidence on the camera sensor are different. So that the light rays of all
- Prism angle should be so small that the difference of the angle of incidence on the camera sensor remains below the resolution limit.
- the optical properties of the camera and the prism are therefore suitable to match. In this case, go from the prism of the refractive index of the prism material and its change
- Dispersion of the prism maximum possible beam broadening can not be greater than a pixel of the camera sensor.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematically illustrated camera arrangement
- FIG. 2 shows a sketch of the resolution capability of a camera sensor
- FIG. 3 shows a sketch of the beam expansion through the dispersion of the camera
- FIG. 1 shows the basic arrangement of the components of FIG
- the arrangement consists of a prism 3 and a camera 7, wherein the camera 7 is arranged such that it looks through a vehicle window 2, that receives light from the outside of the vehicle window 2.
- the beam path 1 extends from the vehicle window 2 to the camera 7 through the prism 3 and through an optical medium 4 located between the prism 3 and the camera 7.
- air is provided as the optical medium 4.
- the camera 7 consists of at least one lens 6 and a light-registering camera sensor 5.
- the lens 6 has at least one focusing-acting lens.
- further optical, electronic or mechanical components, in particular a housing, may also be components of the camera 7.
- the course of three parallel incident light beams 1 is shown in Figure 1, which meet approximately horizontally on the outside of the inclined against the direction of incidence vehicle window 2.
- the light beams 1 are refracted towards the Scheibenlot.
- the prism 3 is arranged on the inside of the vehicle window 2, the prism 3 preferably has an identical or similar refractive index as the vehicle window 2, and is optically coupled to the vehicle window 2, so that in the transition region between the vehicle window 2 and the prism 3 virtually no angular deflection of the light beams 1 takes place.
- the after passing through the prism 3 still parallel to each other extending light beams 1 are focused by the camera lens 6 on the camera sensor 5 of the camera 7.
- the prism 3 shown in FIG. 1 has a relatively small size
- refractive angle ß does not have the wedge shape typical for prisms, but is designed as a plate with non-plane-parallel major surfaces. You can also think of this prism 3 as a one-piece
- FIG. 2 illustrates the resolving power of the camera sensor 5 of a camera.
- the lens 6 Representative of the lens 6, a single lens 6 'is shown. Dashed lines indicate the main plane of the lens 6 'and the optical axis of the camera.
- a camera sensor 5 At a distance of the focal length f of the lens 6 ', a camera sensor 5 in cross section recognizable. It is assumed that the camera sensor 5 consists of a pixel array p, not shown as an individual part.
- FIG. 3 firstly illustrates, in a greatly simplified, purely qualitative representation, the development of chromatic aberrations in an arrangement with a prism.
- incident light in a prism is decomposed into the spectral colors contained in the light.
- incident light in a prism is decomposed into the spectral colors contained in the light.
- the different colors or wavelengths exit the prism at different angles of deflection.
- the angle range covered thereby can be estimated for visible light by the deflection angle ocbiau of the shortest wavelength light refracted the most and the deflection angle ro t of the weakest refracted longwave light.
- the camera arrangement it is not the spectrum of the incident light that is relevant, but only that of the light which can also be detected by the camera arrangement. Due to the transmission properties of eg the vehicle window 2 or the objective 6 and the spectral
- Sensitivity of the camera chip 5 the spectrum of the detected light is normally reduced compared to the spectrum of the incident light.
- ocbiau and ro t therefore mean the deflection angles of the light with the shortest and the longest detectable wavelengths.
- the resulting numerical values for these deflection angles depend not only on the dispersion profile of the prism material used but also on the geometry of the prism and on the angle of incidence of the light into the primate 3 and can be determined computationally or experimentally for the particular arrangement.
- the dispersion-broadened beam is thus reduced to a width of .mu.m on the camera sensor
- Dispersion broadening smaller than the pixel size p of the camera sensor 5 remains:
- the resolution caused by the pixel size p represents a sensible limit for the entire camera optics.
- the lens 6 '(or the objective 6) does not need to have a resolution which lies below the pixel size p. Also errors of other optical elements are irrelevant, as long as the whole
- Image error remains below the pixel size p.
