Description

Device and method for generating illumination of an object

The present invention relates to a device and a method for generating illumination of an object.

State of the art

The need to photograph an object as if it were in a different environment is well known in the art. Typically, this is achieved with large LED areas. For example, EP 1 393 124 B1 discloses a large light surface which is used to generate a desired illumination of an object to be photographed. However, there are many disadvantages, for example that the system is difficult to adapt to different individual lighting situations and the system is very expensive, especially when it comes to large objects to be illuminated.

Description of the invention: task, solution, advantages

The object of the present invention is to improve a device and a method for generating illumination of an object in such a way that objects can be realistically illuminated in an effective, simple and cost-effective manner.

The aforementioned object is achieved by a device for generating illumination of an object, which comprises at least one strip-shaped projection surface. The device preferably comprises exactly one projection surface in the form of a strip. Furthermore, the device can comprise several, for example two, three or four, projection surfaces. The at least one projection surface can be made of foil, Plexiglas or silicone. The width of the projection area relates in particular to less than 20%, most preferably less than 5%, of the length of the projection element.

The device also includes at least one light element for illuminating the projection surface. The projection surface is movably arranged, the device for moving the projection surface at least one Movement device includes. The device also includes a control unit, the control unit being designed to control the light element synchronously with a movement of the projection surface.

A projection surface is to be understood in particular as a rear projection surface. This means that the at least one light element does not illuminate the object directly, but illuminates the projection surface on a rear side viewed from the object, so that the object is illuminated with indirect lighting. In other words, the light element shines onto the projection surface in the direction of the object to be illuminated. The projection surface is preferably a diffuse transmitted light element.

The light element can be, for example, at least one projector, in particular a video projector or beamer. This can illuminate the entire projection surface. Furthermore, the device can have several projectors, which preferably illuminate a previously defined section of the projection surface. Furthermore, the light element can be an LED element, which preferably comprises three light-emitting diodes in the colors red, green and blue, most preferably with an additional diode in the color white. Each light element can be designed as a pixel. Individual LED elements and preferably also the individual light-emitting diodes can be controlled individually, so that light with different intensities and different colors can be mixed.

In particular, the device has a suspension by means of which the projection surface is arranged in a suspended manner. The at least one movement device can also be designed to move the projection surface in a translatory and/or rotary manner. The at least one movement device comprises in particular a motor.

In particular, the suspension comprises at least one movement device for the translational and/or rotational movement of the projection surface. In addition to this movement device, the device can include a further movement device, which preferably moves the entire suspension, e.g. translational, can move. By means of the translational movement, the moving and illuminated projection surface can generate a light tunnel, for example.

The at least one light element is designed to play back image information and in this way to illuminate the projection surface. The term "image information" can be understood as an image, preferably a photo, and/or a video. For example, it can be a single image, e.g. a real-time recording or an artificially compiled image a light element, a sequence of images or a video can be played This is particularly interesting for panorama photos.

The activation of the at least one light element is synchronized with the movement of the projection surface, preferably in such a way that the impression is created that the object is in an environment defined by the image information. In particular, the control unit is designed to control the projection surface as a function of position, that is to say as a function of a position of the projection surface to be moved. In the case of a rotation, the control unit is designed to control the projection surface as a function of the angle, it being possible for the object to be illuminated all the way around by means of the moved and illuminated projection surface. This creates a hemispherical lighting that has no tear-off edges. In this way, an "artificial" ambient lighting situation of the object can be displayed on the moving projection surface, the dimensions of which are significantly larger than those of the projection surface.

If the object is recorded by a camera, preferably in a long-term exposure mode, the optical impression is created that the object is not in its true environment, but in a different, desired environment that can be deliberately influenced by the choice of image information. Authentic ambient lighting situations can thus be generated, which in turn are then reflected authentically, for example, on a reflecting or reflecting surface of the object to be illuminated. The refraction through transparent surfaces of the object is therefore also close to reality. The projection surface passes through the area between the object and the camera, which cannot be seen on the recordings of the object due to the preferably regular movement of the projection surface. While the projection surface is arranged to be movable, the at least one light element can also be arranged to be movable or stationary.

The device can also include a camera for recording a photo and/or a video of the object, which preferably records the object by means of long-term exposure during the movement and illumination of the projection surface.

The device preferably comprises a multiplicity of light elements, the light elements being arranged on a carrier. The carrier is preferably also in the form of a strip. The light elements can preferably be controlled individually. The carrier can be connected to the projection surface, preferably at a distance from the projection surface, so that the carrier is also movably arranged together with the projection surface.

The multiplicity of light elements can be arranged on the carrier preferably in at least one row, preferably exactly one row. Preferably, the multiplicity of light elements can be arranged in several, preferably two, three or four rows on the carrier, whereby these can be arranged parallel and offset to one another in the longitudinal direction. The rows can be offset from one another in such a way that the unlit spaces between the light elements close in the sideways movement. The control unit can be designed to control different rows of light elements with a time offset. A particularly seamless, in other words gapless, transition can thus be produced between the optical result of rows of light elements that can be controlled differently. The control can be done by pixel mapping.

A projection surface with an associated carrier primarily forms an illumination arm, in which case the device can preferably include precisely one or more, for example two or three, illumination arms.

The projection surface and/or--if light elements are formed on a carrier--the illumination arm formed in this way can preferably each be formed curved, at least in sections. In particular, the projection surface and/or the lighting arm is arcuate in at least one section most preferably semi-circular. Furthermore, the curved formation can extend over the entire length of the projection surface and/or the lighting arm. In particular, the object can be arranged in a center point of the curvature. There does not have to be a constant curvature, but this can be different in different areas. In addition to at least one curved section, the projection surface and/or the lighting arm can also include straight sections or angle pieces.

Starting from a position of an object, a projection surface or an illumination arm can span an angular range, for example an angular range of at least 45°, preferably at least 90°, more preferably at least 180°, most preferably at least 270°. This preferably applies to all projection surfaces or lighting arms. A projection surface or an illumination arm can thus extend from a suspension to one side or to both sides of the object. A counterweight, for example, can be arranged on an opposite side of the projection surface or of the lighting arm, starting from a suspension, in order to optimize the weight distribution.

The projection surface and/or the lighting arm can be arranged hanging from the suspension in a central area. Furthermore, these can be arranged in an end region at a longitudinal end on a suspension.

Different projection surfaces or different lighting arms can be arranged at a different spatial angle, for example in relation to the suspension. The projection surfaces or lighting arms can be arranged uniformly around the circumference. For example, two projection surfaces or lighting arms with preferably the same curvature can be arranged at an angular distance of at least 90°, most preferably at an angular distance of about 180°.

In this case, the projection surface is primarily designed in such a way that it at least partially spans the object to be illuminated. The same can apply to the carrier. In this case, the projection surface and/or the illumination arm is/are in particular such arranged so that the object is in the center of the curvature, e.g. the arcuate or semi-circular configuration.

In particular, the device can comprise a support structure that holds the projection surface or the lighting arm, for example in addition to the suspension. The support structure can be arranged hanging on the suspension, with the projection surface or its carrier being able to be arranged directly on the support structure and thus indirectly on the suspension. Furthermore, a direct attachment to the suspension can be provided. The projection surface or an illumination arm can in particular be releasably connected to the support structure, for example by means of fastening elements such as cables or straps. Thus, the projection surface or the entire illumination arm can be exchanged and thus, for example, the diffusion and/or the type of the pixels can be varied.

The support structure can include a plurality of support arms, in which case, for example, one support arm or two support arms can be assigned to an illumination arm or a projection surface. If a projection surface or an illumination arm extends on both sides of the object, it can also be assigned two support arms, one on each side. For example, the support arms may extend from the hanger. The support arms can be designed in such a way that they carry out the same movement, for example a rotation or translation, of the projection surface or of the lighting arm. In particular, a support arm moves together with the corresponding projection surface or the lighting arm.

As an alternative to a hanging arrangement, the projection surface and/or the lighting arm can be arranged on at least one movement device that is arranged on the floor. For example, the projection surface can span an object from one movement device to another movement device, with the movement device being designed to move the projection surface or the lighting arm in a rotational and/or translatory manner. The movement devices can include, for example, rollers for movement on the floor. Furthermore, the device can, for example, comprise a rail system on the floor, on which the moving devices can move. Furthermore, the object can be arranged, for example, on a presentation surface, for example on the surface of a table, in which case the projection surface or an illumination arm can also be designed in such a way that it spans the object. For example, a support structure can be arranged on the presentation surface, for example on the tabletop of the table. Furthermore, the support structure can be arranged on a table leg and enclose it, for example. Both longitudinal ends of the projection surface or the lighting arm can be attached to the support structure. For example, the support structure can have support arms to which the longitudinal ends can be attached. The projection surface and/or the illumination arm can be rotated and/or pivoted about the object by means of a movement device. For example, the support structure can move in rotation around the longitudinal axis of the table leg together with the projection surface or the lighting arm.

Furthermore, the device can comprise a receiving element on which the object can be placed. The receiving element can be designed in such a way that it can also perform a rotational movement, for example by means of a movement device. A device can also include at least one lighting arm, which is movably arranged on a base, for example a floor plate. The illumination arm can be arranged in such a way that it spans the object from the receiving element in an angular range of at least 40°. The at least one lighting arm can also span the entire object.

The projection surface and/or the lighting arm is/are preferably designed to be flexible, so that their curvature can be changed. In other words, there is no rigid formation, but the curvature can be changed by external influences.

For example, the device can have a unit for changing the curvature, which can exert a corresponding force on the projection surface or the lighting arm, so that the curvature thereof changes. The control unit can be designed to adjust the curvature during recording of an image, i.e. during the generation of an illumination of the object.

The unit for changing the curvature can, for example, comprise at least one cable pull and/or weights, the control unit being able to activate the unit for changing the curvature in such a way that the curvature changes, for example also as a function of the illumination by means of the light elements. The cable pull can include a cable and a pulley. One end of the cable can be attached to the suspension, while the other end can be attached to the projection surface or the lighting arm at a suspension point. The suspension point can be stationary in relation to the lighting arm or the projection surface or can be displaced over its length, for example depending on the force distribution or motorized.

A projection surface or a lighting arm can be retracted and/or folded down. The retraction or folding can be motorized, for example. For example, the suspension can have a recess through which the projection surface and/or the lighting arm can be moved, in other words retracted, so that their position changes. The recess can be a through-opening, so that the projection surface or the lighting arm moves through the recess. Different sub-areas of the projection surface and/or the lighting arm can also slide telescopically into one another or can be retracted in such a way that they are arranged next to one another. It can be achieved, for example, that at least one end of the projection surface or of the lighting arm is arranged closer to the suspension overall and is therefore not disruptive in relation to an object, a camera or a background.

The projection surface and/or the lighting arm can have different sections with different degrees of diffusion. Furthermore, the device can have a plurality of strip-shaped projection surfaces or a plurality of lighting arms which achieve different degrees of diffusion and which can be controlled simultaneously or alternately. For example, projection surfaces of different lighting arms can differ by at least one lens and/or by the material used for the projection surface. There may also be differences in the type of projection. For example, a different degree of diffusion can result from whether the corresponding projection surface is illuminated by a multiplicity of light elements that are designed as pixels, or whether the projection surface is illuminated by at least one projector. There can also be differences with regard to spatial parameters of the projection. For example, the distance between the light elements and the projection surface can be different and/or the density of the light elements on the projection surface. The light elements used can also differ. For example, individual light elements may include RGB and white light, while others also use UV or infrared light.

The different characteristics can also relate to different light elements on the same lighting arm, for example the light elements of rows arranged differently next to one another.

Each light element can preferably be assigned a section on the projection surface, with a light well being able to be formed between the light element and the associated section on the projection surface in order to avoid crosstalk to adjacent sections. The light is mixed or diffusely scattered in the light well.

By separating the different light shafts, crosstalk, i.e. the illumination of an adjacent section of the projection surface, is prevented. Each section is thus illuminated in a homogeneously mixed manner and is nevertheless sharply delimited from the adjacent section.

In order to counteract a possibly too sharp separation of the sections that could be visible on a recording, a diffusion element can be arranged on the projection surface at least in a border area between two adjacent sections of the projection surface. Furthermore, the diffusing element can be arranged on the entire surface of the projection surface to be illuminated. at the diffusion element can be a layer of silicone, for example, which can preferably be between 0.1 mm and 3 mm thick.

Furthermore, the light elements can preferably be arranged movably on the carrier in such a way that they can be moved in a direction opposite to a movement of the carrier. Such a possibility of movement of the light elements is used in particular to carry out a counter-movement to the movement of the wearer, which he executes together with the projection surface, so that the corresponding light elements can remain at the same location at least temporarily due to the counter-movement. For this purpose, for example, rotating elements such as rollers or discs can be arranged on the carrier, which can perform a counter-movement to the movement of the carrier, at least for a limited time. Alternatively, the device can include a light-guiding structure that forwards the light from the light elements to the projection surface. The light directing structure can be a mirror or a light well. A counter-movement mentioned above can also be carried out by changing the position of the light-guiding structure. Alternatively, the same effect can also be achieved by several rows of light elements, which play back image information in the opposite direction to the direction of movement of the carrier. For example, part of the image information can also be reproduced with a time delay by a subset of the light elements, with the light elements being arranged in an offset manner.

Overall, image information that is played can remain apparently still in a fixed position, preferably at a fixed angle to the object, so that the height and the luminance are increased.

Furthermore, a beam angle of the light elements can be limited, for example by appropriate flaps. Thus, for example, it can also be avoided that direct light from the light elements or projection surfaces shines onto a camera for recording an image or a video of the object.

In a further aspect, the present invention relates to a method for generating illumination of an object, which uses a device mentioned above. In particular, the method includes playing back image information with the aid of the at least one light element, in particular the generation of a projection on a projection surface, and a movement of the projection surface, namely synchronously with the illumination of the projection surface. In this case, the control takes place in particular as a function of position or angle.

Furthermore, light elements that are arranged on a carrier can be attenuated differently depending on the angle, for example. For example, light elements that are placed closer to the zenith, e.g. closer to a suspension, can be attenuated more because they cover a smaller distance during rotation and therefore produce a higher luminance. In order to prevent this effect, the light elements can have vertically slit-shaped shadings, with the slit-shaped outlet of the shadings narrowing the closer they are arranged to the zenith. A different damping can also be achieved, for example, by a different degree of diffusion. The light elements can also be controlled with a lower intensity.

The method can include recording an image and/or a video using a camera. For example, a shading element can be placed in front of the camera so that only the illuminated object to be photographed and its immediate surroundings are visible.

Furthermore, the position of the displayed image information can be synchronized with a rotary encoder. The control of the light elements can be controlled by a clock, which is regularly adjusted with the rotary encoder. For example, the exact position of a lighting arm or the projection surface can be determined for this purpose. The rotary encoder can reproduce its position continuously, regularly and/or only on request.

Furthermore, the method can be used to determine, for example, that the camera is triggered at a specific position on the projection surface. The exposure time of the camera can also be preset automatically and/or in advance by a user. The exposure time can be adjusted to the speed of the motor, for example. The method can also include the use of at least one direct light source, such as a spotlight, which illuminates the object directly and therefore does not include a projection surface. The light source can, for example, be adapted to the illumination to be generated for the at least one light element, for example to its color spectrum, as a function of the angle or according to the specifications of a user, preferably automatically.

In order to generate a closed image, i.e. an image without sharp tear-off edges or double and/or unexposed areas, the image information can be played back during a first rotation of the projection surface, with the same image information that is displayed there in a previous first rotation at the same position been hidden again in a second rotation. In this way, the start and end of the picture information is superimposed and sharp edges are avoided.

Furthermore, image information can also be played back with the influence of a user. The method can also include setting an intensity of the light to be emitted onto the projection surface. In addition, the individual light elements can be controlled in such a way that they reproduce the emitted light, for example a respective color value, only very briefly, comparable to a camera flash.

The individual light elements can be measured with regard to their color and brightness rendering, and the measurement results obtained can be used as correction values in order to achieve uniform brightness and color rendering. In other words, the specific measurement results obtained can be taken into account when controlling the individual light elements. This achieves color homogeneity of the individual light elements and compensates for possible manufacturing tolerances. Short description of the figures

The device 10 comprises a suspension 22 on which the projection surface 11 is arranged to hang. Furthermore, the device comprises a movement device 28 which is arranged in the suspension 22 and serves to move the projection surface 11 in rotation about an axis of rotation 80 .

The projection surface 11 is curved and can span an object 60 . The device also has a support structure 31 which includes two support arms 32 which are also arranged on the suspension 22 and can rotate with the projection surface 11 .

A light element 13 in the form of a projector 14 is arranged on each support arm 32 in FIG. The projection surface 11 is designed as a rear projection surface, so that an object 60 is only illuminated with indirect light. The control unit of the device 10 is not shown in FIG. 1 for reasons of clarity. The same applies to the following figures.

FIG. 2 shows a side view of a further device 10 according to the invention, which is designed identically to the device 10 of FIG. 1 except for the following differences. While the support device 31 in FIG. 1 comprises straight support arms 32 throughout, the support arms 32 in FIG. 2 have straight sections which are at an angle to one another. Thus, an arcuate shape is approximated. In this case, a plurality of projectors 14 are arranged as light elements 13 on the support arms 32 , each of which can only illuminate a section of the projection surface 11 .

FIG. 3 shows a side view of a further device 10 according to the invention, which is designed identically to the device 10 of FIG. 2 apart from the following differences. No projectors 14 are arranged on the support arms 32, but the device 10 has a carrier 12 on which a multiplicity of light elements 13, specifically LED elements 15, are arranged (see FIG. 4). In particular, an LED element 15 comprises three light-emitting diodes in the colors red, green and blue. Together with the projection surface 11, the carrier 12 with the light elements 13 forms an illumination arm 24 which spans the object on both sides of the suspension 22. The lighting arm 24 can be detachably attached to the support structure 31, these attachment elements not being shown in FIG. 3 for the sake of clarity.

The exact design of the lighting arm can be seen clearly in FIG. 4, which shows a sectional view of section A of FIG. FIG. 4 shows that the projection surface 11 forms the innermost layer, starting from the object 60, while the carrier 12 forms the outermost layer.

The lighting arm 24 is designed to be flexible so that its curvature can be adjusted. For this purpose, the device 10 has a unit 27 for changing the curvature, which has a cable pull 33 comprising a cable 34 and a deflection pulley 35 . The cable 34 is attached to the suspension 22 at one end and has a suspension point 33a on the lighting arm 24 at the other end.

The lighting arm 24 is again curved and represents a semi-arc. The lighting arm 24 is attached to a first movement device 29 at its first longitudinal end 25 , while it is attached to a second movement device 30 at its second longitudinal end 26 . The movement devices 28 serve to enable movement in the direction of the arrow. A rotational movement about a central axis, which preferably runs through the object 60, can also be implemented in this way. The movement devices 28 can move on rails, for example. FIG. 8 shows a perspective view of a further device 10 according to the invention comprising an illumination arm 24 . The device is identical to the device shown in FIG. 3, apart from the following differences. The lighting arm 24 is not attached directly to the suspension 22, but by means of the support structure 31. Furthermore, the support arms 32 divide into even more straight-line sections. The suspension 22 is arranged on a rope 34 which is arranged between two posts 36 . Thus, the lighting arm 24 can not only be moved rotationally by means of the suspension 22 and the movement device 28 arranged therein, but it can also be moved along the cable in a translatory direction by means of a further movement device 28, which is also located in the suspension.

The suspension 22 comprises a plurality of deflection rollers 35 and cables 34 which, however, are arranged on a vehicle 37 via two support arms 32 of a support structure 31 . Thus, a movement can take place not only in a purely rotary manner, but also in a translatory manner together with the vehicle 37 and the object 60, which can also be a vehicle.

FIG. 10 shows a perspective view of a further device 10 according to the invention, which also has an illumination arm 24 which is arranged on a support structure 31 on a table leg 40 of a table 39 .

Furthermore, the device 10 has two lighting arms 24 . These lighting arms 24 each include a movement device 28, by means of which they can be moved on a substrate, for example a floor slab. The movement devices 28 are shown schematically as rollers.

The device 10 can also comprise a receiving element 38 on which the object 60 can preferably be placed. The receiving element 38 can rotate by means of a further movement device 28 . The illumination arms 24 are arranged in such a way that they span the object 60 from the recording element in an angular range of approximately 40°.

FIG. 12 shows the side view of a further device 10 according to the invention, which is designed analogously to the device of FIG. 6 except for the following differences.
