Description

  The present invention relates to a digital video projection engine, an electromagnetic wave multi-beam scanning engine, an apparatus for performing multi-beam digital vector processing by passing through an optical mechanical system as optical digital transmission, and these systems have a specific configuration. Geometrically arranged disks and / or cylinders and / or rotating light globes and / or plate or polygon scanners make these components use dynamic micromirrors or active or passive diffraction matrix planes It can be configured regardless of whether or not it is used.

  Multi-beam digital vector processing was first developed in the field of video projection and could replace DLP (Digital Light Processing Technology) technology in laser multi-beam digital video projection equipment designed for second generation digital cinema and / or Or the DLP technique can be completed.

  Projections in cinemas have traditionally been performed using IMAX 35 mm or 70 mm film projectors, or in the form of 65 mm film projectors. GLV (Grating Light Valve) technology that enables support of 4Kx2K pixel resolution as well as a certain number of forms utilizing DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology or LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) technology to achieve high performance 2Kx1K resolution The form to use can now be used.

There are a few limitations inherent to these technologies,
By using such techniques applied to high resolution, the costs associated with the development of the basic components (DLP box, GLV box and LCD matrix) increase exponentially,
By using fine metal parts (micromirrors in the case of DLP technology and thin microblades in the case of GLV technology), residual magnetic field, resonance, early aging (caused by repeated twisting many times), oxidation As an example, the problem arises and the constraint occurs with respect to the maximum number of switching times.

  At the LCD level, the main problem arises as a problem inherent to the use of the following components: 1) Transmission loss and color at a certain level of the recombined signal (ratio of red, green, blue, 2) LCD shutter matrix has a low maximum driving / non-driving frequency (shutter cycle). These combined effects do not facilitate the process of optimizing color mixing / color temperature / color reproduction range with a sufficient contrast level (eg, 2000: 1).

  Since most of the constraints can be attributed to the level of integration of currently used matrix technology, the present invention allows for operations that generate in ultra high definition (UHD) and is a fourth generation technology that utilizes multi-beam scanning. Suggest use. Many laser sources, multi-beam scanning systems, and multi-beam digital vector processing can be used to achieve imaging.

  The approach of using laser scanning for projection has already been the subject of several studies. For example, there are several prototypes that utilize polygon or flat plate scanners in color or in a single color. However, this technology faces several limitations: these constraints include the availability of light sources, particularly blue emission light sources, the availability of optoelectronic components (such as intensity modulators) that can accommodate screen resolution and refresh rate, In particular, this is a beam position control that changes depending on the movement speed of the flat plate scanner or the rotation speed of the polygon scanner.

  Recent advances focused on blue and green solid state lasers, including data storage, have made it possible to utilize this technology for display and / or projection. Similarly, as optical communication has spread rapidly in recent years, light intensity modulation is fast enough to accommodate ultra high definition (eg, 5000 × 3000 pixels) by refreshing the image at a rate of, eg, 25 times per second New parts can be developed. The normal flow rate required in uncompressed mode is about a few gigabits per second.

  The apparatus developed in the present invention proposes a process for digitizing not only the image of each beam but also the shape, position, and trajectory in the case of a multi-beam projector, for example, multi-beam digital vector processing of an optical path, for example. suggest.

  The device according to the invention makes it possible, for example, to reproduce and / or shoot color image sequences by means of multi-beam digital vector processing, for example using a “digital video projector engine”. This vector composite multi-beam approach can generate an image or image sequence, but this operation can be performed, for example, by a process similar to lithography, i.e., the image into a predetermined zone, region, or volume where energy is measured. This is done by comprising a number of dispersed spots or patterned overlapping spots, or other spots.

  Furthermore, in many cases, multi-beam digital vector processing can be applied to any optomechanical or optoelectronic device that includes an electromagnetic beam. These devices relate to whether planes, discs, cylinders, spheres, surfaces, or volumes are utilized, whether on the surface or active and / or passive, static and / or dynamic in three dimensions Rather, it can be modeled by multiple transfer functions, planes, and vectors. Each movement, for example a rotational movement, a translation movement, a radial and / or axial circular path movement, a shading movement, is combined into a transfer function spatially and / or on the time axis. These devices, such as mirrors, filters, refractive optics or diffractive optics, are multiplexed on the frequency axis and / or spatially.

  Multi-beam digital vector processing can be applied to any device using a space-time chronogram and can be managed, for example, by a structure that establishes multi-frame synchronization.

The multi-beam digital vector processing is schematically shown as a perspective view. The perspective view is a vector decomposition of a beam path that passes through many interfaces on the time axis or reaches many interfaces on the time axis. All the information in these chronograms is calculated using the same absolute and / or relative space reference coordinate system and time reference coordinate system. For example, the perspective view shows a beam being deflected by two rotating optical disks that allow vertical and horizontal scanning with respect to the screen area. For example, the display of the trajectory of a rotating optical disk that scans in the vertical direction and the display of the trajectory by, for example, a horizontal disk are shown in front view. On the two disks, a comma-shaped shading phenomenon appears according to the specific arrangement of the mirrors and / or filters on the surface of the disk and the rotational speed. For example, a light shielding phenomenon of two mirrors and / or filters inserted into cavities positioned on two rotating optical disks is schematically shown. The shading phenomenon is associated with two mirrors and / or filters, which mirrors and / or filters pass, for example, one in front of the other or one on the other, for example according to a circular path, and for example shielding the beam The beam propagation path for generating a locus or a spatial shape on the time axis is gradually cut. An example of the time chronogram of a light-shielding phenomenon is shown. The X axis shows time, for example in seconds, and the Y axis shows, for example, the overlap of the beam reaching the mirror group and / or the filter in percent. For example, the front view shows the trajectory display of a rotating optical disc that scans in the vertical direction and the trajectory display by a horizontal disc that includes, for example, vector digital processing to eliminate the comma-shaped shading phenomenon: for example, defining dot lines Can do. For example, the beam irradiated to the matrix device composed of photodiode groups located in front of the digital video projection engine is shown in a perspective view, and all of these photodiodes are connected by, for example, a control and synchronization device. FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view of a multi-beam digital video projection engine, which is arranged in, for example, a large number of light source modules, a control module for performing vector digital processing, an optical matrix head, and two power mechanisms superimposed, for example. Two rotating optical disks. FIG. 9 illustrates decomposition in a plane by multi-beam digital vector processing of the multi-beam digital video projection engine of FIG. For example, a front view of an anchor point matrix obtained by using multi-beam digital vector processing by a multi-beam digital video projection engine is shown. FIG. 11 shows a front view and an enlarged view of FIG. 10 when dot spread is performed by an optical matrix head, for example, around an anchor point group. FIG. 11 shows a front view of one modified example in which a pattern group is overlapped around the anchor point group in FIG. 10. FIG. 11 shows a front view of another modified example in which a pattern group is overlapped around the anchor point group in FIG. 10. For example, an enlarged perspective view of a beam matrix static or dynamic reduction and reformat telescope is shown. This telescope is constituted, for example, by a beam reduction and / or focal plane, a beam orientation and / or alignment plane and a collinearization plane. The operation is illustrated by showing a magnified perspective view of the static or dynamic beam reduction and reformat telescope shown in FIG. 14, for example, as the beam traverses. FIG. 4 shows a perspective view of possible motion that can be imparted to a beam by a reduction and reformat telescope. For example, a front view when four beams are projected is shown, and these beam defects are statically or dynamically corrected by beam reduction and reformatting telescopes. FIG. 6 shows a front view when multiple beams are projected to reveal some examples of possible shapes of patterns at the output of an optical matrix head and / or beam reduction and reformat telescope. For example, a large number of rotating optical discs constituted by a number of optical matrix heads as a crown structure and / or pyramid structure, or a laying structure of mirrors and / or filters, for example, located along an axis and a number of delay lines FIG. 2 shows a simplified perspective view of optical digital transmission constructed by and using multi-beam digital vector processing. Fig. 4 shows a simplified perspective view of a variant of optical digital transmission, composed of a number of active and / or passive, static and / or dynamic planar matrices and using multi-beam digital vector processing. For example, a simplified cross-sectional view of an optical matrix analyzer configured by two opposing optical matrix heads and using multi-beam digital vector processing is shown, where one optical matrix head is for example a sensor group and / or a light source group instead of a light source group. Or it has a receiver group. Shown is a perspective and top view of a removable pyramid structure, which includes a number of pins, eg, optical matrix head electronics that allow feedback on orientation using multi-beam digital vector processing, per stage. Shows front and perspective views of very dense optical matrix heads, eg semiconductor components, eg micro-optical collimators and small central pyramid light emitting diodes or laser diodes, eg feedback on patterns using multi-beam digital vector processing Is possible. The front view of the modification of FIG. 23, a perspective view, and a detailed view are shown. Simplified sectional view of a modified example of optical digital transmission comprising a diffraction plane, a matrix plane consisting of mirrors and / or filters, a number of matrices with microelectromechanical mirrors and / or filters, and a number of delay lines Indicates. For example, a simplified diagram of a modified example of optical digital transmission composed of a large number of dynamic diffraction matrices is shown.

  Referring to the drawings, multi-beam digital vector processing (FIG. 1) allows management of devices that use an electromagnetic beam, which propagates through space, and includes a specific number of reflections and / or reflections. Transmission occurs on the time axis. The multi-beam digital vector processor (FIG. 1) makes all of the beam groups relative to each other, fixed by a reference point called a spatial anchor point (14) belonging to the planar interface or starting interface (6) of the vector chronogram (12a). Modeled by a plurality of N-dimensional vectors in the reference coordinate system and / or the absolute reference coordinate system, for example, (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5). The N dimension of the vector depends on the complexity and / or characteristics of the beam. For example, in the case of a laser beam, the vector (1) indicating the laser is, for example, the coordinates (x, y, z) of the start point, for example, the spatial anchor point (14), the direction vector, for example, (20), (21), ( 22), (23), (24), and (25), information on the beam shape, information on power, information on spectrum, time information, and the like.

  Each element or interface constituting the apparatus using multi-beam digital vector processing (FIG. 1), for example, (6), (7), (8), (9), (10), and (11) is a space-time anchor point. For example, (14), (15), (16), (17), (18), and (19), and the transfer function in the relative reference coordinate system and / or the absolute reference coordinate system. In the transfer function, the static and / or dynamic properties of the interface and / or associated spatio-temporal anchor points, eg (14), (15), (16), (17), (18), and (19) Taking into account the coupling of electromagnetic waves. The transfer function can be expressed as a series of equations, such as, for example, an angle equation, a Cartesian equation, a polar equation, a spherical equation, a cylindrical equation, a vector equation, and / or a difference equation, and then the transfer function is, for example, a digital signal It is synthesized, for example, in the form of a Laplace function, including discrete Fourier transforms that can be applied to processing, or other Fourier transforms, or any other digital mathematical model, or other mathematical model.

  As described above, an apparatus using multi-beam digital vector processing (FIG. 1) is capable of transmitting a large number of consecutive vectors such as (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5), and transmission. Modeled by functions, these transfer functions can be combined into a single transfer function, for example, by a single transfer function, for example, on the spatial, frequency axis for all of the beams that pass through the entire system, Control on the time axis becomes possible. By associating time and frequency anchor points with spatial anchor points (14), beam propagation can be processed more completely.

  Each transfer function, or main transfer function, can be recorded or modeled, for example, in the form of a space-time chronogram (12b), and the space-time chronogram can determine the operation of the device through the multi-frame structure over time. Planes such as (6), (7), (8), (9), (10), and (11) correspond to spatial and temporal cutouts, which are cut out by multi-beam digital vector processing. The progress of beam propagation over time from the modeled device is shown.

Here are some examples of multi-beam digital vector processing applications and how this processing works:
Example 1 Beam Scanning Through Two Rotating Optical Discs The apparatus of FIG. 1 (FIG. 2) consists of two rotating optical discs, eg (26) and (27), which follow a specific arrangement. A number of mirrors and / or filters and / or cavities (28), by means of this arrangement the scanning of the display area (29) is effected by a beam (30) following a first vertical movement and a second horizontal movement. It becomes possible. By rotating the two rotating optical disks using the continuous beam (30), the beam trajectory (FIG. 3) can be obtained on the display area (29). In addition to the spatial shift, the mirror group and / or the filter group perform spectral changes, for example filtering at the reflection position of the beam, for example at the reflection position of the beam (30) having a spectral shape, eg (31). The spectral shape can be changed by the first reflection and can have, for example, a spectral shape (32), and can be changed by the second reflection, for example, to have a spectral shape (33). it can.

  For each trajectory, eg (34) and (35), the trajectory is two mirrors and / or filters, eg (37), which provide a continuous reflection of the beam (30) between the light source and the display area (29). ) And (38) appear to be a number of commas, for example (36), due to the Eclipse phenomenon (FIG. 4). A comma, for example (36), indicates the projection onto the plane of the path that the beam can travel within the envelope, for example (39), ie the locus of the Eclipse region. The Eclipse phenomenon modeled by multi-beam digital vector processing is displayed, for example, as a space-time chronogram and / or a vector chronogram (FIG. 5). This chronogram makes it possible to see the spatial and temporal overlap between the two mirrors and / or filters and / or cavities (37) and (38) and the beam (30) and thus A plurality of routes to reach a specific point can be obtained.

  The first graph (40) corresponds, for example, to the position of the disc (37), which changes with time, the second graph (41), for example, corresponds to the position of the disc (38), which changes with time, and the last graph. (42) corresponds to a combination of these disks associated with, for example, a “fire” order. Along the chronogram, the incident beam is temporally driven and / or modulated according to the spatial position of the vertically rotating optical disc and / or the horizontal rotating optical disc, thereby providing a column point group (43) and / or a row point. Group (44) is obtained (FIG. 6).

  The transfer function and form of the chronogram of a device using multi-beam digital vector processing is mathematically calculated using a sensor matrix (FIG. 7) used as a member that recognizes the resulting position of the beam, which varies with time, for example. And / or can be registered. The sensor matrix (45) is composed of a number of photodiodes (46) arranged according to a specific arrangement, for example, and the specific arrangement consists of points scanned by a beam passing through the device (47), for example. By means of the command (48), for example, each anchor point represented by the sensor (46) can be recognized. The number, spacing, and configuration of anchor points located in the rows and columns of the matrix will vary depending on, for example, resolution, the number of beams that are scanned simultaneously, beam divergence, and the like. The sensor matrix (45) is, for example, arranged behind the two rotating optical disks (26) and (27) and the electronic control unit (48), that is, the beam light source (30), the rotating optical disks (26) and (27). , And the sensor matrix (45), for example, can be displayed as the chronogram of FIG. 5 corresponding to the time of scanning each photodiode with a beam, and then predict the path of each beam according to the available firing times. Can do.

Example 2: Multi-beam scanning engine By using the apparatus of the optical multi-beam digital video projection engine (Fig. 8), a video image sequence is generated, for example, by lithographic processing, i.e. by multi-beam digital vector processing. In this process, the use of the engine is optimized by having the image constructed and / or generated whenever the screen is scanned with any series of beams. This series of beams, e.g. lasers, is processed as a series of vectors passing through a number of interfaces and / or devices, e.g. planes, which interface e.g. different beams, vectors and coupling elements for each interface. Modeled with a static or dynamic transfer function defined spatially, on the frequency axis, and on the time axis.

A possible embodiment of a digital video projector architecture enabled by an electromagnetic multi-beam scanning engine and performing optical multi-beam scanning (FIG. 8) using such multi-beam digital vector processing includes the following features:
A number of light source modules (49),
Optical matrix head (50),
Passive / static and / or active / dynamic reduction and reformat telescope (51),
Refractive optical periscope (52),
A rotating optical disc (53) that applies horizontal deflection to the beam,
A rotating optical disk (54) that applies vertical deflection to the beam.
The light source module (49) is designed to realize a collimated beam (55) from a laser diode module, for example. According to this configuration, the light source module (49) can be a static or dynamic module.

  The optical matrix head structures the beam (5) into a matrix (56), for example by a number of mirrors and / or filters arranged in a specific path, e.g. pyramids, cones, planes, e.g. It is designed to be realized by structuring into a square, rectangle, circle, or any other shape.

  The beam contraction and reformat telescope (51) reduces the congestion of any pattern (56) generated by the optical matrix head (50) to make the pattern sufficiently small to provide a component for the digital video projection engine. Is designed to reformat and refocus different beams as well as reach in a state that does not need to be reduced and packed, in which case all operations are passive, for example using a lens or a refractive index matrix Or it is done statically or dynamically by active components.

  The refractive optical periscope (52) is made using, for example, a simple or complex plane, for example, using multiple areas or floors that are static or dynamic. The periscope, on the one hand, guides all of the beams from the optical matrix head (50) to the first rotating optical disk (53) by applying a deflection, eg a vertical deflection, to the beam group of the pattern (58). And on the other hand, all the reduced beam from the rotating optical disk (54) is deflected, eg horizontal deflection, applied to the reduced beam group of the scanned reduced pattern (59), for example in the display area, eg on the surface or You can guide to the volume.

  The rotating optical disk (53), which is placed on the rotating device (60) and applies vertical deflection to the reduced beam group (58), is constituted by a number of mirrors and / or filters according to a specific arrangement, The display area can be continuously scanned along the vertical movement.

  The rotating optical disk (54), which is installed on the rotating device (61) and applies horizontal deflection to the reduced beam group (58), is constituted by a number of mirrors and / or filters according to a specific arrangement, The display area can be continuously scanned along the horizontal movement. Thus, the apparatus (FIG. 8) scans and / or routes the beam (58) through a number of rotating optical disks. By controlling the integration of multi-beam digital vector processing (62), the transfer function of the entire system can be managed, for example in the form of space-time chronograms and / or multi-frame synchronization.

  Lithographic image formation uses the same technique used for printing to create different patterns that have any size and shape and are shared on a specific area (e.g., surface or volume), This is done by combining each pattern with a specific colorimetric value and high functionality, and can put some information into the eye, which will cause the brain to develop in all fields of view and target this area It is conveyed by the visual effect.

  A possible variant architecture of a digital video projector that performs optical multi-beam scanning and uses multi-beam digital vector processing comprises a color pixel generator. The principle of operation and the group of components are all the same as in the previous embodiment (FIG. 8), but instead of the light source module (49), a color pixel generator is used to introduce beam spectral management, for example beam color. The point that can be adjusted is different.

  In multi-beam digital vector processing (FIG. 9), a continuous vector reaching the intersection plane is used to model the path of multiple beams through the digital video projection engine (FIG. 8).

  An exploded view of the multi-beam scanning engine device is shown in FIG. Since the beam from the light source module (49) is represented by a vector of a predetermined size (55), for example, the direction of the beam in space, the spectral characteristics of the beam, the geometric characteristics of the beam, etc. can be defined. . When this vector (55) is projected onto the plane (A), for example, a point (63) is obtained.

  A plurality of light source modules (49) are distributed over different crown structures of the optical matrix head (50) and directed, for example, towards the central pyramid structure (57). With the optical matrix head (50), all the beams (55) from the light source module (49) can be arranged collinearly. The transfer function of the optical matrix head can change the spatial coordinates of all vectors (56) from the light source module (49), among other functions. When this series of vectors (56) is projected onto a plane (B), for example, one of the matrix patterns (64), such as a square pattern, is obtained. Next, various beams having a pattern (64) and modeled by a series of collinear vectors (56) pass through a beam reformatted telescope (51). Depending on the transfer function implemented in the telescope, information about the vector direction and / or beam shape, eg, the diameter of each beam, is changed. The pattern (65) formed, for example, on the plane (C) by the various projection beams (56) becomes, for example, a reduced or “compressed” pattern (65) of the pattern on the plane (B). This series of beams, modeled by a series of collinear vectors (58), is fed into a digital video projection engine that performs multi-beam scanning (59), and when the multi-beams are projected onto, for example, a plane (D), the plane ( A pattern (66) is generated that scans D) over time. This last device transfer function allows the orientation of each output vector (59) according to the input vector (58) and according to the characteristics at a given point in time of the reflection and / or transmission plane of the multi-beam digital video projection engine. Determined. This series of vectors, along with the transfer function of the multi-beam digital video projection engine, defines the spatial, frequency and temporal characteristics of each output beam from the multi-beam digital video projection engine.

  In multi-beam digital vector processing, the overall transfer function characterizing all of the parameters of the device by combining various static and / or dynamic transfer functions of the various devices of the multi-beam digital video projection engine (FIG. 9). Get. One way to manage or insert multi-beam digital vector processing is by using space-time chronograms and multi-frame synchronization.

  For example, in a space-time chronogram generated by recording or created by a numerical function or other calculation function, a mirror group of two disks of the multi-beam scanning engine on the scanned region (67) and A number of anchor points (68), images are defined (FIG. 10) obtained with various possible combinations on the axes of the filter groups and / or cavities.

  To increase the density of the image (FIG. 11) on each anchor point (68), either pattern (69) is placed in parallel along the scan line passing through the optical matrix head built into the multi-beam scanning engine. The

  According to a variant of the embodiment, the optical matrix head (50) is constituted by a number of crown structures, on each of the crown structures a number of light source modules (49) or, for example, changes over time. Shared by any color beam generator module or electromagnetic beam generator module that exhibits a particular spectral trajectory. These modules guide the beam group towards the mirror group and / or the filter group arranged in the center of the ring group on the support part, eg pyramid structure (57) or conical structure or other structures, Create a group of beams, align these beams collinearly, and obtain an output matrix (56).

  Overlapping patterns (69), (70), (71), and (72) created by the optical matrix head, for example by constructing the image using multi-beam digital vector processing, for example by a multi-beam digital video projection engine. ) Can be dynamically corrected. In fact (FIG. 12) and (FIG. 13), the various patterns produced by the optical matrix head are projected in any manner in projected areas, eg (69), (70), (71), and (72). The partial overlap region or the complete overlap region of the pattern group (73) can be obtained by scanning above. In multi-beam digital vector processing applied to a multi-beam digital video projection engine, different regions, for example (73) and (74), are identified by a specific transfer function, and using interpolation or extrapolation calculations, Patterns from the optical matrix head, eg spectral and frequency parts above (69), (70), (71), and (72) of these overlapping regions, eg (73) and (74), or resulting The resulting image can be corrected by statically or dynamically changing the space-time chronogram associated with the overall transfer function of the device, for example with respect to brightness, color, and shape.

In order to interact a large number of static and / or dynamic elements according to the required deformations and / or corrections, a variation of the multi-beam digital video projection engine is completed, for example by performing the following operations:
Fine correction of the pyramid structure (57),
For example, an electronic control actuator is incorporated in the light source module (49),
The active beam reforming telescope (FIG. 14) allows for the change in the geometric spacing and / or shape of each beam from the optical matrix head (50),
The pyramid structure includes a number of active mirrors and / or filters (FIG. 22);
The optical matrix head (FIG. 23) or (FIG. 24) is either completed or not completed with an active or passive diffractive optical element that is made of semiconductor and arranges all of the output beam groups collinearly.

Some device stability or correction problems require the use of a support portion that provides dynamic microcorrection control over the pyramid structure.
According to a variant of the embodiment, the light source module (49) of the optical matrix head (50) as a crown structure and / or pyramid structure is switched by a matrix head as a laying structure of mirror groups and / or filter groups. it can. With this structure, a large number of generated beams can be concentrated by the matrix head using frequency coding with respect to position in addition to the spatial coding performed by the pyramid structure. Each position is managed by multi-beam digital vector processing read into the apparatus, for example, in the spatial domain, frequency domain, and time domain.

  According to a possible variation, an active beam reformat reduction telescope (FIG. 14) controlled by multi-beam digital vector processing changes the geometric ratio and shape of each beam from the optical matrix head (50). This active beam reformat reduction telescope is composed of, for example, a number of diffractive optical element stages (FIG. 14). The first stage of the diffractive optical system (75) can condense and / or reduce, for example, beam groups from an optical matrix head one by one. This first stage, which is static or dynamic, can take into account the trajectory by the optical matrix head in a variant of the embodiment, so that this first stage allows the shape of the beam group individually or It can be reformatted (corrected) collectively. This first stage can reduce the diameter or change the shape of each beam, for example by generating a matrix of convergent beam groups (78) (eg making these beams circular or elliptical). ). For example, in the second stage diffractive optical system (76), the distance between each beam (78) is shortened by collimating these beams and grouping them together. Finally, for example, the final stage (77) of the beam contracting telescope (FIG. 14) allows all of the beam groups (79) to be arranged collinearly at the component output (58). When one beam is extracted from these beams (FIG. 15) and the operation of one beam (80) passing through the first stage (75) is shown, this beam is focused on the second stage (76). (81) and finally oriented towards the final stage (77). With the development of current technology, e.g. diffractive optics, dynamic elements such as phase spatial modulators, e.g. (75), (76) and (77) are used in the beam reformatted telescope (51). Configurations can be devised. Next, multiple movements in space, such as (83) and (84), can be used statically and / or dynamically (FIG. 16). Therefore, with this configuration, for example, a minute point having a predetermined area can be formed.

  Therefore, when a modified example of the multi-beam digital vector processing is used, for example, in a multi-beam video projector, the multi-beam digital vector processing allows the shape of the beam group from the optical matrix head and the equivalence between the beam groups. Dynamic correction of spacing can be used, for example, to solve pattern overlay problems, such as (FIG. 12) and (FIG. 13), or to increase the density of screen areas lacking pixels (see FIG. 12). FIG. 17) and (FIG. 18).

  According to a possible variant of the multi-beam digital video projection engine, pattern crowding (56) from the optical matrix head (50) can be realized, for example, using an active light source module. These modules in various settings can be made by, for example, piezoelectric modules, microactuators, so that the direction of each beam from the optical matrix head can be individually changed to produce a multi-beam digital vector of the multi-beam digital video projection engine. Corrections controlled by the process can be integrated. In this way (FIG. 17), a pattern, for example (85), can be reduced (86) or expanded (87), for example. According to these configurations, the pattern generated by the optical matrix head (FIG. 18) can be square (88), or the beams can be aligned (89) or not (90). ) Any shape of configuration.

Example 3 Optical Digital Transmission Using Rotating Optical Disc According to a modification of the embodiment, for example, optical digital transmission can be performed by using multi-beam digital vector processing. Consists of:
A number of rotating optical disks, for example (91), (92), (93), (94) and (95),
Multiple delay lines, eg (96),
A number of optical matrix heads located at the input, for example a crown structure, a pyramid structure (97), and / or a laying structure (98) of mirrors and / or filters;
A number of optical matrix heads located at the output, for example a crown structure, a pyramid structure (99), and / or a laying structure (100) of mirrors and / or filters.

  By means of an optical digital transmission device (FIG. 19), cross-connection and / or routing and / or switching can be performed in an optical telecommunication network, for example a multi-section rotating optical disc, a single-side rotating optical disc, or a double-side rotating optical disc, eg (91), (92) , (93), (94), and (95), and a combination of mirror groups and / or filter element groups of a specific configuration, for example, (101), which is made possible, and space designation that varies depending on the target effect And / or vector designation and / or angle designation are possible and target effects include: cross-connect phase and / or routing phase and / or switching phase, cavity jump, sector jump, section jump, rotating optical disc jump, Insertion and / or delay line Removal, and can be exemplified extraction of the beam in the delay line output.

  For example, the optical matrix head devices of (97) and (98) are responsible for assigning the payload to the correct path on the spatial and / or frequency axis and / or on the time axis, with different virtual paths and / or virtual pipes. Realized by “space” and “time” collimation utilizing a series of reflections and / or transmissions between, for example, coupled to achieve effective propagation of a Gaussian beam at a particular instant “t”. By complementing this device with a number of delay lines, eg (96), a number of multi-frame and multi-beam digital vector processing is used to re-process the resynchronization of various signals. Power is supplied to the device from multiple simultaneous streams, eg, two, three, or more simultaneous streams with the same payload to ensure flow continuity and information integrity. By using passive elements such as mirrors and / or filters, reversibility of the input / output of the device is realized (bidirectional simultaneous transmission).

  As in the previous embodiment, multi-beam digital vector processing divides the optical digital transmission (FIG. 19) into a number of planes and a number of vectors, which are optical digital on the time axis. It can be interpreted as a space-time chronogram showing various interfaces or coupling planes of transmission, for example (102). For example, on the chronogram (102): the plane (103) indicates the rotating optical disk (91), the plane (104) indicates the disk (92), and the plane (105) is a plane in the middle of passing through the disk (92). Planes (106) and (107) show the input and output planes of the delay line (96), plane (108) shows the plane in the middle of passing through the disk (93), and plane (109) The plane where the disk (93) is shifted is shown, the plane (110) is the plane displaced toward the disk (94), the plane (111) is the plane displaced toward the disk (95), and the plane ( 112) shows the plane in the middle of passing through the disk (95), and the last plane (113) shows the output plane of the optical digital transmission of the optical matrix head (99) or (100). That. In each plane, an anchor point, for example, a point (114) on the plane (103), is shown, and the path of the beam guided to the optical digital transmission path can be tracked on the time axis by the anchor point.

  For example, by means of the first transfer function, all parameters are spatially, on the frequency axis, and in time into multiple beams, eg from an optical matrix head, eg (97) or (98), at the input of an optical digital transmission. Can be assigned on the axis. Each rotating optical disk having a trajectory of the disk itself, for example (91), (92), (93), (94), and (95), is modeled in a common reference coordinate system and / or a relative reference coordinate system by a transfer function. Is done. A delay line, eg (96), resynchronizes the output signals. The transfer functions of these rotating optical disks act almost on the time axis.

  By applying these models to be compared to a common reference coordinate system and / or a relative reference coordinate system, the continuous transfer function itself is displayed as a space-time chronogram. Therefore, with this chronogram obtained from multi-beam digital vector processing, all of the optical digital transmission devices can be driven using, for example, a multi-frame structure.

  As described above, the operation is achieved, for example, by mounting the total transfer function of the apparatus (FIG. 19) on, for example, an optical digital transmission drive cell, for example, an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).

  Since it is managed by a transfer function, multi-beam digital vector processing can use, for example, all the numerical calculation methods already used in the field of signal processing or other calculation methods.

Example 4: Optical digital transmission consisting of, for example, static and / or dynamic reflection and / or transmission planes Spatial realization realized by rotating optical disks, depending on the availability and performance of the various technologies available Cross connection, routing, switching on the time axis and on the frequency axis, such as micro electromechanical mirrors, liquid crystals, planar scanners and / or polygon scanners, diffractive optics and / or refractive optics, etc. The components can be replaced and / or supplemented by numerous devices that allow spatial beam reflection.

According to an embodiment, the arrangement of these last devices can be performed, for example, along one axis (FIG. 20) or several axes.
Optical digital transmission (FIG. 20) can be achieved by, for example, a number of spatially arranged microelectromechanical mirrors and / or filter matrices such as (115), (116), (117), (118), (119), And (120), the mirror and / or filter matrix from the input position, eg from the crown structure and / or pyramid structure (97) or from the mirror group and / or filter group laying structure (98) The incident beam is deflected at a number of specific angles towards the output position, e.g. towards the crown structure and / or pyramid structure (99) or the mirror and / or filter group laying structure (100), as a result A continuous reflection occurs in a number of matrices with a specific orientation.

  Therefore, as in the previous embodiment, multi-beam digital vector processing subdivides the device into continuous propagation vectors, planes, and numerical transfer functions or other transfer functions, for example as a time-space chronogram indicate.

  With electronic control, for example, a specific designated combination can be selected, which enables beam cross-connection and / or routing and / or switching at the output of an optical matrix head or other head, multi-beam digital vector processing. You can use it.

Example 5: Optical Analysis Matrix Head According to a modification of the embodiment, using FIG. 21, in multi-beam digital vector processing, for example, an optical analysis matrix head configured by the following apparatus is driven. be able to:
For example, an input optical matrix head (122) such as a crown pyramid structure.

For example, an output optical matrix head (123) such as a crown pyramid structure.
In these optical matrix heads, the light source is replaced by a sensor such as a photodiode.

A gap (124) between two optical matrix heads that allows placement of an object or device, eg, a sample to be analyzed.
An input optical matrix head, eg (122), can transmit a number of collimated collinear beams (125), for example in free space, towards the other output optical matrix head (123), thereby Features of different physical properties of different beams propagating between the two optical matrix heads, such as the structure, velocity, composition of the sample (124) to be examined or analyzed, can be extracted.

  These physical properties can be recorded, for example, as space-time chronograms, which represent the transfer function resulting from multi-beam digital vector processing on a sample by modeling each beam as a vector. Represent.

  According to a variation of the embodiment corresponding to all of the above applications, a pyramid structure of an active / dynamic optical matrix head that performs multi-beam digital vector processing can be produced. In fact, the mirror group on the pyramid structure can be operated by downsizing an actuator, for example, a piezoelectric actuator or a micro jack. For example, the pyramid structure (FIG. 22) can be represented by a number of hierarchies that include a number of mirrors and / or filters (129) according to a particular arrangement, eg, stacked layers, eg (126), (127), (128). An element similar to the element used for the electronic component, for example, a pin (130) is used. The hierarchies are stacked on a specific electronic card (131), for example, and the electronic card (131) is driven using, for example, a standard connector, eg, a control member, eg, multi-beam digital vector processing. Can be connected to a video projection engine.

  This dynamic pyramid device (FIG. 22) allows a static and / or dynamic beam reformat reduction telescope (FIG. 14) to be completed, so that the scanning pattern, eg (FIG. 17) and / or (FIG. 18). The focusing, expansion or reduction of each beam, and detailed point indication can be performed, for example, in a multi-beam digital video projection engine (FIG. 8). All elements are driven by a control member that integrates multi-beam digital vector processing, eg (FIG. 1).

  According to a variant of the embodiment and / or according to the targeted bulk structure, for example, the optical matrix head used in any of the above-mentioned examples can for example be (FIG. 23) and / or ( FIG. 24) is obtained in a specific manner, for example directly using the semiconductor (134) crown structure (133) placed around the pyramid structure (135), so that a series of collimated collinears on the output side. A beam can be generated. According to these structures, the semiconductor (134) crown structure (133), such as high intensity light emitting diodes and laser diodes, can be completed, for example, by a number of crown structures, such as (136) and (137) (FIG. 24). ), These crown structures include a number of lenses and / or filters, eg (138) and (139), or include optical components, which are reflected by the central pyramid structure (135). Collimation, redirection and filtering of the previous beam group (140) is possible.

  In a modification of the optical matrix head using a semiconductor, for example (FIG. 23) or (FIG. 24), for example, a static or dynamic light diffraction element is added at the output, and the output beam group is reliably arranged on the collinear line. And collimate. Such elements connected to a control member, such as a multi-beam digital video projection engine, allow dynamic correction of beam position using multi-beam digital vector processing.

  According to a variation of the embodiment, an optical matrix head utilizing a semiconductor, for example (FIG. 23) or (FIG. 24), can be implemented by mounting a standard pin device (152), for example an electronic microprocessor. The device can be connected to a control member for multi-beam digital vector processing.

  With multi-beam digital vector processing, chronogram management and various multi-frame structure variations of optical digital transmission, such as (FIG. 25) and (FIG. 26), can be conceived. Indeed, according to a possible variant, the optical digital transmission (FIG. 25) is constituted, for example, by a planar matrix or a diffraction matrix (141), which, for example, splits the beam from the optical matrix head (97) with a thin mirror and Redirecting and / or reformatting and / or collimating towards the filter matrix, the mirror and / or filter matrix is a microelectromechanical mirror at a specific angle through the mirror group and / or filter group And / or a number of matrices composed of filters (143), (144), (145), and (146), and a number of delay lines, eg, (147) and (148). Another possible variant of optical digital transmission (FIG. 26) is a number of dynamic diffraction matrices, eg (149), (150) that allow for dynamic generation and / or reconstruction and / or reformatting of the optical path. ) And (151).

  Various previous embodiments have been described by multi-beam digital vector processing, eg, shape, position, path, and all electromagnetic beam shapes, active and / or passive, static and / or dynamic planes, discs, cylinders, Any optoelectronic or optomechanical device with a sphere, surface, volume can be scanned in plane or in three dimensions. Based on a model consisting of planes or vectors and utilizing a continuous transfer function, multi-beam digital vector processing allows the operation of managing the device using an electromagnetic beam. These electromagnetic beams propagate in space, and in these electromagnetic beams, a number of specific reflections and / or transmissions occur on the time axis, and each movement, for example a rotational movement on the spatial and / or time axis. Translational movement, radial movement and / or axial movement, circular path movement, shading movement can be integrated into static and / or dynamic numerical transfer functions or other transfer functions.

  In this way, devices that use multi-beam digital vector processing are displayed as space-time chronograms and vector chronograms, which include, for example, a number of space-time anchor points relative to a particular “launch” time. Are displayed in a form enumerated based on various time-axis combinations or specific designated combinations. Each “launch” time is based on, for example, modeling of commas and / or recording of the trajectory of the commas, for example, due to light shielding of mirrors and / or filters and / or cavities having a specific arrangement on a rotating optical disk. Extracted. Multi-beam digital vector processing can be performed by the FPGA, which manages the optical path for effectively propagating the beam, eg, a Gaussian beam, in free space by synchronizing various devices.

  If the multi-beam apparatus uses, for example, an optical matrix head, multi-beam digital vector processing can dynamically correct, for example, pattern superposition, in a manner that varies with pattern deformation and / or correction. This allows the use of the device to enable frequency coding, for example, in addition to spatial coding, eg individual beam groups such as an optical matrix head as a laying structure of mirror groups and / or filter groups. Or collective reduction and / or transformation functions, beam reduction reformat telescopes, dynamic pyramid structures.

  By modeling multi-beam devices in this way using vectors, planes, and transfer functions, static and / or dynamic multi-beam digital vector processing can be used in audio-visual, telecommunications, biomedical. It can be applied in many fields such as.
