Description

影像調整裝置及影像調整方法Image adjusting device and image adjusting method

本發明係與影像調整有關,特別是關於一種能夠動態地自動旋轉縮放影像的影像調整裝置及影像調整方法。The present invention relates to image adjustment, and more particularly to an image adjustment apparatus and an image adjustment method capable of dynamically rotating a zoomed image automatically.

近年來,隨著科技不斷地演進,影像處理技術也發展得相當迅速。舉例而言,影像處理技術中的影像縮放(scaling)功能及影像旋轉(rotation)功能早已被廣泛地應用於各種影像顯示裝置(例如液晶顯示器、電漿顯示器等)。In recent years, with the continuous evolution of technology, image processing technology has also developed quite rapidly. For example, image scaling and image rotation in image processing technology have been widely used in various image display devices (such as liquid crystal displays, plasma displays, etc.).

就影像的縮放功能而言,由於影像輸入裝置所輸入之影像的解析度不一定能夠完全與影像顯示裝置所顯示之影像的解析度相符,因此,影像顯示裝置往往需要透過影像縮放器(scaler)對於影像輸入裝置所輸入的影像進行必要的縮放處理,藉以使得處理後的影像能夠滿足影像顯示裝置對於影像解析度之需求,使用者也才能夠透過影像顯示裝置欣賞到清晰的影像畫面。As for the zoom function of the image, since the resolution of the image input by the image input device does not necessarily match the resolution of the image displayed by the image display device, the image display device often needs to pass through the image scaler. The necessary scaling processing is performed on the image input by the image input device, so that the processed image can satisfy the image resolution device's requirement for image resolution, and the user can enjoy the clear image image through the image display device.

至於影像的旋轉功能則大多應用於某些特殊情況下,例如當影像顯示裝置受到空間之限制而無法正向架設時,或是當影像顯示裝置受到探照角度之限制而無法固定正向輸入影像時等特殊情況下。As for the image rotation function, it is mostly used in some special cases, such as when the image display device is limited by space and cannot be erected, or when the image display device is limited by the search angle, the forward input image cannot be fixed. When special circumstances are required.

一般而言,目前的影像調整程序大多交由顯示卡或中央處理器(CPU)進行運算輸出,然而,對於非電腦輸出的影像來源,亦即不具有顯示卡及中央處理器的影像輸入裝置來說,目前仍尚未有任何簡易又成本低廉的解決方案可供使用。Generally speaking, most of the current image adjustment programs are outputted by a display card or a central processing unit (CPU). However, for non-computer output image sources, that is, image input devices without a display card and a central processing unit. It is said that there are still no simple and low-cost solutions available.

此外,目前的影像縮放器在進行影像縮放處理時仍具有相當多的限制。舉例而言,除了需要固定影像顯示裝置的解析度之外,使用者還必須事先設定好影像縮放因子,以供影像縮放器進行影像的縮放,例如習知專利(Patent No. US7551231B2)所述需固定螢幕解析度並事先設定好縮放因子,亦即目前的影像縮放器仍無法真正達到動態地自動旋轉縮放影像之功能。In addition, current image scalers still have considerable limitations in performing image scaling processing. For example, in addition to the resolution of the image display device, the user must also set the image scaling factor in advance for the image scaler to perform image scaling, such as described in the conventional patent (Patent No. US7551231B2). Fix the screen resolution and set the zoom factor in advance, that is, the current image scaler still can't really achieve the function of dynamically rotating the zoom image automatically.

於此實施例中,影像調整裝置1包含第一解析度偵測模組10、第二解析度偵測模組11、自動縮放係數產生模組12、自動縮放模組13及影像旋轉模組14。其中,第一解析度偵測模組10係電性連接影像輸入裝置2及自動縮放係數產生模組12;第二解析度偵測模組11係電性連接自動縮放係數產生模組12及影像顯示裝置3;自動縮放係數產生模組12係電性連接第一解析度偵測模組10、第二解析度偵測模組11及自動縮放模組13;自動縮放模組13係電性連接影像輸入裝置2、自動縮放係數產生模組12及影像旋轉模組14;影像旋轉模組14係電性連接影像顯示裝置3、自動縮放模組13及設置於影像調整裝置1外的外部旋轉控制器15。In this embodiment, the image adjustment device 1 includes a first resolution detection module 10, a second resolution detection module 11, an automatic scaling coefficient generation module 12, an automatic zoom module 13, and an image rotation module 14 .

值得注意的是,由於此實施例之影像調整裝置1中之影像旋轉模組14係電性連接於影像顯示裝置3與自動縮放模組13之間,代表此實施例中之輸入影像係先透過自動縮放模組13進行自動縮放之後,再經由影像旋轉模組14進行旋轉而成為輸出至影像顯示裝置3的輸出影像。接下來,將分別就影像調整裝置1所包含之各模組具備的功能進行詳細的介紹。It is to be noted that the image rotation module 14 in the image adjustment device 1 of the embodiment is electrically connected between the image display device 3 and the automatic zoom module 13, and the input image in the embodiment is transmitted first. After the automatic zoom module 13 performs automatic zooming, it is rotated by the image rotation module 14 to be an output image output to the image display device 3. Next, the functions of each module included in the image adjusting device 1 will be described in detail.

第一解析度偵測模組10係用以偵測影像輸入裝置2所輸入的輸入影像之第一訊號。於實際應用中,影像輸入裝置2所輸入的輸入影像之種類及格式並無特定之限制,例如BMP格式、JPG格式或其他影像格式。請參照第2A圖,第2A圖係繪示第1圖中之第一解析度偵測模組10的詳細功能方塊圖。The first resolution detecting module 10 is configured to detect a first signal of the input image input by the image input device 2. In practical applications, there is no specific limitation on the type and format of the input image input by the image input device 2, such as BMP format, JPG format or other image formats. Please refer to FIG. 2A. FIG. 2A is a detailed functional block diagram of the first resolution detecting module 10 in FIG. 1 .

如第2A圖所示,第一解析度偵測模組10包含彼此電性連接的儲存單元100及偵測單元102。其中,儲存單元100係用以儲存顯示器計時表,顯示器計時表中記錄有對應於不同水平同步訊號及垂直同步訊號的水平解析度及垂直解析度。當第一解析度偵測模組10接收到輸入影像的第一訊號時,偵測單元102將會偵測第一訊號中之水平同步訊號及垂直同步訊號,並自儲存單元100所儲存之顯示器計時表尋找出相對應的第一水平解析度及第一垂直解析度。舉例而言,偵測單元102所偵測到的輸入影像之第一水平解析度及第一垂直解析度可以是2400X1600個像素,但不以此為限。As shown in FIG. 2A, the first resolution detection module 10 includes a storage unit 100 and a detection unit 102 that are electrically connected to each other. The storage unit 100 is configured to store a display chronograph, and the display chronograph records horizontal resolution and vertical resolution corresponding to different horizontal synchronization signals and vertical synchronization signals. When the first resolution detecting module 10 receives the first signal of the input image, the detecting unit 102 detects the horizontal synchronization signal and the vertical synchronization signal in the first signal, and the display stored in the storage unit 100 The chronograph finds a corresponding first horizontal resolution and first vertical resolution. For example, the first horizontal resolution and the first vertical resolution of the input image detected by the detecting unit 102 may be 2400×1600 pixels, but not limited thereto.

於實際應用中,儲存單元100所儲存的可以是常見的視訊電子標準協會(VESA)離散顯示器計時表,如第2B圖所示。由第2B圖可知,若輸入影像之水平同步訊號的頻率為43.3千兆赫,且輸入影像之垂直同步訊號的頻率為85赫茲,則可以得到第一水平解析度為640個像素,第一垂直解析度為480個像素,但不以此為限。In practical applications, the storage unit 100 may store a common Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) discrete display chronograph, as shown in FIG. 2B. It can be seen from Fig. 2B that if the frequency of the horizontal sync signal of the input image is 43.3 GHz and the frequency of the vertical sync signal of the input image is 85 Hz, the first horizontal resolution is 640 pixels, and the first vertical resolution is obtained. The degree is 480 pixels, but not limited to this.

如第2C圖所示,第二解析度偵測模組11係自影像顯示裝置3接收第二訊號,並根據第二訊號得到影像顯示裝置3之第二水平解析度及第二垂直解析度。舉例而言,影像顯示裝置3之第二水平解析度及第二垂直解析度可以是640個像素及480個像素,但不以此為限。實際上,第二解析度偵測模組11所接收之第二訊號即為對應於影像顯示裝置3之延伸顯示識別資料(Extended Display Identification Data,EDID)。As shown in FIG. 2C, the second resolution detecting module 11 receives the second signal from the image display device 3, and obtains the second horizontal resolution and the second vertical resolution of the image display device 3 according to the second signal. For example, the second horizontal resolution and the second vertical resolution of the image display device 3 may be 640 pixels and 480 pixels, but not limited thereto. In fact, the second signal received by the second resolution detecting module 11 is an Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) corresponding to the image display device 3.

所謂的延伸顯示識別資料(EDID)係指螢幕解析度的資料,包括廠商名稱與生產序號。一般而言,延伸顯示識別資料(EDID)大多儲存於顯示器的可程式化唯讀記憶體(Programmable Read-Only Memory,PROM)或電子抹除式可程式化唯讀記憶體(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory,EEPROM)內,通常都是透過I2 C匯流排進行延伸顯示識別資料之讀取。目前的HDMI 1.0-1.3c係使用延伸顯示識別資料(EDID)結構1.3版。The so-called Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) refers to the resolution of the screen, including the manufacturer's name and production serial number. In general, Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is mostly stored in a Displayable Read-Only Memory (PROM) or Electronically Erasable Programmable Read- In Only Memory (EEPROM), it is usually read through the I 2 C bus bar to display the identification data. The current HDMI 1.0-1.3c uses the Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) structure version 1.3.

自動縮放係數產生模組12係用以根據第一解析度(例如為2400X1600個像素)及第二解析度(例如為640X480個像素)產生自動縮放係數。請參照第2D圖,第2D圖係繪示第1圖中之自動縮放係數產生模組12的詳細功能方塊圖。如第2D圖所示,自動縮放係數產生模組12包含彼此電性連接的縮放比計算單元120及縮放係數產生單元122。其中,縮放比計算單元120電性連接至第一解析度偵測模組10及第二解析度偵測模組11;縮放係數產生單元122電性連接至縮放比計算單元120及自動縮放模組13。The automatic scaling factor generation module 12 is configured to generate an automatic scaling factor based on a first resolution (eg, 2400 X 1600 pixels) and a second resolution (eg, 640×480 pixels). Please refer to FIG. 2D. FIG. 2D is a detailed functional block diagram of the automatic scaling coefficient generation module 12 in FIG. 1 . As shown in FIG. 2D, the automatic scaling coefficient generation module 12 includes a scaling ratio calculation unit 120 and a scaling coefficient generation unit 122 that are electrically connected to each other. The scaling ratio calculating unit 120 is electrically connected to the first resolution detecting module 10 and the second resolution detecting module 11; the scaling coefficient generating unit 122 is electrically connected to the scaling ratio calculating unit 120 and the automatic zooming module. 13.

於此實施例中,當縮放比計算單元120根據第一訊號及第二訊號計算出縮放比(scaling ratio)後,縮放係數產生單元122根據縮放比產生自動縮放係數(auto-scaling coefficient)至自動縮放模組13。舉例而言,若影像顯示裝置3最大的解析度只有640X480個像素,但輸入影像之第一水平解析度及第一垂直解析度為2400X1600個像素,故水平自動縮放係數為640/2400=0.267且垂直自動縮放係數為480/1600=0.3,使得最後輸入影像可配合影像顯示裝置3之解析度而輸出為640X480個像素。In this embodiment, after the scaling ratio calculating unit 120 calculates a scaling ratio according to the first signal and the second signal, the scaling coefficient generating unit 122 generates an auto-scaling coefficient to the automatic according to the scaling ratio. Zoom module 13. For example, if the maximum resolution of the image display device 3 is only 640×480 pixels, but the first horizontal resolution and the first vertical resolution of the input image are 2400×1600 pixels, the horizontal automatic scaling factor is 640/2400=0.267 and The vertical auto scaling factor is 480/1600=0.3, so that the last input image can be output to 640×480 pixels in accordance with the resolution of the image display device 3.

當自動縮放模組13接收到自動縮放係數時,自動縮放模組13將會根據自動縮放係數調整輸入影像之大小並將縮放後之輸入影像輸出至影像旋轉模組14。當外部旋轉控制器15根據使用者動作產生外部旋轉控制訊號至影像旋轉模組14時,影像旋轉模組14將會根據外部旋轉控制訊號旋轉該輸入影像之角度。藉此,即使是在影像顯示裝置3受到空間之限制而無法正向架設,或是影像顯示裝置3受到探照角度之限制而無法固定正向輸入影像的特殊情況下,影像顯示裝置3仍可顯示自動縮放旋轉後的輸出影像,以利使用者欣賞。When the automatic zoom module 13 receives the automatic zoom factor, the automatic zoom module 13 will adjust the size of the input image according to the automatic zoom factor and output the scaled input image to the image rotation module 14. When the external rotation controller 15 generates an external rotation control signal to the image rotation module 14 according to the user action, the image rotation module 14 will rotate the angle of the input image according to the external rotation control signal. Therefore, even in the special case where the image display device 3 is limited by the space and cannot be erected in the forward direction, or the image display device 3 is limited by the search angle and the forward input image cannot be fixed, the image display device 3 can still be used. The output image of the auto-zoom rotation is displayed for the user to enjoy.
