Definitions

  • a projector projects patterns of light such as infrared (IR) dots or lines to illuminate a scene being sensed.
  • the projected patterns are then captured by a camera/sensor (two or more in stereo systems), with the image (or images) processed to compute a depth map or the like.
  • stereo cameras capture two images from different viewpoints. Then, for example, one way to perform depth estimation with a stereo pair of images is to find correspondences of local patches between the images, e.g., to correlate each projected and sensed local dot pattern in the left image with a counterpart local dot pattern in the right image. Once matched, the projected patterns within the images may be correlated with one another, and disparities between one or more features of the correlated dots used to estimate (e.g., triangulate) a depth to that particular dot pair.
  • IR lasers have been used to produce such patterns.
  • more powerful lasers around 1W or more
  • multi-mode lasers are more cost-effective.
  • using multi-mode lasers results in the design pattern looking blurrier at closer distances. This is problematic in active stereo depth sensing, because correlating the correct pairs of left and right pairs of dots is subject to more errors when the dots are blurred.
  • a projector including a laser and a diffractive optical component projects a light pattern towards a scene.
  • the diffractive optical component is configured to output the light pattern as a plurality of sets of sub-patterns, with each set corresponding to a different range of intensities.
  • One or more aspects are directed towards generating a grid comprising a first set of points, associating each point in the first set with an intensity value that is within a first intensity range, adding a second set of points between subsets of points of the first set of points and associating each point in the second set with an intensity value that is within a second intensity range. This subdivision process may be repeated if necessary.
  • a diffractive optical component may be encoded based upon the first set of points and the second set of points.
  • Another variant is to generate a random set of points with approximately uniform density throughout, with a random subset of them having a specified range of intensities, and the rest having a different range of intensities.
  • One or more aspects are directed towards projecting light through a diffractive optical component to project a pattern comprising a first set of spots corresponding to a the first intensity range, and a second set of spots corresponding to a second intensity range.
  • the positions of the spots in the first set are based upon an initial grid layout, and the positions of spots in the second set of spots are based upon the positions of the first set of spots.
  • the first set of spots and the second set of spots are sensed as left and right stereo camera images.
  • the images are processed to correlate spots in the left image with spots in the right image, in which scanlines of the images are not aligned with the initial grid layout.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram representing example components that may be used to project and capture a light pattern modulated with different intensities, according to one or more example implementations.
  • FIG. 2 is a representation of an example of projecting dots having different intensities into a scene, according to one or more example implementations.
  • FIGS. 3A and 3B are representations of a pattern may be designed based upon a grid, and subdivision of points aligned via the grid, to facilitate having points with different intensities, according to one or more example implementations.
  • FIG. 4 is a representation of further subdivision of points having different intensities, according to one or more example implementations.
  • FIG. 5 is a flow diagram representing example steps in laying out points for of different intensities, such as for encoding corresponding data into a diffractive optical element, according to one or more example implementations.
  • FIG. 6 is a block diagram representing example components of a device that projects a diffraction pattern of light having different intensities, according to one example implementation.

  • the cameras capture infrared (IR) images, as IR does not affect the visible appearance of the scene (which is highly advantageous, such as in video conferencing and object modeling applications).
  • IR infrared
  • more than two IR depth-sensing cameras may be present.
  • one or more other cameras may be present in a given system, such as RBG cameras, and such other cameras may be used to help correlate dot pairs in different stereo images, for example.

  • dots are generally described hereinafter.
  • the cameras 102 and 103 capture texture data as part of the infrared image data.
  • the dots in the pattern are arranged with different intensities, and also the pattern may be rotated relative to the cameras.
  • the pattern with intensity modulation may be designed (e.g., encoded) into a diffractive optical component (a diffractive optical element or combination of elements) that disperse laser light into the scene, e.g., as a dot pattern.
  • FIG. 2 exemplifies this projection concept.
  • the projector 106 represented as a circle in between the stereo cameras 102 and 103 , projects a dot pattern onto a scene 222 .
  • the dot pattern is modulated with different intensities, and the dot pattern may be rotated (e.g., fifteen degrees) relative to the cameras' orientation.
  • the cameras 102 and 103 capture the dots as they reflect off of object surfaces in the scene 222 and (possibly) the background. In general, one or more features of the captured dots are indicative of the distance to the reflective surface.
  • FIG. 2 is not intended to be to scale, nor convey any sizes, distance, dot distribution pattern, dot density and so on. However, it is understood that different intensities exist in the dot pattern, and that the dot pattern may be rotated relative to the cameras.
  • the placement of the projector 106 may be outside the cameras (e.g., FIG. 1 ), or in between the cameras ( FIG. 2 ) or at another location, such as above or below one or both of the cameras.
  • the examples herein are in no way limiting of where the cameras and/or projector are located relative to one another, and similarly, the cameras may be positioned at different positions relative to each other.
  • the example image capturing system or subsystem 104 includes a controller 108 that via a camera interface 110 controls the operation of the cameras 102 and 103 .
  • the exemplified controller via a projector interface 112 also controls the operation of the projector 106 .
  • the cameras 102 and 103 are synchronized (genlocked) to capture stereo images at the same time, such as by a controller signal (or different signals for each camera).
  • the projector 106 may be turned on or off, pulsed, and otherwise have one or more parameters controllably varied, for example.
  • the images 116 captured by the cameras 102 and 103 are provided to an image processing system or subsystem 118 .
  • the image processing system 118 and image capturing system or subsystem 104 may be combined into a single device.
  • a home entertainment device may include all of the components shown in FIG. 1 (as well as others not shown).
  • parts (or all) of the image capturing system or subsystem 104 such as the cameras and projector, may be a separate device that couples to a gaming console, personal computer, mobile device, dedicated processing device and/or the like.
  • a gaming console is exemplified in FIG. 10 as one environment that may be used for processing images into depth data.
  • the image processing system or subsystem 118 includes a processor 120 and a memory 122 containing one or more image processing algorithms 124 .
  • One or more depth maps may be obtained via the algorithms 124 such as by extracting matching features (such as dots and/or lines).
  • matching features such as dots and/or lines.
  • different dots or other projected elements have different features when captured, including intensity (brightness), depending on the distance from the projector to the reflective surfaces and/or the distance from the camera to the reflective surfaces.
  • the dots in different images taken at the same time may be correlated with one another, such as by matching small (e.g., RGB) patches between RGB color images of the same scene captured at the same instant.
  • known algorithms can determine individual depth-related features (depth maps) by matching projected light components (e.g., dots) in each image, using disparities of certain features between matched dots to determine depths. This is one way in which a depth map may be obtained via stereo image processing.
  • an interface 132 to the image processing system or subsystem 118 such as for connecting a keyboard, game controller, display, pointing device microphone for speech commands and/or the like as appropriate for a user to interact with an application or the like that uses the depth map.
  • FIGS. 3A and 3B along with FIG. 4 show the concept of subdivision, in which dots of larger intensity (larger dots with an “X” shaped cross therein) are arranged in a triangular grid layout 330 ( FIG. 3A ).
  • each triangle of the larger intensity dots is subdivided by triangles of lesser intensity dots (circles), providing the pattern 332 .
  • each of those sub-triangle sub-patterns is further subdivided by even lesser intensity dots (smaller-sized circles relative to those in FIG. 3B ).
  • FIG. 4 represents a triangular pattern 440 of higher intensity dots, medium intensity dots, and lower intensity dots.
  • the dot sizes relative to the distribution pattern and each other are only intended to illustrate distribution of dots of differing relative intensities or intensity ranges, and are not intended to convey any particular intensity levels or ranges.
  • FIG. 5 summarizes subdivision, beginning at step 502 where in this example a triangular grid of a specified between-vertex distance is generated, e.g., comprising regular triangles or substantially regular triangles (or other polygons).
  • the intensity peaks are set to a high value; however rather than being the same intensity value for each point, the high values may be randomly set to be within a high range (step 504 ), e.g., between 200-255 (with 255 being the maximum intensity).
  • an intensity “range” includes a range with as little as one single fixed intensity value, e.g., a range may be from 200 to 200.
  • Step 506 represents adding points between the previously generated points, e.g., as smaller sets of triangles (a “subdivision”) such as shown in FIG. 3B .
  • Step 508 randomly sets the intensity peaks of these points to be within a lower range, e.g., between 100-125. Note that these example intensity ranges do not overlap one another, but it is feasible to have different ranges overlap to an extent; if weighted random techniques may be used to bias most values in overlapping ranges away from one another.
  • Step 510 evaluates whether subdivision has been completed to the lowest desired level, which is configurable. Thus, by returning to step 506 , another subdivision of points may be optionally added, (such as exemplified in FIG. 4 ), with an even lower range of intensities, and so on, until the desired pattern and sets of intensities/intensity ranges is reached.
  • the result is a projection pattern that contains sub-patterns, in this example different sets of triangular sub-patterns, such as a larger intensity sub-pattern set and a smaller-intensity sub-pattern set ( FIG. 3B ), or small, medium and large intensity sub-pattern sets ( FIG. 4 ) and so on.
  • the sets/sub-patterns are interleaved via subdivision.
  • step 512 represents pseudo-randomly rearranging (e.g., slightly “jittering”) at least some of the points into modified positions, such as to further reduce repetition intervals.
  • this repositioning of a point is small relative to its respective triangle (or other grid pattern), whereby the regular polygon or substantially regular polygon is now modified to be only generally/approximately regular.
  • FIG. 6 is one such example configuration in which a diffractive optical component 660 (e.g., diffractive optical one or more elements) is configured to output an intensity-modulated illumination pattern.
  • the component 660 may be built into or coupled to device 662 , such as a built into or part of a home entertainment device.
  • a laser 664 e.g., multimode
  • Stereo cameras 666 A and 666 B capture the reflection from an illuminated object (e.g., person 668 ) and use the captured images as desired; note that a single camera may be used in a given implementation.
  • the diffractive optical component 660 disperses the laser light into a large number of spots based upon the pattern designed as described herein, such as on the order of 100,000 dots. Some of the pattern is represented in FIG. 1 by the solid lines coming from the element and by the dots on the object/person 668 and image plane 670 . Note that as with any of the figures herein, neither FIG. 6 nor its components are intended to be to scale or convey any particular distance, distribution and/or the like.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate another aspect, namely rotation of the modulated patterns.
  • camera captured dots of part of a left pattern 770 L are shown alongside parts of a right pattern 770 R.
  • dot A correlates with dot C, and is supposed to be matched.
  • dot B or possibly dot D may be erroneously matched with dot A
  • FIG. 8 camera-captured dots of part of a rotated left pattern 880 L are shown alongside parts of a rotated right pattern 880 R.
  • the rotation e.g., by fifteen degrees in this example, although other rotational angles may be used helps to provide a larger repetition interval along the scanline (x-direction).
  • Rotation and intensity distribution is generally shown in the partial image representation 990 of FIG. 9 , where the dots are illustrated by concentric circles, and (some relative) intensity by the sizes thereof.
  • the pixels are represented by the square blocks behind the dots. Note that in FIG. 9 the different diameters of the circles only suggest changes in intensity; the size of the circles and the grid squares are not intended to convey any particular scale, resolution, or the like, nor any particular intensity value or relative intensity values (other than within at least two different ranges). Further, the density of the dots and/or their sizes or distribution are not intended to represent any actual density and/or distribution.
  • a light pattern modulated with different intensities may be based upon a grid, and projected such that the cameras that capture the light pattern are not aligned with the grid on which the pattern was based.
