Definitions
- the present invention relates to a laser device for projecting a structured light pattern onto a scene using several arrays of semiconductor lasers, in particular vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs). Structured light patterns projected onto a scene and observed with a camera enable the extraction of 3D information by image processing.
- VCSELs vertical cavity surface emitting lasers
- Such a method is applied e. g. in the Microsoft KinectTM game console and recently discussed for industrial applications, especially in the automotive field.
- the new EU-NCAP safety norm enforces a distance measurement which is able to detect pedestrians and provides a resolution which allows autonomous measures taken by the car system.
- the required structured light pattern can be generated by dedicated micro- optical systems like micro-lens arrays or diffractive optical elements (DOE) which are illuminated by a laser, e. g. by an array of VCSELs.
- DOE diffractive optical elements
- 2012/051588 Al which discloses a laser device for projecting a structured light pattern onto a scene using at least one VCSEL array.
- the light from the VCSEL array is focused through a collimating micro-lens array which directs the beams from the VCSEL array to a DOE.
- the DOE forms the beams into a variety of light patterns which then enable the desired 3D imaging.
- the object is achieved with the laser device according to claim 1.
- the proposed laser device is formed of several arrays of semiconductor lasers, each array comprising a preferably different irregular distribution of emission areas of the semiconductor lasers. This distribution deviates from a regular arrangement of the emission areas, e.g. in a grid or hexagonal pattern, preferably in a randomized fashion.
- One or several optics are arranged in front of the arrays of semiconductor lasers to image said arrays to an imaging space and to superpose the images of said arrays in the imaging space thereby forming said light pattern.
- the light pattern which may be projected to a scene or an imaging plane in the imaging space is composed of a plurality of beam spots originating from the semiconductor lasers of each array.
- This image space corresponds to the capturing area of a 3D imaging system or system for extracting 3D information from a scene arranged in this image space. Due to the direct imaging a high efficiency of the laser device and a maximum contrast between bright and dark regions of the structured light pattern are achieved.
- the fill factor is increased compared with known solutions since the images of the several semiconductor laser arrays are superimposed in the image space resulting in an increased density of beam spots due to the superposition.
- the distribution of the emission areas of the semiconductor lasers of each array may be completely randomized with the condition that necessary distances between the emission areas due to the manufacturing process and construction of the lasers are maintained.
- the distribution of the emission areas of each array may also be chosen such that the deviation of the position of these areas from a regular pattern is randomized but limited in the maximum distance of deviation, for example limited to a maximum distance of once or twice the diameter of the emission area in the corresponding direction of deviation. In the latter case preferably the distribution of the emission areas in each array and the superposition of the images of these arrays in the image space are selected such that not all but most of the beam spots do not overlap in the image space, preferably more than 80 %.
- etch slopes and minimum oxide widths may be for example about 33 ⁇ for a small active area VCSEL of e. g. 3 ⁇ active diameter.
- the active diameter corresponds to the emission area of the VCSEL. Larger active diameters require a larger pitch, e. g. a 10 ⁇ active area requires a 40 ⁇ pitch.
- An irregular distribution or a randomization of the distribution of VCSELs means a freedom to move the position of a VCSEL mesa independent from the position of the neighboring VCSELs.
- the irregular or randomized distribution of the emission areas of the semiconductor lasers is characterized by a random shift of the individual emitters in each array by position in the two directions of the surface with respect to an arrangement in a regular pattern. This shift covers a distance of at least the active diameter of the semiconductor laser, i.e. some of the lasers of each array are shifted by at least this distance.
- the distribution of the emission areas or lasers in each array is completely randomized.
- randomization means that this shift in the position with respect to a regular pattern of each individual emitter or the randomized distribution can be generated by a randomizing algorithm.
- the term random or randomization in this context is however not restricted to the generation by a randomizing algorithm but also covers irregular distributions in which the shifts are only selected to avoid any periodicity or regularity in the distribution.
- the imaging optics is adapted and arranged such that most of the beam spots on an image plane or scene in the image space comprise at least one neighboring beam spot which originates from a different array. This significantly reduces the problems of dead areas caused by failure patterns in the semiconductor arrays.
- the semiconductor lasers are VCSELs. Since for small active diameters the pitch of VCSEL arrays is
- the interlaced superposing results in an effective active ratio (bright versus dark) which is three times higher than with a single array.
- a high effective aperture ratio is desirable, because on the one hand a bright spot should cover several pixels of a camera used for a extracting the 3D-information from the scene to which the light pattern is projected (determination of center of gravity is more accurate than single pixel).
- the maximum number of pixels of a cheap camera is limited.
- the laser device with VCSEL arrays also the shape of the emission area of the VCSELs, i. e. the emitting aperture or active region of the
- VCSELs is varied. With such a variation of the VCSEL shape ambiguities in the recorded image for 3D information extraction are resolved more easily. As a consequence the number of spots can be reduced and less than 300 horizontal spots are required in the above mentioned application to fulfill the EU-NCAP safety norm. The need for a larger number of beam spots partially is based on the need to resolve ambiguities and not only for angular resolution. Using two different VCSEL shapes already reduces the ambiguities. Preferably at least three different VCSEL shapes are used, e. g. circle, horizontal rectangle and vertical rectangle. Such shapes can be distinguished by a camera observing the scene onto which the structured light pattern is projected, since the camera resolution is significantly higher than the array resolution.
- the different VCSEL shapes can be provided on each array, on only one of the arrays or different arrays can provide different VCSEL shapes. If different VCSEL shapes are provided on one array, the different shapes are preferably selected such that all of these shapes have a similar threshold current which means that the emission area of the different shapes is substantially similar. This makes it possible to have different shapes on one single VCSEL chip. If the shapes on a chip are selected identical and several chips or arrays are provided with different shapes, the above need for similar threshold current is released.
- a control unit for driving the semiconductor arrays which allows to switch on and off the individual arrays or chips sequentially.
- the resulting image in the image space is then changing in time and this information can be used to resolve ambiguities further.
- This method is well possible since light is only required for a small percentage of the total time, e. g. 1 % for the above automotive application.
- the sequential switching also reduces the maximum power output which is advantageous in view of the laser safety and the maximum power requirement, e. g. layout of the driver and EMI (electromagnetic interference).
- the proposed laser device may be implemented in a 3D imaging system or 3D measuring system.
- a 3D imaging system comprises a camera which images a scene to which the structured light pattern is projected, a synchronization interface between the camera and the laser device and an evaluation unit extracting the required 3D information from the camera image.
- the synchronization interface ensures that pictures of the scene are only taken during illumination with the structured light pattern.
- Such a system also includes at least one power supply for the laser device. Also several power supplies can be used, one for each array or chip. For the sequential operation at least part of the circuitry can be shared.
- Fig. 1 an example of the projection of one of the VCSEL arrays of the proposed device onto an image plane
- Fig. 2 an example for the randomized distribution of the VCSELs in a VCSEL array of the proposed laser device
- Fig. 3 a schematic view illustrating the superposition of different VCSEL arrays of the proposed laser device in the image space
- Fig. 4 a schematic view showing a 3D imaging system including the proposed laser device.
- the proposed laser device comprises several semiconductor arrays with corresponding optics to image the emission areas of the semiconductor lasers to an image space.
- Figure 1 shows an example for a basic layout of one module of the proposed laser device. Each module comprises one of the VCSEL-arrays used in this example.
- the VCSEL array is provided in a package providing electrical contacts and heat removal.
- Figure 1 shows the corresponding VCSEL chip 1 carrying the VCSEL array with several VCSELs 2.
- the VCSEL chip 1 is mounted on a heat sink 3 for heat removal.
- An imaging lens 4 is arranged in front of the VCSEL-chip 1 to image the emission areas of the individual VCSELs 2 of the array to an image plane 7 in the desired image space.
- the image space is a depth region, also called capturing area in case of a 3D imaging system, into which the VCSEL array is imaged by the lens 4.
- the imaging conditions to image an e. g. a VCSEL 2 having a 4 ⁇ diameter active area to the image space are very similar to the conditions to image the scene in the image space onto the camera chip with equal pixel size, since this corresponds only to the reverse light path. Therefore a cheap and similar lens 4 can be used in the proposed laser device.
- this imaging lens 4 the laser beams 5 emitted by the VCSELs 2 are focused to beam spots 6 in the image space.
- the shape of these beam spots 6 on an image plane 7 corresponds to the shape of the emission areas of the VCSELs 2 of the VCSEL-chip 1.
- this module has to be replicated. If several modules are placed next to each other on one mounting plane the overlap of the images of the VCSEL arrays in the far field, i.e. in the image space, is already good without any further adjustment. If necessary, the imaging lenses 4 of each of the modules may be slightly adjusted such that the beam spots of the VCSELs 2 of the different VCSEL-chips 1 do not overlap in the image space. In order to improve the adjustment of the lenses adjustment marks, in particular dedicated emission areas, may be provided on each array which have to be superposed in an image plane for an optimal adjustment.
- the VCSEL-chips 1 of the proposed laser device are fabricated such that the position of the individual VCSELs 2 on the chip, in particular of the emission areas of the VCSELs 2, deviate from a regular pattern in a randomized fashion or are completely distributed in a randomized fashion.
- Figure 2 shows a schematic view of an example of such a distribution of the emission areas 2a of the VCSELs 2 on the chip 1.
- the bond pad 8 for electrical contacting the VCSELs 2 is also shown in this array layout.
- the emission areas 2a of the VCSELs 2 are arranged in a randomized distribution without any periodicity or regularity.
- the active diameter of the emission areas 2a of the single VCSELs 2 of the chip may be about 4 ⁇ . This diameter is sufficient for a 3 mW power in pulsed operation with e. g. 100 ⁇
- three VCSEL-arrays or VCSEL-chips 1 are used in the laser device.
- Each chip comprises 100 VCSELs in horizontal (x-) direction and 40 VCSELs in vertical (y-) direction resulting in a chip size of 4.2 mm x 1.68 mm.
- the total chip area (all three chips) consumed is 21.2 mm 2 .
- the superposing by the corresponding imaging optics is done mainly in the horizontal direction which means that the average distance between the beam spots is horizontally 3 times smaller than vertically in the imaging plane.
- the vertical direction is additionally possible if desired. This enables a more equal spacing of the beam spots in horizontal and vertical direction in the above case in which the superposing is mainly performed in the horizontal direction.
- the shape of the emission areas of the VCSELs can be adapted to such a squeezing, i.e. the vertical dimension (y-dimension) of the active areas of the VCSELs may be selected larger than the horizontal dimension (x- dimension) such that the above squeezing results in beam spots having nearly equal horizontal and vertical dimensions.
- the imaging optics may also be adapted such that the images of the different arrays are slightly shifted in vertical direction in order to have similar spacing of the beam spots in both directions rather than an alignment along horizontal lines with dark regions in between.
- the VCSELs of the different arrays may be selected to have different shapes of the active area.
- Figure 3 shows three different array layouts having a rectangular shape in the vertical direction, a circular shape and a rectangular shape in the horizontal direction.
- the three VCSEL chips 1 are imaged with the corresponding imaging lens 4 to the image plane 7 as schematically indicated in the figure.
- the resulting light pattern 9 is shown in the upper portion of figure 3.
- the beam spots 6 originating from each VCSEL chip 1 are imaged into spaces between the beam spots 6 of the remaining VCSEL chips, respectively. This results in a light pattern 9 in which the different VCSEL shapes of the different VCSEL chips 1 are mixed in the imaging plane 7.
- the different VCSEL shapes are provided on different arrays. It is also possible to mix the different shapes on the single arrays. In such an embodiment the areas of the different shapes should be selected such that the VCSELs have a similar threshold current.
- Figure 4 shows a schematic view of an example of a 3D measurement system including the proposed laser device 10.
- This system also includes a camera 11 taking images of the structured light pattern projected onto a scene 15.
- the camera 11 is connected via a synchronization unit 12 to the laser device 10 in order to be synchronized with the pulsed illumination of the scene.
- the power supplies of the laser device 10 may be connected to a control unit 13 for a sequential operation of the different VCSEL chips of the device 10.
- An evaluation unit 14 may be provided in order to extract the desired 3D information from the image or images captured with the camera 11.
- Such a system may be used in the applications already described in the introductory portion of the description, in particular in automotive applications for capturing the scene in front of the car.
- the arrays of the proposed laser device may be arranged in any configuration, for example in a line or in a triangle. Also only two arrays or more than three arrays may be provided in order to achieve the desired superposition. Furthermore, the number of semiconductor lasers of each array may be different from the above example, depending on the required resolution of the system. Instead of VCSELs also other types of semiconductor lasers may be used, e.g. edge emitters.
- the word "comprising” does not exclude other elements or steps, and the indefinite article "a” or “an” does not exclude a plurality.
