Definitions
- This invention relates to light projectors. Some embodiments may be applied to project images for viewing. Other embodiments may be applied to create structured light for illumination or other purposes. Embodiments have example application in markets such as digital cinema, TV and home theater, portable and personal projection (military, mobile, etc.), indoor and outdoor personal and large screen advertising and information dissemination, signs/advertising/billboards/outdoor advertising, large- venue and live performance, medical imaging, virtual reality, computer gaming, office presentations and collaborative work, head-up displays in cars and other vehicles, smart illumination such as adaptive car head-lights, theatre spotlights, security/architectural lighting, high contrast planetarium projectors, indoor and outdoor general illumination systems, street-lighting, road-lighting, aviation lighting systems, and high-contrast simulation displays such as flight simulators
- This invention relates to systems that re-distribute light dynamically from a single or multiple light sources in order to achieve a desired light field (which may or may not comprise an image depending on the application) efficiently.
- Re-distribution of light involves taking light from one area within a light field and directing the light to another area within the light field.
- Some embodiments provide a controllable illumination system that can be used as a component in any of a wide range of lighting applications.
- Other aspects of the invention provide methods for creating light fields and light projectors which apply such methods.
- a light field projection system comprises a data processor, a computer software program, one or more light sources and a light control mechanism that includes one or more dynamically-addressable optical elements.
- the light control mechanism may also include one or more static optical elements such as lenses, mirrors, gaps, optical fibers, light guides and the like in an optical path.
- the software program when executed by the processor may process data specifying one or more desired target light fields (which may, for example, comprise anything from desired headlight patterns to image frames in a movie) and may cause the one or more dynamically-addressable optical elements to redirect light to achieve the desired light fields.
- Figure 1 is a block diagram of an example system (light efficient illuminator) at a high level.
- Figure 3 is a block diagram detailing the components within the light module which is a component of the light efficient illuminator shown in Figure 2.
- Figure 13 shows example optics of another variable laser scanning approach (with dynamically focusable lenses or other optics).
- Figure 14 is an example of an optical switch using MEMS (micro
- Figure 17 shows example optics of a system including a refinement module. It also depicts example light profiles at the output of the light efficient illuminator and at the input of the imaging device (e.g. SLM).
- the imaging device e.g. SLM
- Figure 19 shows example optics of a system including a clean-up stage and a refinement stage. It also depicts example light profiles at each stage.
- Figure 1 illustrates schematically an example system for generating a light field according to an example embodiment.
- the system is configured to receive data describing a target light field and to produce an output light field that closely matches the desired target light field by redirecting light.
- the output light field may require further optical or other treatment to produce the desired target output light field.
- Such treatment may be provided by one or more refinement stages as described herein.
- the system does this in an optically efficient manner, in which little light is wasted.
- the system includes one or more light generators (light sources) that can be operated to create light.
- the system operates the light generators to output light and then redirects the light to provide the output light field.
- the output of the light generators may be controlled to match the amount of output light to the amount of light required for the output light field. Most of the light generated by the light generator(s) may end up in the output light field.
- Figure 2 depicts an example dynamic light-efficient illuminator in more detail.
- a program is executed on a data processor.
- the program receives data describing the target light field and computes a light redistribution scheme to be applied by a dynamically- addressable light re-distributor.
- the program also computes data describing the intensities for one or more light sources that generate light supplied to the light redistributor.
- the data processor receives data describing the intensity for the light source(s) and produces a control signal for the power regulator that in turn controls the amount and/or timing of power distributed to each light source.
- the power regulator may include a plurality of separate outputs and/or may include a plurality of independent power regulation circuits.
- Each light source may emit light of different shapes, intensities and profiles.
- An example light profile produced by a light source could be a uniform, rectangular intensity profile which could be produced using integrating rods or other optics.
- Another example of a light profile has a Gaussian or sum of Gaussians intensity profile.
- Another example is an array of rectangular uniform profiles (blocks) with different intensities.
- the light profile produced by the light module can take any desired shape.
- the light from the light source(s) is then coupled to the input of the light redistributor.
- the coupling may involve spatially combining light from a plurality of light sources and/or shaping the light optically to yield light having the desired light profile for input to the dynamically-addressable light redistributor.
- the light combination and beam shaping may be done using common optical elements such as beam-splitters, polarizers, wave plates, multi-layer thin films, beam-combiners, micro-lens arrays, lenses, apertures and/or mirrors. These elements can be optimized for the nature of the light emitted by the light sources (e.g. narrow-band or broad-band light sources).
- light from a plurality of light sources is coupled into a common optical fibre and at the output of the fiber the light is collimated using a set of lenses.
- one or more light sources LS 1 to LSn are coupled into one or more optical fibres 408, for example using focusing lenses 409.
- 405 shows an example light profile of the ⁇ ⁇ light source.
- the combined output from the optical fibres 408 are relayed onto the dynamically-addressable light redistributor 407, for example using relay lens system 400, comprising, for example, two focusing lenses 401 and 402.
- the combined effect of the two lenses 401 and 402 in 400 may be to asymmetrically magnify the output profile from the optical fibres 408.
- 403 shows two example plots: at top the combined intensity across one spatial dimension of 407 and at bottom contours of the light profile present on 407 in two dimensions.
- FIG. 5 schematically illustrates one type of dynamically-addressable light redistributor.
- the dynamically-addressable light redistributor comprises receiving optics, and a dynamically-addressable focusing element.
- modules capable of yielding a wide range of output light fields is advantageous as such modules may be optimized for optical efficiency and may be applied in any of a wide range of applications as described above.
- Apparatus according to the invention may also be integrated directly into projectors, displays, lights etc. Explanation of how to use a phase modulator to create a desired light field, description of basic arrangement.
- a metric may determine when the current solution is ready to be applied to drive a PMD. After this occurs, the program may continue iterating to find a better solution. As better solutions are obtained they may be applied to drive the PMD. In an example embodiment, after a set number of iterations (e.g. 3, 4, 10, a few iterations) the current best phase pattern solution may be applied to the PMD while the computer/algorithm continues to calculate better solutions. After another few iterations a new (and better) solution may be available and can be addressed on the PMD. All this can happen within fractions of a frame of a video.
- a set number of iterations e.g. 3, 4, 10, a few iterations
- the method of Figure 10 creates an approximation of the full target light field using a number of component light fields that may be added together.
- Examples of such components may be rectangular shaped uniform light fields or Gaussian light fields.
- 1105 is configured in such a way as to produce an approximation of a desired target light field at 1107, for example at a projection screen.
- Figure 12 shows an example of variable scanning optics in which two laser beams or other light beams collectively scan an area. This scheme may be expended to any suitable number of light beams. Each light beam scans a region within the area. By altering the sizes of the scanned regions the luminance within each region may be varied. The dimensions of the scanned regions may be changed, for example, the scanned regions may be rectangular and the lengths and widths of the scanned regions may be changed, thereby altering the areas of the scanned regions.
- the scanning speed and pattern may remain fixed as the size and/or shape of a scanned region is changed or may be altered. For example, scanning speed may be reduced when the scanned region is smaller and increased when the scanned region is larger.
- a plurality of light sources such as lasers LSI and LS2 are used in conjunction with for example steerable MEMS mirrors that allow the beams to be scanned across different areas.
- LSI illuminates Area 1
- LS2 illuminates Area 2.
- LSI and LS2 illuminate the entire imaging area 1201.
- an image data processor divides the image into equal area sections, each section being illuminated by one light source each with a modulated amplitude according the requirements of the individual areas.
- the illumination comes in the form of a spot light source which is scanned across its subsection of the screen, for example using a laser and a mirror mounted on a rotational 2-axis mirror.
- the illumination comes in the form of a line light source which is scanned across its subsection of the screen, for example using a laser and a mirrors mounted on a rotational 1 -axis mirror.
- Figure 13 shows example variable laser scanning optics which is an alternative to the implementation depicted in Figure 12.
- each light source is relayed onto a respective area not as a scanning beam, but as a complete field expanded using beam shaping and expansion optics.
- Beam LSI is shaped and expanded using the asymmetric beam expander ABEL The expanded light profile is then steered using a two-axis scanning mirror 1302 onto Area 1 of the image.
- LS2 is shaped and expanded using the asymmetric beam expander ABE2.
- the expanded light profile is then steered using a two-axis scanning mirror 1301 onto Area 2 of the image.
- Asymmetric beam expander ABE2 is explained in 1310 and 1320.
- 1310 shows how the incident beam is expanded by different amounts in two perpendicular directions using the cylindrical lenses 1311 and 1312.
- the input beam profile which may be in the form of a focused spot, will result in the output light profile being a square and uniform intensity beam.
- one or both of the cylindrical lenses 1311 or 1312 may be moved by for example a motor along the optical axis of this system. Moving 1311 will change the square shape 1321 into shape 1322. Likewise, moving 1312 will change the square shape 1323 into shape 1324. If both lenses 1311 and 1312 are moved, the output light profile may be as depicted in 1325.
- the output light profiles from ABE1 and ABE2 may be steered by 1301 and 1302 so that their combined illumination from 1300 and 1303 fills the complete image.
- 1522 shows the output light profile from integration rods IRl and IR2.
- the average intensity of 1525 is approximately that of the average intensity of 1523.
- the average intensity of 1526 is approximately that of the average intensity of 1524 combined or integrated.
- the refined output light- field may be imaged or relayed onto a projection screen or the like in the usual manner.
- a light-efficient illuminator may be combined with one or several refinement modules which may be arranged in serial and/or parallel configurations.
- Another use of the refinement module is to minimize visual artifacts introduced by the light efficient illuminator.
- these improvements may be executed in accordance with analysis of the light efficient illuminator output as well as models of the human visual system such as colour appearance models, visual difference predictors or other models.
- the dynamic light efficient illuminator provides a first low quality version of the target light field, for example low spatial resolution colour image, as input to the refinement module.
- the refinement module may comprise a single spatial amplitude modulator of high spatial resolution relative to the colour image and provide luminance modulation only.
- the combined output may be different from the target light field in an absolute sense, but perceptually comparable.
- the output light field be of high fidelity, uniformity, or predictability.
- an output light field may include undesirable sharp spikes or other optical noise not specified for the target light field.
- One could reduce these issues by providing an array of homogenizing elements such as an array of independent integrating rods or a bundle of fibers or a number of optical waveguides between the illuminator and the refinement module.
- the spatially-varying output light- field is then reduced to a number of known intensity profile regions matching the number of homogenizing elements (e.g. fibers or integrating rods) used.
- Figure 19 depicts an example implementation of a light-efficient illuminator combined with a clean-up module and a refinement module.
- the output of the light- efficient illuminator 1900 is relayed using for example a lens 1901 onto an array of integration rods 1902, IR1, IR2, IR3 and IR4.
- the output 1903 of the array of integration rods is further relayed onto 1905 using for example a lens 1904.
- 1905 represents the refinement module, for example in the form of an amplitude-modulating SLM.
- the output of 1905 is relayed onto for example a projection screen 1912 using for example a lens 1911.
- An example output light-field from 1900 is depicted in 1907.
- Such stages may be arranged to process light in a serial or parallel fashion, or a mix thereof.
- different light fields can be combined by a beam-splitter or beam-combiner, for example a dichroic mirror in order to combine light of different frequencies, or a polarizing beam-splitter in order to combine light with different polarizations.
- the output of one stage is used as the input for the next stage.
- one system can use a frequency modulator in parallel with a phase modulator, both of which are placed in series with a spatial amplitude modulator.
- the two parallel stages can be combined by a beam-combiner before they are relayed onto the spatial amplitude modulator which is placed in series with the parallel stage.
- the total amount of light for each color within one video frame in a color field sequential drive scheme can either be modulated at the source by reducing the intensity of individual light sources over a fixed period of time as depicted in 2000, or by a fixed intensity over varying amounts of time as depicted in 2020 or by a combination of these two schemes, not depicted here.
- 2000 the intensity modulating approach is depicted for red by 2001, green by 2002 and blue by 2003.
- 2020 the time modulating approach is depicted for red by 2021, green by 2022 and blue by 2023.
- the invention may also be provided in the form of a program product.
