This occurs, and as the occurrence of this situation indicates that the user operating the electro-optical instrument 100 is about to use the illumination of the illumination fill light system 20, the control module 23 turns on the illumination source 21; otherwise, the illumination source 21 is turned off.

Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 2A, FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, in one embodiment of the present invention, at least one The sensor 22 includes:

Detecting a distance between the preset object and the reference component, and transmitting first detection information including the information of the distance to the first sensor 221 of the control module 23;

The control module 23 includes:

Receiving the first detection information, controlling the illumination light source 21 to be turned on when the distance is within a preset distance range; or controlling the illumination when the distance is not within a preset distance range The first control sub-module 231 is closed by the light source 21.

In this embodiment, the distance between the preset object and the reference component is detected by the first sensor 221, and the obtained first detection information including the information of the distance is sent to the first control submodule 231; The control sub-module 231 determines, when the distance is within a preset distance range, the illumination source 21 is turned on according to the received first detection information; or when the distance is not within the preset distance range, Then, the illumination source 21 is turned off. Thereby, the timely closing and opening of the illumination source 21 of the illumination fill light system 20 is realized, and the battery energy of the illumination fill light system 20 is saved.

When the range is within, the illumination source 21 is turned on, and the illumination source 21 is turned off. The reference component may also be the sheath 12, and the preset distance ranges from 0 cm to 20 cm; that is, a preset object, such as a human head, is opened when the sheath 12 is within a range of 0 cm to 20 cm.

In this embodiment, different from the previous embodiment, at least one of the sensors 22 further includes a second sensor 222, and the second sensor 222 detects whether the preset object exists within the preset distance range. Other objects, such as obstacles other than the human head or the eye or the face, when the obstacles appear within the preset distance range, if the second sensor 222 and the second sensor are not provided The second control sub-module 232 performs a corresponding function. Since the first sensor 221 detects that it is within the preset distance range, the first control sub-module 231 will turn on the illumination source 21. However, in practice, it is not necessary to turn on the illumination source 21 at this time. On the other hand, if the distance is within a preset distance range, and an object other than the preset object, such as an obstacle, can be detected within the preset distance range, the detected object is not detected. When the preset object is described, if the face of the human body is not detected, then the human body is left, and the illumination source 21 that is turned on at this moment is turned off by the second control module 232.

Therefore, adding the second sensor 222, such as an infrared sensor, can determine whether it is a preset object, such as the head or the eye or face of the human body is close to the illumination fill light system 20, if not the head or the eye or the face of the human body. When it is close, the illumination source 21 is not turned on, and the misjudgment caused by other obstacles is removed. Therefore, the combination of the first sensor 221 and the second sensor 222 is used to make the determination of the turning on or off of the illumination source 21 more accurate.

In one embodiment of the invention, sensor 22 is a detection device that incorporates a sensor detection circuit at the bottom 20 of the illumination fill system. Detecting the user's eye (or head), when the proximity is detected, indicating that the electro-optical instrument 100 is to be used. At this time, the illumination fill light system 20 determines that the illumination fill light system 20 is to be used according to the detected signal. The power of the illumination source 201 is intelligently turned on, and no manual control is required. When the departure is detected, it means that the illumination fill light system 20 is not needed. At this time, the illumination fill light system 20 determines that the illumination fill light system 20 can be turned off according to the detected signal, and intelligently turns off the power of the illumination light source 201. .

In an embodiment of the present invention, the preset object may be a human body, that is, any part of the human body may be set as a preset object, such as a human hand. The second sensor 222 is mounted on the bottom 201 of the illumination fill light system. When the human eye is close to the eyepiece (ie, close to the sheath 12), the ultrasonic sensor can detect the human body (such as a person's face) when the display screen 11 is to be observed. The distance from the bottom 201 of the illumination fill system. When the distance reaches the set preset distance range, the illumination fill light system 20 starts to operate and the illumination light source 21 is turned on. The ultrasonic sensor has been working continuously. When it is detected that the human eye is away from the display screen 11 and is no longer observed, at this time, the distance of the human face from the illumination fill light system 20 becomes larger, when the set value is exceeded, It is indicated that the device is no longer used and the illumination source 21 is turned off. Therefore, if an infrared sensor is added, it can be judged whether the human body is close to the illumination fill light system. If the human body is not close, the illumination light source is not turned on, and the misjudgment caused by other obstacles is removed. Thereby, the intelligent control of the illumination light source is turned on and off, the operation convenience of use is improved, and the energy consumption is greatly saved, and the battery working time is prolonged.

In one embodiment of the present invention, in FIG. 2A, the range b of the human eye from the display sheath is a normal viewing area, and at this time, the illumination source needs to be turned on. The distance detected by the ultrasonic wave is a+b. When the range of the human eye from the display sheath exceeds b, that is, the distance detected by the ultrasonic wave exceeds a+b, the light source is turned off. In actual cases, the value of b is generally within 10 cm. The value of a is generally within 8 cm, and of course other values are also possible.

In summary, the illumination supplementing system of the electro-optical instrument of the present invention includes at least one sensor, an illumination source, and a control module, and the control module detects the preset object and the reference component on the electro-optical instrument according to the detection of the at least one sensor. Detection of the distance of the distance, controlling the closure of the illumination source Or open, improve the ease of operation of the use of electro-optical instruments, and can greatly save energy and extend the battery working time of the lighting fill system.
