It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the <RTIgt; The present specification and claims do not use the difference in names as a means of distinguishing components, but rather as a basis for distinguishing between functional differences of components. The invention will now be described in detail in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.
图1是本发明第一实施例的投影仪的结构示意图。如图1所示,投影仪100包括视频识别模块11、电流控制器12、激光器13、数字微镜组件14和光吸收体15。1 is a schematic structural view of a projector according to a first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the projector 100 includes a video recognition module 11, a current controller 12, a laser 13, a digital micromirror assembly 14, and a light absorber 15.
视频识别模块11用于接收并解析视频信号以获取视频信号的亮暗状态。具体来说,视频识别模块11接收并解析视频信号以获取视频信号的亮暗状态的操作包括:获取视频信号对应的二进制信号,二进制信号包括“0”和“1”;获取在二进制信号中“0”的数量比例;判断数量比例是否大于预定比例;当数量比例大于预定比例时,则判定视频信号处于第一状态;以及,当数量比例小于等于预定比例时,则判定视频信号处于第二状态。其中,第一状态为暗状态,第二状态为亮状态。The video recognition module 11 is configured to receive and parse the video signal to obtain a light and dark state of the video signal. Specifically, the operation of the video recognition module 11 to receive and parse the video signal to obtain the light and dark state of the video signal includes: acquiring a binary signal corresponding to the video signal, the binary signal includes “0” and “1”; and acquiring in the binary signal “ a quantity ratio of 0"; determining whether the quantity ratio is greater than a predetermined ratio; determining that the video signal is in the first state when the quantity ratio is greater than the predetermined ratio; and determining that the video signal is in the second state when the quantity ratio is less than or equal to the predetermined ratio . The first state is a dark state, and the second state is a bright state.
在本实施例中,视频识别模块11为现场可编程门阵列(FPGA)。 FPGA具有速度快、识别准确的特点,因此采用FPGA进行数字信号也即二进制信号识别,能保证识别的实时性和准确性。在其它实施例中,视频识别模块11也可以为数字信号处理器(DSP)、微控制器(MCU)、微处理器(MPU)等等。In this embodiment, the video recognition module 11 is a field programmable gate array (FPGA). FPGA has the characteristics of fast speed and accurate identification. Therefore, the use of FPGA for digital signal, that is, binary signal recognition, can ensure the real-time and accuracy of recognition. In other embodiments, the video recognition module 11 can also be a digital signal processor (DSP), a microcontroller (MCU), a microprocessor (MPU), and the like.
在本实施例中,预定比例优选为80%。也就是说,当二进制信号中“0”的数量与二进制信号中“0”和“1”的总数量的比值大于80%时,则说明视频信号处于第一状态,反之则说明视频信号处于第二状态。In the present embodiment, the predetermined ratio is preferably 80%. That is to say, when the ratio of the number of "0" in the binary signal to the total number of "0"s and "1"s in the binary signal is greater than 80%, the video signal is in the first state, and the video signal is in the first state. Two states.
举例来说,在二进制信号中,纯黑信号为0x00,纯黑信号中“0”的数量比例为100%,其大于预定比例80%,则说明当视频信号为纯黑信号时,视频信号处于第一状态;纯白信号为0xFF,纯白信号中“0”的数量比例为0,其小于预定比例80%,则说明当视频信号为纯白信号时,视频信号处于第二状态;对于其它二进制信号,则当二进制信号中“0”的数量为7时,则对应该二进制信号的视频信号处于第一状态,以及当信号中“0”的数量为2、3、4、5或6时,则对应该二进制信号的视频信号处于第二状态。For example, in the binary signal, the pure black signal is 0x00, and the ratio of the number of "0" in the pure black signal is 100%, which is greater than the predetermined ratio of 80%, indicating that when the video signal is a pure black signal, the video signal is at The first state; the pure white signal is 0xFF, and the ratio of the number of "0" in the pure white signal is 0, which is less than the predetermined ratio of 80%, indicating that when the video signal is a pure white signal, the video signal is in the second state; Binary signal, when the number of "0" in the binary signal is 7, the video signal corresponding to the binary signal is in the first state, and when the number of "0" in the signal is 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 Then, the video signal corresponding to the binary signal is in the second state.
当然,本领域的技术人员可以理解,上述是以二进制信号为八位二进制数、预定比例为80%为例进行说明的,本发明并不以此为限,二进制信号例如还可以为十六位二进制数,预定比例例如还可以为70%等等。Certainly, those skilled in the art can understand that the above description is based on the case where the binary signal is an eight-bit binary number and the predetermined ratio is 80%. The present invention is not limited thereto, and the binary signal may be, for example, sixteen bits. The binary number, the predetermined ratio may be, for example, 70% or the like.
电流控制器12与视频识别模块11耦接,用于根据视频识别模块11识别出的视频信号的亮暗状态动态调整激光电流。具体来说,电流控制器12根据视频信号的亮暗状态动态调整激光电流的操作包括:当视频信号处于第二状态时,调整激光电流为满电流负荷;以及,当视频信号 处于第一状态时,根据“0”的数量比例调整激光电流为部分电流负荷。优选地,满电流负荷为100%,部分电流负荷为1/(X+20%)^12,X为“0”的数量比例。The current controller 12 is coupled to the video recognition module 11 for dynamically adjusting the laser current according to the light and dark state of the video signal recognized by the video recognition module 11. Specifically, the operation of the current controller 12 to dynamically adjust the laser current according to the light and dark state of the video signal includes: adjusting the laser current to a full current load when the video signal is in the second state; and, when the video signal is in the first state The laser current is adjusted to a partial current load according to the number of "0". Preferably, the full current load is 100%, the partial current load is 1/(X+20%)^12, and X is a quantitative ratio of "0".
承接上述举例,请一并参考图2,图2是本发明中激光电流和视频信号的关系示意图。如图2所示,横轴表示视频信号中“0”的数量比例,纵轴表示激光电流。Taking the above example, please refer to FIG. 2 together. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between laser current and video signal in the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the horizontal axis represents the numerical ratio of "0" in the video signal, and the vertical axis represents the laser current.
当视频信号处于第二状态时,也即“0”的数量比例小于等于80%时,激光电流为满电流负荷也即100%。当视频信号处于第一状态时,也即“0”的数量比例大于80%,激光电流为部分电流负荷,而且随着“0”的数量比例逐渐增加,部分电流负荷逐渐减少。When the video signal is in the second state, that is, the ratio of the number of "0" is less than or equal to 80%, the laser current is a full current load, that is, 100%. When the video signal is in the first state, that is, the number ratio of "0" is greater than 80%, the laser current is a partial current load, and as the ratio of "0" gradually increases, part of the current load gradually decreases.
激光器13与电流控制器12耦接,用于根据电流控制器12输出的激光电流控制待发射激光的激光亮度并发射激光。其中,激光的激光亮度随激光电流变大而变亮,随激光电流变小而变暗。本领域的技术人员可以理解,当激光亮度越亮,则表示发射的激光能量越高,投影仪的发热功耗越大。The laser 13 is coupled to the current controller 12 for controlling the brightness of the laser light to be emitted and emitting the laser light according to the laser current output from the current controller 12. Among them, the laser brightness of the laser becomes brighter as the laser current becomes larger, and becomes darker as the laser current becomes smaller. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the brighter the laser, the higher the laser energy emitted, and the greater the heat dissipation of the projector.
数字微镜组件(DMD)14用于接收并反射激光器13发射的激光。光吸收体15用于吸收数字微镜组件14发射的激光。A digital micromirror assembly (DMD) 14 is used to receive and reflect the laser light emitted by the laser 13. The light absorber 15 is for absorbing the laser light emitted by the digital micromirror assembly 14.
具体来说,数字微镜组件14包括多个镜片,数字微镜组件14根据视频信号的亮暗高速翻转镜片以使镜片处于第一位置或第二位置。当镜片处于第一位置时,镜片把视频暗区的大部分能量反射到光吸收体15以避免用户看到视频暗区的部分,与此同时,镜头(未图示)吸收未被镜片反射的视频暗区的小部分能量。当镜片处于第二位置时,镜片把视 频亮区的大部分能量反射到镜头作为视频图像输出,与此同时,光吸收体15吸收未被镜片反射的视频亮区的小部分能量。In particular, digital micromirror assembly 14 includes a plurality of lenses that are flipped at a high speed in accordance with the brightness of the video signal to bring the lens into a first position or a second position. When the lens is in the first position, the lens reflects most of the energy in the dark portion of the video to the light absorber 15 to prevent the user from seeing portions of the dark area of the video, while the lens (not shown) absorbs the reflection from the lens. A small portion of the energy in the dark area of the video. When the lens is in the second position, the lens reflects most of the energy in the bright region of the video to the lens as a video image output, while the light absorber 15 absorbs a small portion of the energy of the bright region of the video that is not reflected by the lens.
在本实施例中,当视频信号处于第一状态时,以部分电流负荷的激光电流驱动激光器,从而减少激光器13发射激光的亮度也即激光能量,进而使得光吸收体15接收的激光能量减少以降低光吸收体15的温度,从而降低投影仪的发热功率。同时,其还可以解决光吸收体15的极限耐温能力成为阻碍激光亮度提升的瓶颈的问题。而在视频信号处于第二状态时,以满电流负荷的激光电流驱动激光器13,从而保证人眼感知的视频效果不会发生变化。In this embodiment, when the video signal is in the first state, the laser is driven by the laser current of a part of the current load, thereby reducing the brightness of the laser light emitted by the laser 13, that is, the laser energy, thereby reducing the laser energy received by the light absorber 15 to The temperature of the light absorber 15 is lowered, thereby reducing the heat power of the projector. At the same time, it is also possible to solve the problem that the ultimate temperature resistance of the light absorber 15 becomes a bottleneck that hinders the improvement of the laser brightness. When the video signal is in the second state, the laser current is driven by the laser current of the full current load, thereby ensuring that the video effect perceived by the human eye does not change.
也就是说,在本实施例中,通过动态调整激光电流也即动态调整激光的激光亮度,能在人眼感知视频效果不变的情况下,降低发热功耗进而降低投影仪的整机温度。That is to say, in the present embodiment, by dynamically adjusting the laser current, that is, dynamically adjusting the laser brightness of the laser, it is possible to reduce the heat generation power consumption and reduce the overall temperature of the projector while the human eye perceives the video effect.
本实施例是以电流控制器为例来进行说明的,本实施例中利用电流控制器根据视频信号的亮暗状态动态调整激光电流,进而根据激光电流控制待发射激光的激光亮度。在其它实施例中,也可以使用电压控制器、功率控制器代替本实施例中的电流控制器,也就是说,也可以利用电压控制器根据视频信号的亮暗状态动态调整激光电压,进而根据激光电压控制待发射激光的激光亮度;或者也可以利用功率控制器根据视频信号的亮暗状态动态调整激光功率,进而根据激光功率控制待发射激光的激光亮度。This embodiment is described by taking a current controller as an example. In this embodiment, the current controller is used to dynamically adjust the laser current according to the light and dark state of the video signal, and then control the laser brightness of the laser to be emitted according to the laser current. In other embodiments, the voltage controller and the power controller may be used instead of the current controller in the embodiment, that is, the voltage controller may also be used to dynamically adjust the laser voltage according to the brightness state of the video signal, and then The laser voltage controls the laser brightness of the laser to be emitted; or the power controller can also dynamically adjust the laser power according to the brightness state of the video signal, and then control the laser brightness of the laser to be emitted according to the laser power.

It should be noted that the method of the present invention is not limited to the sequence of processes shown in FIG. 6 if substantially the same result is obtained. As shown in FIG. 6, the method includes the following steps:
步骤S101:利用视频识别模块接收并解析视频信号以获取视频信号的亮暗状态。Step S101: Receive and parse the video signal by using the video recognition module to obtain a light and dark state of the video signal.

在步骤S104~步骤S105中,数字微镜组件包括多个镜片,数字微镜组件根据视频信号的亮暗高速翻转镜片以使镜片处于第一位置或第二位置。当镜片处于第一位置时,镜片把视频暗区的大部分能量反射到光吸收体以避免用户看到视频暗区的部分,与此同时,镜头吸收未被镜片反射的视频暗区的小部分能量。当镜片处于第二位置时,镜片把视频亮区的大部分能量反射到镜头作为视频图像输出,与此同时,光吸收体吸收未被镜片反射的视频亮区的小部分能量。In steps S104 to S105, the digital micromirror assembly includes a plurality of lenses, and the digital micromirror assembly flips the lens at a high speed according to the brightness of the video signal to bring the lens into the first position or the second position. When the lens is in the first position, the lens reflects most of the energy in the dark area of the video to the light absorber to avoid the user seeing portions of the dark area of the video, while the lens absorbs a small portion of the dark area of the video that is not reflected by the lens. energy. When the lens is in the second position, the lens reflects most of the energy in the bright portion of the video to the lens as a video image output, while the light absorber absorbs a small portion of the energy of the bright portion of the video that is not reflected by the lens.
在本实施例中,当视频信号处于第一状态时,以部分电流负荷的激光电流驱动激光器以降低激光的激光亮度,从而减少激光器发射激光的能量,进而使得光吸收体接收的激光能量减少以降低光吸收体的温度,从而降低投影仪的整机功耗以及解决光吸收体的极限耐温能力成为阻碍激光亮度提升的瓶颈的问题。而在视频信号处于第二状态时,以满电流负荷的激光电流驱动激光器以保持激光的亮度为正常亮度,从而保证 人眼感知的视频效果不会发生变化。In this embodiment, when the video signal is in the first state, the laser current is driven by a partial current load to reduce the laser brightness of the laser, thereby reducing the energy of the laser to emit laser light, thereby reducing the laser energy received by the light absorber. Reducing the temperature of the light absorber, thereby reducing the overall power consumption of the projector and solving the limit temperature resistance of the light absorber become a bottleneck that hinders the improvement of the laser brightness. When the video signal is in the second state, the laser current is driven by the full current load to maintain the brightness of the laser as normal brightness, thereby ensuring that the video effect perceived by the human eye does not change.
下面将以三个例子对上述基于投影仪的控制方法的技术效果进行评估:The technical effects of the above projector-based control method will be evaluated in three examples:
1、当视频信号处于第二状态时,电流控制器设置激光电流为满电流负荷,激光器输出亮度为100%的激光,经过数字微镜组件反射后,90%的亮度反射到镜头作为视频图像输出,10%的亮度反射到光吸收体,产生热量。此时视频识别模块识别到的视频信号二进制表示“1”占90%,“0”占10%。1. When the video signal is in the second state, the current controller sets the laser current to be a full current load, and the laser outputs a laser with a brightness of 100%. After being reflected by the digital micromirror assembly, 90% of the brightness is reflected to the lens as a video image output. 10% of the brightness is reflected to the light absorber, generating heat. At this time, the video signal recognized by the video recognition module has a binary representation of "1" accounting for 90% and "0" accounting for 10%.
2、当视频信号处于第一状态时,电流控制器设置激光电流为满电流负荷,激光器输出亮度为100%的激光,经过数字微镜组件反射后,10%的亮度作为视频图像输出,90%的亮度反射到光吸收体,产生热量。此时视频识别模块识别到的视频信号二进制表示“0”占90%,“1”占10%。2. When the video signal is in the first state, the current controller sets the laser current to be a full current load, and the laser outputs a laser with a brightness of 100%. After being reflected by the digital micromirror assembly, 10% of the brightness is output as a video image, 90%. The brightness is reflected to the light absorber to generate heat. At this time, the video signal recognized by the video recognition module has a binary representation of "0" accounting for 90% and "1" accounting for 10%.
3、当视频信号处于第一状态时,电流控制器设置激光电流为部分电流负荷,激光器输出亮度为10%的激光,经过数字微镜组件反射后,1%的亮度作为视频图像输出,9%的亮度反射到光吸收体,产生热量。此时视频识别模块识别到的视频信号二进制表示“0”占90%,“1”占10%。3. When the video signal is in the first state, the current controller sets the laser current to be part of the current load, and the laser outputs a laser with a brightness of 10%. After being reflected by the digital micromirror assembly, 1% of the brightness is output as a video image, 9%. The brightness is reflected to the light absorber to generate heat. At this time, the video signal recognized by the video recognition module has a binary representation of "0" accounting for 90% and "1" accounting for 10%.
通过以上三个例子,当视频信号处于第二状态时,激光器满负荷工作,保证视频效果高亮度,当视频信号处于第一状态时,激光器以10%的效率工作,保证发热的无用功降到最低。Through the above three examples, when the video signal is in the second state, the laser works at full load to ensure high brightness of the video effect. When the video signal is in the first state, the laser works at 10% efficiency, ensuring that the useless heat of the heat is minimized. .

不降低激光电流Does not reduce the laser current 10%10% 90%90% 100%100%
通过激光亮度动态调节手段,在视频处于第一状态时:投影仪损失了10%-1%=9%的视频效果,但是光吸收体发热量减小了90%-9%=81%,整机功耗降低100%-10%=90%。Through the laser brightness dynamic adjustment means, when the video is in the first state: the projector loses 10%-1%=9% of the video effect, but the heat absorption of the light absorber is reduced by 90%-9%=81%, The power consumption of the machine is reduced by 100%-10%=90%.
