步骤130:基于所述目标拍摄画面,确定所述双目摄像组件与所述环绕对象之间的空间距离。
在本实施例中,基于所述目标拍摄画面来确定在获取到所述目标拍摄画面时,所述双目摄像组件与所述环绕对象之间的空间距离。
其中,所述目标拍摄画面包括针对同一拍摄场景的左相机视图和右相机视图,从而,通过对所述左相机视图和所述右相机视图进行立体匹配,即可以获取到所述环绕对象的视差值,进而得到所述双目摄像组件与所述环绕对象之间的空间距离。
步骤140:实时检测所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向。
在本实施例中,所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向是指所述双目摄像组件的中心线所在方向。
在实际应用中,可以实时获取所述无人机当前的飞行方向,并通过角度传感器测量所述双目摄像组件的光轴与所述无人机之间的相对角度,进而结合所述无人机当前的飞行方向和所述双目摄像组件的光轴与所述无人机之间的相对角度来实时确定所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向。
步骤150:根据所述飞行高度、所述空间距离以及实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向,进行自主环绕拍摄。
根据相机成像原理可知,通过调整无人机的双目摄像组件与环绕对象之间的相对空间位置,可以调整环绕对象在双目摄像组件的拍摄画面中的位置和尺寸大小等拍摄效果。从而,无人机在飞行的过程中,只要保持所述飞行高度和所述空间距离不变,即可获得与所述目标拍摄画面一致的拍摄效果。
此外,根据所述飞行高度和所述空间距离,还可以确定所述无人机针对所述环绕对象进行环绕飞行时的环绕半径(即,环绕对象在无人机所在平面的投影点与所述无人机之间的连线)。而根据圆周运动的原理可知,若无人机在水平面上始终沿着与环绕半径相切的方向运动,即可实现环绕飞行。其中,与环绕半径相切的方向即水平面上与所述双目摄像组件的光轴空间垂直的方向。从而,通过实时检测所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向,可以实时调整所述无人机的飞行方向,以实现环绕飞行和拍摄。
有鉴于此,在针对静态的环绕对象进行自主环绕拍摄时,无人机可以将所述飞行高度作为所述无人机的目标飞行高度;将所述空间距离作为所述双目摄像组件与所述环绕对象之间的目标空间距离;在飞行的过程中,维持所述目标飞行高度和所述目标空间距离不变,并根据实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向调整所述无人机的飞行方向,以实现以所述环绕对象为中心的自主环绕拍摄。其中,所述根据实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向调整所述无人机的飞行方向具体可以为:将所述无人机的飞行方向调整为水平面上与所 述光轴方向空间垂直的方向。
进一步地,在一些实施例中,当所述环绕对象处于运动状态时,为了能够始终针对所述环绕对象进行自主环绕拍摄,所述无人机除了进行环绕飞行之外,还需与所述环绕对象同步运动,以使所述环绕对象在待拍摄画面中呈现相对静止的状态。
从而,在该实施例中,在执行步骤150之前,所述方法还可以包括:实时获取所述环绕对象的运动方向。此时,所述维持所述目标飞行高度和所述目标空间距离不变,并根据实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向调整所述无人机的飞行方向具体为:维持所述目标飞行高度和所述目标空间距离不变,并根据实时获取到的所述环绕对象的运动方向和实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向,调整所述无人机的飞行方向。
其中,所述无人机可以通过对比所述双目摄像组件获取到的前后两帧拍摄画面来确定所述环绕对象的运动方向,也可以通过对比所述双目摄像组件在当前时刻获取到的拍摄画面与所述目标拍摄画面来确定所述环绕对象的运动方向。
通过上述技术方案可知,本发明实施例的有益效果在于:本发明实施例提供的自主环绕拍摄方法通过在接收到自主环绕拍摄指令时,通过双目摄像组件获取目标拍摄画面和用户从所述目标拍摄画面中选定的环绕对象;同时,在获取到所述目标拍摄画面时,获取所述无人机的飞行高度以及确定所述双目摄像组件与所述环绕对象之间的空间距离;并且实时检测所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向;进而根据所述飞行高度、所述空间距离以及实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向,进行自主环绕拍摄;一方面能够在无需依赖GPS信号的情况下实现无人机的自主环绕飞行和拍摄,另一方面能够始终获取到与所述“目标拍摄画面”相对应的拍摄效果,保证无人机自主环绕拍摄的质量。
实施例三
图3是本发明实施例提供的另一种自主环绕拍摄方法的流程示意图。该方法与上述实施例二所述的自主环绕拍摄方法相似,其区别在于:在本实施例中,无人机还可以根据用户设定的拍摄模式进行个性化的自主环绕拍摄。
具体地,请参阅图3,所述方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤210:通过双目摄像组件获取目标拍摄画面和用户从所述目标拍摄画面中选定的环绕对象。

步骤230:基于所述目标拍摄画面,确定所述双目摄像组件与所述环绕对象之间的空间距离。

具体地,所述拍摄模式可以包括但不限于:恒定模式、渐变模式以及自定义模式等。所述恒定模式即始终按照所述目标拍摄画面的拍摄效果进行自主环绕拍摄。所述渐变模式即在进行环绕拍摄的过程中逐渐改变所述环绕对象在拍摄画面中的位置和/或大小。所述自定义模式即在进行环绕拍摄的过程中,按照用户的自定义设置调整所述环绕对象在拍摄画面中拍摄效果。
步骤260:结合所述拍摄模式、所述飞行高度、所述空间距离以及实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向,进行自主环绕拍摄。
在本实施例中,除了依据所述飞行高度、所述空间距离以及实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向之外,还结合所述拍摄模式进行自主环绕拍摄。
具体地,若所述拍摄模式为恒定拍摄模式,则,可以直接采用上述实施例二所述的自主环绕拍摄方法。
若所述拍摄模式为渐变模式、自定义模式或者其他模式,则,所述结合所述拍摄模式、所述飞行高度、所述空间距离以及实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向,进行自主环绕拍摄的具体实施方式可以为:将所述飞行高度作为初始飞行高度;将所述空间距离作为所述无人机与所述环绕对象之间的初始空间距离;根据所述拍摄模式、所述初始飞行高度以及所述初始空间距离,确定所述无人机在各个拍摄时间段内的目标飞行高度和所述无人机与所述环绕对象之间的目标空间距离;在各个拍摄时间段内,按照所述目标飞行高度和所述目标空间距离飞行,并根据实时检测到的所述双目摄像组件的光轴方向调整所述无人机的飞行方向,以实现以所述环绕对象为中心的自主环绕拍摄。
其中,需说明的是,上述步骤210至240分别与如图2所示的自主环绕拍摄方法中的步骤110至140具有相同的技术特征,因此,其具体实施方式可以参考上述实施例的步骤110至140中相应的描述,在本实施例中便不再赘述。
通过上述技术方案可知,本发明实施例的有益效果在于:本实施例提供的自主环绕拍摄方法,通过进一步结合用户选定的拍摄模式进行自主环绕拍摄,能够实现面向“拍摄效果”的个性化自主环绕拍摄,为自主环绕拍摄提供更多趣味性体验。
