For allow above and other objects of the present invention, feature and advantage can be more obvious, hereinafter will cooperate accompanying drawing to elaborate.In explanation of the present invention, identical member illustrates first at this with identical symbolic representation.
Shown in Fig. 2 A and 2B, Fig. 2 A illustrates the schematic diagram of the displacement detector of embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 2 B illustrates the block scheme of the displacement detector of embodiment of the present invention, though wherein displacement detector 10 is depicted as optical mouse, the present invention is not limited to this; For example displacement detector 10 also can be optics finger navigation.
Described displacement detector 10 comprises light source 101, light source control unit 102, imageing sensor 103, mnemon 104, processing unit 105 and transmission interface unit 106; In other embodiment, described displacement detector 10 also can comprise optical element 107, this optical element 107 is used for adjusting the illumination zone of described light source 101, and optical element 108, and this optical element 108 is used for adjusting the light receiving efficiency of described imageing sensor 103.
Described imageing sensor 103 for example can be that ccd image sensor, cmos image sensor or other are used for obtaining the sensing device of image document, and it obtains picture frame with fixing sampling frequency.
Described light source 101 for example can be light emitting diode or laser diode, send infrared light or invisible light with at least one velocity mode, required light when being used for providing described imageing sensor 103 to obtain picture frame for example is the perforate H illumination work surface S on the bottom surface of the housing 100 by described displacement detector 10 herein.In addition, when described displacement detector 10 was optics finger navigation, 101 of described light sources were used for the illumination finger surface.
Described light source control unit 102 is used for controlling described light source 101 and lights with at least one glow frequency with different velocity modes or extinguish continuously; For example the described light source 101 of control is luminous corresponding to the sampling frequency of (can be synchronous or asynchronous) described imageing sensor 103 under chosen velocity mode, with after opening picture frame corresponding to N and lighting continuously, then opening picture frame corresponding to M extinguishes continuously, so repeatable operation is to save the power consumption of light source 101 during opening picture frame at described M, and wherein the per second of described light source 101 is lighted number of times and is preferably designed for identical (after being specified in) under the friction speed pattern.
Described mnemon 104 couples described processing unit 105, is used for storing displacement (speed) threshold value, quality threshold value and other systematic parameter.
Described processing unit 105 for example can come displacement calculating amount or translational speed according to the correlativity (correlation) between two images, and compare present displacement and described displacement threshold value (or at present translational speed and described threshold speed), and control by 102 pairs of described light sources 101 of described light source control unit according to comparative result, to carry out the switching of friction speed pattern; Wherein, described processing unit 105 is so long as can process the processor of image document and get final product, and for example digital signal processor (DSP) there is no specific limited.In the embodiment of the present invention, the picture frame displacement calculating amount that described processing unit 105 obtains when lighting according to described light source 101 is used as described light source 101 and estimates displacement during extinguishing.For example in a kind of embodiment, described processing unit 105 can be opened picture frame displacement calculating amount or average displacement amount according to described N, to open the displacement of estimating during the picture frame as described M, so just need to be during M open picture frame the displacement calculating amount; That is the picture frame that obtains during described light source 101 extinguishes can be given up.Described processing unit 105 can also carry out according to described displacement the switching of described velocity mode.In addition, described processing unit 105 can also determine the numerical value of N, for example calculates the image quality that described N opens picture frame, increases the numerical value of N when described image quality is lower than the quality threshold value; That is, when image quality is not good, preferably obtain continuously more effective image frame to avoid obtaining the wrong threshold value of estimating; Wherein, the definition of described image quality has been known, therefore repeat no more in this.In addition, described processing unit 105 can also have larger N value at low-speed mode than fast mode by the described light source 101 of described light source control unit 102 controls.
Described transmission interface unit 106 with report rate (report rate) with action message (for example, displacement, average displacement amount or translational speed) and (for example estimate action message, estimate displacement, estimate the average displacement amount or estimate translational speed) output to external electronic wired or wirelessly, computer system or comprise the electronic system of display unit for example is to carry out corresponding control; Wherein, described transmission interface unit 106 for example can be wired or wireless transport interface, and its report rate for example is 125/second or 120/second, but the present invention is not limited to this.
At first, the friction speed pattern of described light source 101 is described in the displacement detector 10 of the present invention.For example with reference to shown in Fig. 3 A, it illustrates in the embodiment of the present invention, the schematic diagram of three kinds of velocity modes of the Image Acquisition of described imageing sensor 103 and described light source 101, and wherein every kind of velocity mode is all to there being glow frequency.For example in the present embodiment, suppose the light period of the light period of image sampling cycle=1/3000 second, fast mode=1/3000 second, middle fast mode=1/1500 second, the light period of low-speed mode=1/1000 second; Wherein said light period is the integral multiple in described image sampling cycle and forms synchronously, that is during the Image Acquisition of described imageing sensor 103, described light source 101 provides light required when obtaining picture frame.By this, although described imageing sensor 103 obtains image with the fixing image sampling cycle, all do not light when obtaining but the control that is subject to described light source control unit 102 owing to described light source 101 is relatively each picture frame, therefore the effective image that obtains of described imageing sensor 13 light period that is subject to described light source 101 is controlled; Wherein, described effective image for example is that solid arrow among the figure (expression light source luminescent) is represented, and that dotted arrow does not represent light source is luminous and so that imageing sensor 103 can't get access to effective image (being invalid image).105 effective images that obtain based on described imageing sensor 103 of described processing unit carry out the calculating of displacement and translational speed.Scrutable is that the numerical value of disclosed image sampling cycle (sampling frequency), light period (glow frequency) only is exemplary among Fig. 3 A, is not for limiting the present invention.
Shown in Fig. 3 A and 3B, but maximum displacement and the maximum detection speed that described processing unit 105 can detect is described then between two effective images.In a kind of embodiment, two effective images are obtained in lighting of the relatively described light source 101 of described imageing sensor 103, for example the first image 20 and the second image 30.Described processing unit 105 is selected reference search frames 21 at described the first image 20, and in described the second image 30 selected search boxes 31.Described processing unit 105 then calculates the present displacement of distance to detect as described displacement detector 10 of 31 of described reference search frame 21 and described search boxes.For the purpose of simplifying the description, only consider X-direction displacement (i.e. horizontal direction among the figure) among Fig. 3 B, described displacement can comprise X-direction component and Y direction component during practical operation.The maximum displacement that can detect is to be positioned at the leftmost side of described the first image 20 and situation that described search box 31 is positioned at described the second image 30 rightmost sides according to described reference search frame 21 to calculate and obtain.In this embodiment, suppose that every picture frame (being the sensor array size of imageing sensor) has 16 * 16 pixels, described search box 31 and described reference search frame 21 are assumed to be 8 * 8 pixels, and then can to detect displacement be 8 pixel distances (being that maximum can detect number of pixels) to the maximum of described processing unit 105 between continuous two effective images.Because described maximum can detect displacement and be determined by the size of every frame, thereby not affected by the glow frequency of described light source 101, that is described maximum can to detect displacement all identical under the various velocity modes of described light source 101.
Hence one can see that, and when the displacement of described displacement detector 10 between continuous two effective images surpassed 8 pixel distances, described light source 101 must shorten light period, and described like this processing unit 105 can detect displacement; In other words, when the displacement of described displacement detector 10 can detect displacement above described maximum, described processing unit 105 can't calculate described displacement, thereby must shorten the light period of light source 101 so that 10 normal runnings of described displacement detector.Therefore, described processing unit 105 can enter the friction speed pattern according to the described light source 101 of the displacement that calculates (for example aforementioned displacements amount) control, for example fast mode, middle fast mode or low-speed mode.Scrutable is that this explanation is enumerated all setting values and only is one embodiment of the present invention, is not for limiting the present invention.
Yet, but the maximum detection speed under the friction speed pattern is not identical.For example, suppose that each Pixel Dimensions is 40 * 40 microns, but then the maximum detection speed=maximum under every kind of pattern can detect number of pixels * each Pixel Dimensions * frame per second.Therefore, but the maximum detection speed of fast mode=8 * 40 * 3000=37.8 inch per second (IPS); In like manner, but the maximum detection speed of middling speed and low-speed mode shown in Fig. 3 C, wherein effectively frame per second is the inverse of the light period of described light source 101.
In order further to reduce the power consumption of the light source 101 of displacement detector 10, the present invention so make fast mode and middle fast mode in the per second of light source light number of times and be equal to low-speed mode, therefore described light source 101 can minimum per second be lighted number of times and is lighted, with effective reduction power consumption.
Shown in Fig. 4 A, it illustrates the Image Acquisition of displacement detector 10 of embodiment of the present invention and the schematic diagram of light source igniting.At first determine the velocity mode of described light source 101, described imageing sensor 103 obtains picture frame with fixing sampling frequency (for example per second is 3000), and 101 of described light sources are synchronized with described sampling frequency and light continuously.The picture frame displacement calculating amount that described processing unit 105 obtains according to described imageing sensor 103, and determine velocity mode according to the comparative result of described displacement and at least one displacement threshold value, for example at a high speed, middling speed or low-speed mode.Then, described processing unit 105 notifies described light source control unit 102 luminous with different illumination modes with the described light source 101 of described speed-mode control, for example open corresponding to N that picture frame is lighted is continuously opened effective image so that described imageing sensor 103 obtains N continuously during described N opens picture frame, then control described light source 101 and open picture frame corresponding to M and extinguish continuously, thereby described imageing sensor 103 can't obtain effective image during described M opens picture frame.For example among Fig. 4 A, I 1The effective image of picture frame, I are opened in expression corresponding to N 2The invalid image of picture frame is opened in expression corresponding to M; For example among Fig. 4 A, after light source described in the fast mode 101 is lighted 4 continuously, follow continuous 8 and do not light; After light source 101 is lighted 8 continuously described in the middle fast mode, follow continuous 4 and do not light; 101 of light sources described in the low-speed mode are kept fixedly glow frequency and are lighted.Scrutable is that the number of lighting (N) and extinguishing (M) of light source 101 described in Fig. 4 A is not for limiting the present invention only for exemplary.
Described processing unit 105 is for example opened picture frame displacement calculating amount or average displacement amount according to described N according to effective image displacement calculating amount, and described displacement is opened the displacement of estimating during the picture frame as described M.Preferably, the number of described N is more than or equal to 4, so that described processing unit 105 can correctly be estimated the described estimation displacement during M opens picture frame.In a kind of embodiment, the numerical value of N is greater than the numerical value of N under the fast mode, to increase system stability under the low-speed mode.In addition, because M opens the restriction that length during the picture frame is subject to the report rate of described transmission interface unit 106, therefore preferably be lower than 8 milliseconds (when the report rate is 125 times/second) during described M opens picture frame, perhaps (M+N) frame per second (frame per second described herein refers to described light source 101 normal two inverses of lighting continuously the time interval under the velocity mode) of preferably being lower than described light source 101 and the described report rate merchant of gained of being divided by is to avoid correctly calculating described displacement; For example working as the report rate is 125 times/second, and (M+N) preferably is lower than 25 under the fast mode, and (M+N) preferably is lower than 13 under the middle fast mode, and wherein said numerical value only is exemplary.
