Abstract

The invention relates to a video auto-focusing system based on an embedded media processor. The system comprises a video collection module, an image acquisition and processing module, a focusing search module and a focusing execution module, wherein the acquisition and processing module is used to perform noise processing to the obtained original video image data and extract Y-component in the data, wherein the induction area selection algorithm based on region segmentation is adopted to extract focus area, the Tenengrad function based on Sobel gradient operator is adopted to calculate definition; the focusing search module is used to determine the moving direction of the camera lens and calculate the required step length (mov_step = step*level) of the lens; the position corresponding to the maximum definition value is used as focus position; and the focusing execution module is used to transmit control signals to a stepping motor used for driving the lens so as to adjust the position of the lens, according to the determined moving direction and step length of the lens in the focusing search module. By using the video auto-focusing system, the focusing accuracy and stability can be effectively increased, and the smoothness is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of video auto-focus, in particular to a video auto-focus system. Background technique [0002] Video auto-focus technology is one of the key technologies of modern machine vision. When people obtain a clear image through a camera, it often takes a long time to focus on the scene. Due to the complexity of the focusing environment, it is difficult to ensure the smoothness of the focus during the focusing process, that is, the changes in the clarity of the image are inconsistent. Therefore, how to realize fast, accurate and smooth video automatic focusing is very important. [0003] At present, video auto-focus technologies for cameras mainly include active focus methods and passive focus methods. Because image-based passive autofocus does not require additional auxiliary devices, it is widely used in digital cameras. Such as publication number is 101034198 (application number is 200710079748.5) Chinese pat...
