Problems solved by technology

Since the difference in the field of view angles of the two camera units in the dual-camera system is not considered, if there is a target object with a texture different from the common field of view in the unique field of view of the two camera units, it will lead to a deviation in the contrast statistics , and finally the difference in focus points, resulting in a large deviation in the definition of the dual-camera public field of view, making it impossible to perform image-based matching
In addition, because the difference between the left and right of the dual camera module is not taken into account, even if the same parameters are used, completely different sharpness and focus positions can be obtained without correction.

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method and device for calibrating automatic focusing parameter based on a dual-camera system. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring a first image and a second image of a target object based on a first camera and a second camera respectively; acquiring a public field of view of the first camera and the second camera, and respectively counting a first contrast and a second contrast of a pixel area located in the public field of view in the first image and the second image; and adjusting motor positions at a preset focus point, and determining the motor positions of the first camera and the second camera corresponding to the preset focus point according to the first contrast and the second contrast. According to the technical scheme of the embodiment of the invention, by respectively counting the first contrast and the second contrast of the pixel area located in the public field of view in the first image and the second image, and using the common statistics of a dual-camera system image to control dual-camera focusing cooperatively, the definition consistency of the dual-camera system can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of electronic equipment, and in particular to an autofocus method and device based on a dual camera system. Background technique [0002] Due to the powerful functions it brings, such as background blur, post-focus, optical zoom, and dark state enhancement, the dual-camera system (hereinafter referred to as "dual-cam") has gradually become the standard configuration of smartphones. [0003] The matching algorithm is the main factor affecting the accuracy and effect of the dual-camera algorithm. The matching algorithm is a search algorithm based on the grayscale, color, and sharpness of the image. The matching algorithm will perform dual-camera view matching based on the above three dimensions of image evaluation. Only when the matching algorithm is used to accurately find out the corresponding relationship between the pixels between the two images, can the cross information of the two ...
