Embodiment 1

[0057] Embodiment 1 of the present invention discloses an image acquisition method based on the dynamic zoom characteristic of a liquid crystal lens, the image acquisition method adopts such as figure 1 and figure 2 The image acquisition device shown is used for acquisition. The image acquisition device includes a liquid crystal lens, a glass lens, and an image sensor from left to right. Face to face contact. The liquid crystal lens is located at the diaphragm position of the image acquisition device, and the focal length of the glass lens is 8mm.

[0058] The structure of the liquid crystal lens is as Figure 4 As shown, it includes a third substrate, a first ITO electrode, an ultraviolet glue, a Cr electrode, a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer, and a second ITO arranged in sequence along the light transmission direction of the lens (the light transmission direction is a direction perpendicular to the liquid crystal layer). electrodes and a first substrate. In ad...

Embodiment 2

[0077] Embodiment 2 of the present invention discloses an extended depth of field image imaging method based on the dynamic zoom characteristic of a liquid crystal lens. The imaging method includes two steps, the first step is image acquisition, and the second step is image fusion.

[0078] The first step image acquisition method of embodiment 2 is the same as the acquisition method in embodiment 1, the voltage V1 and V2 are adjusted to change the characteristics of the liquid crystal lens from the positive lens to the negative lens, and zoom from the beginning of the liquid crystal lens to the beginning of zooming of the liquid crystal lens In the last 4 seconds, the image sensor is controlled to collect an image every 1 / 15 second, and a total of 60 images are collected.

[0079] The mode of the second step image fusion of embodiment 2 is: carry out wavelet decomposition of N layers to all the images collected by the image sensor, obtain its high-frequency sub-image and low-fr...

Embodiment 3

[0082] Embodiment 3 of the present invention discloses a stereoscopic imaging method based on the dynamic zoom characteristics of liquid crystal lenses, which combines the image acquisition method in Embodiment 1 with the stereoscopic imaging method disclosed in the existing invention patent (publication number CN106454318A). The stereoscopic imaging method in 3 includes four steps, the first step is image acquisition, the second step is to collect the scene depth distribution map of the scene to be photographed, and the third step is to collect the parallax offset of the scene according to the scene depth distribution map The fourth step is to control the variable focus lens unit to focus on the region of interest of the scene according to the scene depth distribution map, and generate the first image of the stereoscopic image after image processing. The image acquisition method of the first step in embodiment 3 is the same as the acquisition method in embodiment 1.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of optical imaging, solves the problem of low image acquisition efficiency in the extended depth of field technology, and provides an image acquisition method and device, and an extended depth of field image imaging method and device. The image acquisition method includes the following steps: the liquid crystal lens receives a first driving voltage; the first driving voltage received by the liquid crystal lens is switched to a second driving voltage; in response to switching from the first driving voltage to the second driving voltage, the liquid crystal lens zooms continuously ; Collect a series of images of different focus objects in the same scene during the zooming process of the liquid crystal lens. The present invention discovers the dynamic zoom characteristic of the liquid crystal lens. During the acquisition process, the liquid crystal lenses are respectively in the lens state and the imaging aberration is less than 0.1. Using this characteristic for dynamic image acquisition overcomes the technical prejudice that the liquid crystal lens cannot dynamically and continuously zoom. The invention does not need to wait for the liquid crystal lens to complete zooming to collect images, thereby improving the collection efficiency.
