Description

[0002] Currently, there are few VR evaluation devices, and there is no ready-made evaluation and testing equipment for VR binocular display modules on the market. During the research and development process, in order to objectively evaluate the indicators of VR headset binocular display modules, it is necessary to use a binocular camera that simulates the human eye, and the optical axis distance of the binocular camera is required to be consistent with the IPD of the VR headset and remain horizontal. However, the optical axis of the camera cannot be seen, so it needs to be determined through auxiliary means.

[0003] my country's patent application number: CN201710517281.1; Publication date: 2017.10.10 discloses a panoramic camera optical axis calibration device, including a box frame, each surface of the box frame is provided with a picture card module and a light source module, the picture card module is arranged on the inner side of the light source module, and the picture card module and the light source module close the box frame; one of the surfaces of the box frame is provided with a passage opening that passes through the interior thereof, the outer side of the box frame is provided with a bottom plate frame, and the bottom plate frame is slidably connected with a propulsion module, the propulsion module is arranged at a position corresponding to the passage opening, and the propulsion module is used to slide the camera into the interior of the box frame. The panoramic camera optical axis calibration device of the present invention fills the invalid area through the fully wrapped environment construction method, improves the calibration accuracy of the panoramic camera optical axis, and ensures the quality of the camera.

[0004] The above case structure has the following deficiencies:

[0005] 1. The bottom frame of the device is provided with a guide rail, and the top rod is slidably connected to the guide rail and can slide along the guide rail to the inside of the box frame. After the camera is fixed on the fixed seat, the driving mechanism can be used to drive the top rod to slide along the guide rail, and then the camera can be slid and sent into the inside of the box frame. The camera itself cannot adjust its position and is greatly limited.

[0006] 2. The first positioning hole of the device is set on the side away from the box frame. As the top rod slides and enters the interior of the box frame, the first positioning hole at the bottom of the top rod will approach the first positioning column. When the camera is sent to a certain position inside the box frame, the first positioning column is plugged into the first positioning hole, and the camera stays at this position and remains motionless to complete the subsequent coordinate reading. The plugging will cause some deviation in the position, and the reading of its coordinates lacks reference comparison.

[0016] An operating method of a binocular camera optical axis calibration device for VR testing comprises the following steps:

[0017] Step 1: Through the adjustment of this device, the optical axes of the primary camera and the secondary camera can be parallel and perpendicular to the surface of the first flat glass, and the distance between the optical axes can be adjusted to a required value.

[0018] By operating the camera adjustment module, the third support frame is fixedly mounted on the first rotation adjustment platform, and the first rotation adjustment platform is operated to adjust the first X-direction angular platform, the first Y-direction angular platform, the first X-direction translation adjustment platform, the first Y-direction translation adjustment platform and the first Z-direction translation adjustment platform respectively and fix them by screws.

[0021] The semiconductor laser is fixed in position by a semiconductor adjusting fixture.

[0022] After the operation is completed, there are two cross lines on the second flat glass with a center distance equal to the IPD of the VR binocular near-eye display module.

[0023] Step 2: Use semiconductor laser to make the camera fixed substrate, the first flat glass and the reflective mirror parallel and perpendicular to the semiconductor laser.

[0024] The semiconductor adjustment fixing frame is adjusted to adjust the position of the laser. The camera fixing substrate and the first flat glass are adjusted by operating the first X-direction angle table, the first Y-direction angle table, the first X-direction translation adjustment table, the first Y-direction translation adjustment table, the first Z-direction translation adjustment table and the first rotation adjustment table of the first adjustment platform. The position of the reflector is adjusted by the third X-direction angle table, the third Y-direction angle table and the third rotation adjustment table of the third adjustment platform, so that the reflected light beam of the laser on the second flat glass on the camera fixing substrate, the first flat glass and the reflector returns to the exit point along the original path.

[0025] The center distance between the two cross lines of the second flat glass is the IPD of the VR binocular near-eye display module.

[0026] The positions of the primary camera and the secondary camera are adjusted by adjusting the first camera adjustment seat and the second camera adjustment seat in the camera adjustment module, so that the midpoint of the cross line on the second glass plate is recorded as LR, and the midpoint of the cross line virtual image in the reflector is recorded as L'R', which coincides with the midpoint of the camera LR image.

[0027] Step 3: Camera optical axis adjustment method.

[0028] A semiconductor laser is used to make the laser beam emit through the pinhole light barrier, and a reflected light beam is generated on the first flat glass, the second flat glass and the reflector surface. The rotation angle and the pitch angle of the reflector are adjusted by the third rotation adjustment table, the third X-direction angular position table and the third Y-direction angular position table, so that the reflector reflects the light beam back to the pinhole light barrier, and the laser beam is perpendicular to the reflector surface.

[0029] Similarly, adjust the second rotary adjustment table, the second X-direction angular table and the second Y-direction angular table to make the laser beam perpendicular to the second flat glass surface, and adjust the first rotary adjustment table, the second X-direction angular table and the second Y-direction angular table to make the laser beam perpendicular to the first flat glass surface.

[0030] Adjust the first camera adjustment seat, the midpoint on the second flat glass is marked as 1, and the midpoint 1' of the image in the reflector coincides with the midpoint 1 of the primary camera image, and the straight line on the flat glass marked as H1H2 also coincides with the primary camera image marked as H11H12.

[0031] Adjust the second camera adjustment seat, the midpoint on the second flat glass is marked as 2, the midpoint 2' of the image in the reflector coincides with the midpoint of the secondary camera image, and the straight line on the flat glass is marked as H1H2 and also coincides with the secondary camera image H21H22.

[0032] The line connecting the midpoints 1' and 2' of the images in the mirrors of the pattern midpoints 1 and 2 on the flat glass is perpendicular to the reflector, so the optical axes of the adjusted cameras 1 and 2 are perpendicular to the reflector, that is, the optical axes of the primary camera and the secondary camera are parallel, and the optical axis distance is the set IPD value. The camera adjustment module adjusted by this method can be used to evaluate the assembly tolerance of the VR binocular display module, the center adjustment of the left and right eye display images, etc.

[0033] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

After the operation is completed, there are two cross lines on the second flat glass with a center distance of the IPD of the VR binocular near-eye display module. Through the adjustment of this device, the optical axes of the primary camera and the secondary camera can be parallel, both perpendicular to the surface of the first flat glass, and the optical axis spacing can be adjusted to the required value.

[0035] 2. Adjust the semiconductor adjustment bracket to adjust the position of the laser. Adjust the camera fixed substrate and the first flat glass by operating the first X-direction angle stage, the first Y-direction angle stage, the first X-direction translation adjustment stage, the first Y-direction translation adjustment stage, the first Z-direction translation adjustment stage and the first rotation adjustment stage of the first adjustment platform. Adjust the position of the reflector by the third X-direction angle stage, the third Y-direction angle stage and the third rotation adjustment stage of the third adjustment platform, so that the reflected light beam of the laser on the second flat glass, the first flat glass and the reflector on the camera fixed substrate returns to the exit point along the original path. The center distance between the two cross lines of the second flat glass is the IPD of the VR binocular near-eye display module. Adjust the positions of the primary camera and the secondary camera by adjusting the first camera adjustment seat and the second camera adjustment seat in the camera adjustment module, so that the midpoint of the cross line on the second glass plate is recorded as LR, and the midpoint of the virtual image of the cross line in the reflector is recorded as L'R', which overlaps with the midpoint of the camera LR image. Through the semiconductor laser, the camera fixed substrate, the first flat glass and the reflector are parallel and perpendicular to the semiconductor laser.

[0036] 3. Adjust the rotation angle and pitch angle of the reflector through the third rotation adjustment table, the third X-direction angle table and the third Y-direction angle table, so that the light beam reflected by the reflector returns to the pinhole light barrier, and the laser beam is perpendicular to the surface of the reflector. Similarly, adjust the second rotation adjustment table, the second X-direction angle table and the second Y-direction angle table, so that the laser beam is perpendicular to the surface of the second flat glass. Adjust the first rotation adjustment table, the second X-direction angle table and the second Y-direction angle table, so that the laser beam is perpendicular to the surface of the first flat glass. Adjust the first camera adjustment seat, the midpoint on the second flat glass is marked as 1, the midpoint 1' of the image in the reflector coincides with the midpoint 1 of the primary camera image, and the straight line marked as H1H2 on the flat glass also coincides with the image of the primary camera marked as H11H12. Adjust the first camera adjustment seat, the midpoint on the second flat glass is marked as 1, the midpoint 1' of the image in the reflector coincides with the midpoint 1 of the primary camera image, and the straight line marked as H1H2 on the flat glass coincides with the image of the primary camera marked as H11H12. The second camera adjustment seat, the midpoint on the second flat glass is marked as 2, the midpoint 2' of the image in the reflector coincides with the midpoint of the secondary camera image, and the straight line on the flat glass is marked as H1H2 and also coincides with the secondary camera image H21H22. The line connecting the midpoints 1 and 2 of the pattern on the flat glass and the midpoints 1 and 2 of the image in the mirror is perpendicular to the reflector. Therefore, the optical axes of the adjusted cameras 1 and 2 are perpendicular to the reflector, that is, the optical axes of the primary camera and the secondary camera are parallel, and the optical axis distance is the set IPD value. The camera adjustment module adjusted by this method can be used to evaluate the assembly tolerance of the VR binocular display module, the center adjustment of the left and right eye display images, etc. A semiconductor laser is used to make the laser beam pass through a small hole light barrier to emit a reflected light beam on the surface of the first flat glass, the second flat glass and the reflector.

It is safe, efficient, accurate and measurable, which greatly improves the efficiency of binocular camera optical axis calibration for VR testing. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
