Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photoelectric detection, and in particular is an LED multi-spectral polarized parallel light source and a light spot detection method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The multi-spectral time-sharing polarization imaging system is a highly integrated, small-aperture polarization imaging remote sensor. In order to evaluate the reliability of the multi-spectral time-sharing polarization imaging system, various environmental simulation tests are required, such as mechanical, thermal, and vacuum tests. A dedicated test light source is used before and after the test to check the performance changes.

[0003] The stability of polarization imaging and response capability of the multi-spectral time-sharing polarization imaging system is the premise for its reliable application after it is launched into orbit with the satellite. The functional requirements for the test light source are:

[0004] 1) The spectrum covers all working spectrums of the corresponding probe;

[0005] 2) Form more than 3 parallel lights of different angles, with the light spots distributed at different positions of the image;

[0006] 3) Easy debugging;

[0007] 4) Good installation positioning repeatability;

[0008] 5) Good radiation energy stability and repeatability;

[0009] 6) Linear polarized light output function;

[0010] 7) Miniaturized design, easy to disassemble and assemble;

[0011] The Chinese invention patent with application number 201410141134.5 discloses an LED multi-point multi-spectrum collimated test light source. The use of several small collimators can realize the test of imaging and radiation response performance changes. The combination of multiple collimators with different wavelengths also meets the requirements of multi-band detection. A full-deflection channel is set in the optical path of the selected collimator to verify the polarization measurement function. This design satisfies the polarization imaging and response capability test functions as much as possible; however, this type of light source has major problems when applied to the multi-spectral time-sharing polarization imaging system:

[0012] (1) In the form of integrating multiple independent LED collimator light tubes, one light tube can only output one beam of parallel light spot, which makes the overall volume of the light source larger and is not suitable for the small-aperture multi-spectral time-sharing polarization imaging system. (2) Independent LED collimator light tubes do not have a focusing function, and the processing errors of actual optical components and structural components make it difficult to ensure that the focal length matches the design value, causing the output light beam to be out of focus, affecting the imaging quality and being unfavorable for subsequent data processing. (3) Another problem with the large number of independent LED collimator light tubes is that the optical debugging workload is large. If there are more than 40 independent LED collimator light tubes, then more than 40 debuggings are required, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and economically costly. (4) The polarizer is selected as a polarizer, and the size must be designed in advance, which limits the flexibility of the structural design. (5) The existing spot centroid detection algorithm requires that there can only be one spot in a window. For the detection of multiple spots, it is necessary to know the approximate position of each spot in advance and divide it into multiple windows. Once the position of the spot changes significantly, it may be detected incorrectly or the window needs to be re-specified. Summary of the invention

[0068] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0069] 1. The aperture of the present invention is provided with a pinhole array, which enables the formation of several spot images with only one collimator, making the overall volume of the light source smaller and meeting the use scenario of a small-caliber probe. In addition, a polarizing film is provided on one side of the aperture, which can be arbitrarily cut according to the required size without limiting the structural design. At the same time, only one collimator is used, which greatly reduces the workload of optical debugging and saves debugging time.

There is no need to predict the number of light spots and their approximate positions in advance to divide the windows. It can flexibly deal with scenes where the positions of light spots change significantly, thereby improving the efficiency of data processing and reducing possible errors.
