The projection image display method can be implemented by the central controller 103 running or executing the software program and / or operating system stored in the storage module 104, or by the image processor 101 executing corresponding instructions. Figure 3 As shown, the projection image display method includes the following contents:
[0062] S1001. Obtain the projection distance between the projection device and the projection surface.
[0063] Projection equipment is usually equipped with a distance sensor, which can be used to obtain the projection distance between the projection equipment and the projection surface. Figure 4 , the projection device P1 displays the image to the projection object such as the screen and the wall through the projection lens, forming a projection surface A1B1C1D1, where A1B1 and C1D1 are the long sides of the projection surface, and B1C1 and A1D1 are the wide sides of the projection surface. When the projection device P1 is a front projection, the projection distance between the projection device and the projection surface can be obtained based on TOF (Time of flight), and the data obtained by TOF is the projection distance d.
[0064] S1002. Determine a maximum reference brightness value according to the projection distance, such that the maximum reference brightness value is inversely proportional to the projection distance.
[0065] In the embodiment of the present invention, the maximum reference brightness value changes accordingly with a change in the projection distance. Specifically, the maximum reference brightness value decreases accordingly with a longer projection distance, and increases accordingly with a shorter projection distance, such as Nmax=f(1 / D), where Nmax represents the maximum reference brightness value, f(x) represents the operation function, and D represents the projection distance.
[0066] S1003: Map the high dynamic range image to be displayed into an image displayable by the projection device according to the maximum reference brightness value.
[0067] When HDR technology is applied to a projection device, it is usually necessary to map the HDR original image into an image that can be displayed by the projection device through a tone mapping algorithm. The embodiment of the present invention dynamically changes the maximum reference brightness value of the tone mapping algorithm based on the projection distance, thereby avoiding the problem of poor image display caused by the incompatibility of the existing manually selected maximum reference brightness value or the change of the projection distance while the maximum reference brightness value remains unchanged.
[0068] When performing tone mapping, it is necessary to determine the maximum mapping threshold NMapmax and the minimum mapping threshold NMapmin. According to NMapmax, NMapmin and the brightness mapping algorithm, the HDR original image is mapped to an image that can be displayed by the projection device. The specific tone mapping algorithm can refer to the relevant prior art, and the embodiment of the present invention will not be introduced in detail. The following only exemplarily introduces the method for determining the maximum mapping threshold NMapmax and the minimum mapping threshold NMapmin.
[0069] Method 1:
[0070] 1.1) The projection device has i fixed brightness levels preset inside, corresponding to brightness values N1, ..., Ni respectively; compare Nmax with (N1, ..., Ni), select the brightness level closest to Nmax and with a brightness value greater than Nmax, assuming it is level j, then the corresponding brightness value is Nj, and Nj is used as the maximum mapping threshold value NMapmax. When mapping, consider maximizing the hardware capabilities of the projection device, and the maximum reference brightness value changes accordingly.
[0071] In some embodiments, each brightness level may correspond to a brightness range. In this case, the maximum brightness value in the brightness range corresponding to the j-level target level may be selected as the mapping maximum threshold value NMapmax, or the median value (the average of the minimum brightness value and the maximum brightness value) in the brightness range corresponding to the j-level target level may be selected as the mapping maximum threshold value NMapmax. The embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.
[0072] 1.2) A fixed value is used as the minimum mapping threshold NMapmin, for example, NMapmin is set to a constant 0.1; or NMapmin is calculated according to the contrast c of the projection device and the maximum reference brightness value Nmax, so that the minimum mapping threshold is proportional to the maximum reference brightness value and inversely proportional to the contrast of the projection device, such as NMapmin=Nmax / c.
[0073] Method 2:
[0074] 2.1) The maximum reference brightness value Nmax is used as the mapping maximum threshold value NMapmax.
[0075] 2.2) A fixed value is used as the minimum mapping threshold NMapmin, for example, NMapmin is set to a constant 0.1; or NMapmin is calculated according to the contrast c of the projection device and the maximum reference brightness value Nmax, so that the minimum mapping threshold is proportional to the maximum reference brightness value and inversely proportional to the contrast of the projection device, such as NMapmin=Nmax / c.
[0076] In some embodiments, the mapping minimum threshold NMapmin may be determined according to the detected ambient light brightness Nc, so that the mapping minimum threshold is proportional to the detected ambient light brightness Nc, and the detail brightness is dynamically adjusted when the ambient light becomes darker. An example is as follows:
[0077] A minimum reference brightness value Rn is set. Rn may be a fixed value, such as 0.1, or may be determined according to a maximum reference brightness value Nmax and a contrast ratio c of the projection device, such as Rn=Nmax / c.
[0078] When Nc is greater than Nd, the mapping minimum threshold NMapmin=Rn*k, where k is a real number greater than 1 and is proportional to Nc, such as NMapmin=Rn*(1+ln(Nc-Nd+1)), where Nd is the ambient brightness of the darkroom;
[0079] When Nc is less than or equal to Nd, the mapping minimum threshold NMapmin=Rn.
[0080] In some embodiments, when tone mapping is performed, in addition to considering the projection distance, the lumen value of the projection device, the aspect ratio of the projection surface, and the projection ratio may also be considered to further improve the image display effect. Figure 5 As shown, the projection image display method includes the following contents:
[0081] S2001. Obtain the projection distance between the projection device and the projection surface.
[0082] S2002, obtaining the lumen value, projection surface aspect ratio and projection ratio of the projection device, wherein projection ratio=projection surface width / projection distance.
[0083] S2003, determining a maximum reference brightness value according to the projection distance, the lumen value of the projection device, the aspect ratio of the projection surface, and the projection ratio, such that the maximum reference brightness value is proportional to the lumen value of the projection device and / or the aspect ratio of the projection surface, and inversely proportional to the projection distance and / or the projection ratio. The specific calculation formula may be: Nmax = (FL / (MR 2 D 2 )), where F represents the aspect ratio of the projection surface, L represents the lumen value of the projection device, M represents the number of brightness samples of the projection surface, R represents the projection ratio, and D represents the projection distance.
[0084] S2004: Map the high dynamic range image to be displayed into an image displayable by the projection device according to the maximum reference brightness value.
[0085] Steps S2001 and S2004 may refer to the above-mentioned steps S1001 and S1003, which will not be described in detail here.
