Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of 3D imaging technology, and in particular to a projector and a surface structured light system. Background Art

[0002] With the development of virtual reality technology, 3D printing technology, and unmanned flight / driving technology, the industry has developed a large number of 3D imaging technologies, and the surface structured light system composed of a camera and a projector is one of them.

[0003] When measuring an object using a surface structured light system, a projector is used to project phase-shifted sinusoidal stripes onto the surface of the object being measured. The camera collects a 2D stripe image on the object being measured. The corresponding image coordinates are obtained based on the relationship between the image coordinates and phase of the stripes captured by the camera. The world coordinates of the object being measured are calculated based on the corresponding projector image coordinates, thereby completing the three-dimensional reconstruction of the object being measured. At present, the phase shift algorithm is one of the most widely used and stable methods for calculating absolute phase in industry. However, since trigonometric functions are used when calculating the phase, phase wrapping (or truncation) will occur, such as Figure 1 In order to restore the continuous phase, the wrapped phase must be unfolded, that is, phase unwrapping, as shown in Figure 2 Phase unwrapping is an integration process, which reconstructs the continuous phase distribution by comparing the truncated phase values ​​(between -π and +π) of two adjacent pixels and adding (or subtracting) integer multiples of 2π.

[0004] The projector needs to project an energy gradient image (encoded image) onto the object to be measured. As one of the current mainstream projection technologies, the core component of the projector using the digital light processor (DLP) is the digital micromirror device (DMD), or DMD chip. The DMD chip is a matrix composed of multiple micromirror units, each of which is equivalent to a small mirror. There are gaps (gaps) between adjacent mirrors in the DMD chip. The gaps cannot reflect light, forming corresponding dark areas in the projected pattern, resulting in unnecessary discontinuities in the depth information, which will cause errors in the phase wrapping solution, and have a great impact on the overall image algorithm. It may lead to poor correspondence between the three-dimensional reconstructed image and the object to be measured, that is, the measurement accuracy of the surface structured light system is reduced; or the algorithm can specifically identify or eliminate the depth discontinuity caused by the gap, but in this case the algorithm will be very complicated, which will correspondingly lead to an increase in system hardware costs or system overhead.

The surface structured light system 100 of this embodiment includes a camera 1 and a projector, wherein the projector is used to project a coded image onto the object O to be measured. In one example, the coded image can be a black and white vertical stripe pattern. The camera 1 is used to capture the coded image of the surface of the object O to be measured.

For example, the projection lens 10 also includes an aperture located between the second lens 12 and the third lens 13 (corresponding to the plane numbered 5 in Table 1), and the thickness of the aperture is 0.5 mm. The projection lens 10 can further include a glass plate 20, which is located on the side of the image side of the sixth lens 16, and the thickness of the glass plate 20 can be selected to be 0.65 mm. The distance between the first lens 11 and the object plane (numbered 0 in Table 1) is 128 mm; the distance between the second lens 12 and the first lens 11 is about 18.67 mm, the distance between the second lens 12 and the aperture is about 1.1 mm, the aperture is close to the third lens 13, the distance between the fourth lens 14 and the fifth lens 15 is about 6.64 mm, the distance between the fifth lens 15 and the sixth lens 16 is about 4.29 mm, and the distance between the sixth lens 16 and the glass plate 20 is about 1 mm. The aperture sizes of the lenses or elements included in the projection lens 10 can be found in the “semi-aperture” column of Table 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0042] Through the parameter design of the projection lens 10 of the embodiment of Table 1, the Dessel aberration coefficients shown in Table 2 can be obtained. In Table 2, SPHA, COMA, ASTI, and FCUR represent spherical aberration, coma, astigmatism, and field curvature, respectively.

[0043] Table 2

[0044]

[0045]

[0046] In this embodiment, the projection lens 10 is optically designed to have a certain spherical aberration. The existence of the spherical aberration blurs and eliminates the discontinuity of image depth information in the projected image caused by the gap between the micromirror units. At the same time, the image information reflected by the micromirror unit itself can be clearly projected.

[0047] Please see Figure 8 to Figure 10 , respectively, are the point diagram, MTF diagram and distortion curve diagram obtained by the projection lens of the aforementioned embodiment of the present application according to the parameters of Table 1 and Table 2. Among them, the first figure in the upper left corner of the point diagram is a diffuse image formed by imaging a point light source in the central field of view (with the image field position as the center). Although only black is represented in the figure, those skilled in the art can know that the figure is a comprehensive point diagram of multi-wavelength light, such as three-color light imaging. In addition to the first figure in the upper left corner above, the other figures represent imaging situations in different fields of view or different positions of the image field. Fig. 9 It can be seen from the MTF curve shown that when the OTF value (Optical Transfer Function) is about 0.03, the resolution of the projection lens 10 is R=1 / (2*pixel pitch)=1 / (2*0.0076mm)=about 65 line pairs / mm (lp / mm), that is, the maximum resolution of the projection lens 10 is 65 line pairs / mm, and the single pixel represented by the micromirror units 70 and 80 of the size represented by the pixel pitch can be resolved, so that the image reflected by each micromirror unit 70 and 80 can be clearly projected, while the gaps between the micromirror units smaller than the pixel pitch cannot be clearly resolved, and the corresponding fine black lines originally caused by the gaps in the projected image are blurred or replaced by gradient grayscale, so that the depth information implied in the projected image is reduced. The abnormal discontinuity, please refer to Fig.11 ,in Fig.11 The left picture, Fig.11 (a) shows a real shot of a fringe pattern projected by a projection lens in the prior art, and the right side shows Fig.11 (b) is a real picture showing the stripe pattern projected by the projector of the embodiment of the present application. It can be seen from the left picture that there are some fine black lines in the large white stripe area. These black lines are caused by the DMD gap (that is, the micromirror unit gap), while in the right picture, it can be clearly seen that the black lines in the large white stripe area have been eliminated. Fig.10 The field curvature and distortion curves of the projection lens 10 of the projector of the present application are shown.

[0048] The surface structured light system 100 of the embodiment of the present invention designs the specific spherical aberration of the projection lens 10 so that the maximum resolution of the projection lens 10 is equal to the pixel pitch of the micromirror unit, so that the image formed by the reflected light of the micromirror unit with the pixel pitch size can be clearly projected through the projection lens, while the gap between the micromirror units smaller than the pixel pitch cannot be clearly projected, so that the depth information discontinuity caused by the gap between the micromirror units can be eliminated in the projected image, so as to more accurately reflect the depth information of the object being measured, which is beneficial to the accuracy of three-dimensional reconstruction, and does not require complex algorithms to identify the depth discontinuity caused by the gap, thereby reducing system overhead and reducing the overall cost of the system.
