[0002] With the development of modern warfare, the position of the optoelectronic sighting device is becoming more and more important, and the optoelectronic sighting device has many advantages over the traditional white light sighting device. The aiming accuracy of the optoelectronic sighting device is of great significance to achieve long-distance and high-precision strikes, and the aiming accuracy of the optoelectronic sighting device is related to a good gun calibration method.
[0003] Before use, the firearm needs to be calibrated to make the line of sight of the sighting scope consistent with the line of fire, and the traditional sighting scope generally uses live ammunition to calibrate the firearm, which not only consumes ammunition but also requires a suitable site. In actual use, some external forces that occur during the carrying process of the weapon equipment can also cause the posture of the sighting scope to change, thereby affecting the hit rate of the firearm, and therefore a rapid, intelligent and accurate firearm calibration method is needed. SUMMARY

[0039] The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0040] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment of a rapid gun-calibrating system based on an optoelectronic intelligent sight includes a gun-calibrating scope 21 mounted on the barrel of a firearm 18, and a gun-calibrating correction method based on an optoelectronic intelligent sight 17 on the firearm 18.
[0041] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the aiming scope 21 includes a mounting shaft 2, a scope barrel 3, an optoelectronic unit, a bracket 5, and a power supply unit. The scope barrel 3 is mounted on the upper part of the bracket 5, and the optoelectronic unit is installed inside the scope barrel 3. The optoelectronic unit includes a lens 7, a reticle 9, a ground glass 10, and a light source 12. The lens 7 is mounted at the front end of the scope barrel 3, and a pressure ring 6 is installed between the lens 7 and the scope barrel 3. The reticle 9 is mounted at the focal length of the scope barrel 3, and a pressure ring 8 is installed between the lens 7 and the reticle 9. The ground glass 10 is mounted at the rear of the reticle 9, and the light source... The light source 12 is mounted on the rear of the frosted glass 10 through the lamp holder 13 at a suitable distance. A pressure ring 3 11 is installed between the frosted glass 10 and the light source 12. A switch 4 is installed at the rear end of the lens barrel 3, and the switch 4 controls the internal light source 12. The diameter of the crosshair 9 is 16mm, the thickness of the frosted glass 10 is 6mm, and the power of the light source 12 is 0.5W. The thickness of the frosted glass 10 needs to be matched with the intensity of the light source 12 to adjust the light intensity so that the smart sight 17 can recognize the crosshair image under any background.
[0042] The lower part of the bracket 5 is provided with a battery compartment 19, and a power supply unit is installed in the battery compartment 19. The power supply unit includes a battery module 14, which is powered by a single 18650 battery. The battery module 14 is located inside the battery compartment 19 and is sealed by a pressure ring 15, a plug 16 and a rear cover. The bracket is used for wiring to facilitate sealing and the structure is simpler.
[0043] The insertion shaft 2 is installed on one side of the bracket 5. A spring piece 1 is provided in the middle of the insertion shaft 2, and a sealing groove 20 is provided at the end of the insertion shaft 2. An O-ring is installed in the sealing groove 20 to seal the battery compartment 19.
[0044] The set spring sheet 1 facilitates the insertion of the insertion shaft 2 into the barrel of the firearm 18. According to the optical principle, when the insertion shaft 2 of the boresight 21 rotates in the barrel, the parallel light emitted by the boresight 21 is parallel to the insertion shaft 2, at this time, the accuracy of the gun is higher, the angle of the incident light in the lens of the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 does not change, and therefore the position of the crosshair image in the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 does not change. When the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 and the boresight 21 have an angle in the axial direction, which leads to a change in the incident angle, the position of the crosshair image in the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 will be offset, and according to the offset distance, the angle that needs to be corrected for the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 can be calculated, thereby completing the calibration of the sight.
[0045] The specific operation steps for calculating the angle value that needs to be corrected for the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 are as follows:
[0046] I. The CCD is used to collect the crosshair image of the boresight 21 inside the photoelectric intelligent sight 17, and the collected crosshair image is subjected to edge extraction through Canny operator edge detection to obtain a single-pixel contour without discontinuities. Then the coordinates and gray values of the contour are extracted to obtain the center position of the crosshair image as shown in Figure 4
[0047] II. The center position region of the crosshair image obtained in step I is shown in Figure 5 To prevent the straight line noise in the environmental information from affecting the subsequent straight line fitting to obtain the center of the crosshair image, the background noise is removed through circle fitting. The method for removing the background noise is to obtain the fitting circle diameter and the circle center coordinates through Hough circle detection, and to suppress the gray values of the pixel points with a coordinate distance greater than the radius.
[0048] III. The crosshair image with the background noise removed in step II is subjected to straight line fitting in the statistical probability Hough transform manner. The line set is obtained after the straight line fitting. The line set results are at the left and right edges of the gray scale step of the true value position of the crosshair image, and the intersection of the two straight lines is obtained.
[0049]
[0050] In the formula, k1, k2, b1, and b2 are the slopes and intercepts of the two straight lines, respectively. The coordinate center point is obtained by directly averaging the point set;
[0051] IV. The coordinate center point obtained in step III is taken as the adjustment reference point of the sighting line of the photoelectric intelligent sight 17, and the correction value of the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 is obtained. The photoelectric intelligent sight 17 is corrected by using the correction value, as shown in Figure 6
[0052] The correction value of the photoelectric intelligent sight 17 is obtained as follows:
[0053] When the horizontal deviation between the crosshair image and the center of the field of view is Δx, according to the principle of photoelectric imaging, the following formula applies:
[0054]
[0055]
[0056] In the formula, w is the target surface width of the CCD, h is the target surface height of the CCD, a is the field of view of the objective lens of the optoelectronic intelligent sight, f is the effective focal length of the optoelectronic intelligent sight, θ is the horizontal angle between the optical axis of the optoelectronic intelligent sight and the optical axis of the aiming scope, and n θ δ represents the pixel difference between the target point in the horizontal direction and the center point of the field of view, where δ is the pixel size.
[0057] The angle θ between the two optical axes in the horizontal direction can be obtained from the above formula. x Similarly, the angle θ between the two optical axes in the vertical direction can be obtained. y ;
[0058]
[0059] In an optoelectronic intelligent sight, after obtaining the pixel differences Δx and Δy between the center of the crosshair and the center of the optoelectronic intelligent sight's field of view through image processing, the azimuth and elevation angle deviation θ can be calculated. x θ y These two parallax values are used in fire control corrections.
[0060] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the concept and scope of the present invention. Various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the design concept of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
