Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of laser ranging, and particularly to a laser calibration method and a laser rangefinder based on an ADC circuit. Background Art

[0002] When measuring distance by a laser rangefinder, due to many influencing factors, there are certain errors in the laser rangefinder. The influencing factors mainly include two categories. One is the influence of the laser rangefinder itself, and the other is the influence of the external environment. The influence of the laser rangefinder itself mainly includes the influence of the zero position and the pulse width. Therefore, how to eliminate the influence of the zero position on the measured distance and reduce the influence of the pulse width on the judgment of the measured distance has become an important goal for improving the accuracy of the laser rangefinder.

[0003] Moreover, when the laser rangefinder measures the distance of short-distance objects, the received laser pulse signal will be very strong. Therefore, its pulse width will be very wide. And the larger the pulse width, the greater the measurement distance error will be, which results in the inability to complete the zero position calibration within a small distance.

[0004] Currently, for the calibration method of the zero position error, since calibration is required at a relatively long distance, the distance of an object more than 50 m is measured by the rangefinder, and the actual distance between the rangefinder and the measured object is measured by a specific instrument. Then, the measured distance of the rangefinder is subtracted from the actual distance to obtain the measurement error value of the rangefinder. Then, the measured distance of the rangefinder is subtracted from the measurement error value through software to obtain the actual distance, thereby achieving calibration. However, this calibration method requires a large site space. The ranging calibration is more than 50 m. If it is carried out indoors, an open indoor space of more than 50 m is required, and the requirements for the corresponding site are relatively high. If it is carried out outdoors, it is necessary to select an open and good visibility condition.

[0005] Therefore, the existing calibration methods have great limitations for the site. Moreover, due to the influence of the pulse width and other influencing factors at long distances, the calibration accuracy is not high. Summary of the Invention

On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention can be more clearly and thoroughly understood, and the scope of the present invention can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which shows a flowchart of a laser calibration method based on an ADC circuit provided by the embodiments of the present application. Specifically, this laser calibration method is applied to the MCU controller in the laser rangefinder. The laser rangefinder includes a laser emission module, a laser reception module, an ADC circuit and an MCU controller, and the laser rangefinder is at the first calibration point of a pre-built laser rangefinder calibration platform including a measurement board, and the first actual distance between the first calibration point and the measurement board is less than 5 meters; this laser calibration method includes:

[0036] Step S110, controlling the laser emission module to emit a first laser signal to the measurement board;

[0037] Step S120, converting the second laser signal reflected by the measurement board into a digital signal by the ADC circuit of the laser reception module;

[0038] Step S130, determining the compensation distance corresponding to the first measurement distance between the first reference point and the measurement board based on the digital signal, so as to realize the calibration of the laser rangefinder.

[0039] Therefore, by means of the above technical solution, the laser calibration method of the embodiments of the present application can realize short-distance calibration in a small indoor space, effectively avoiding the limitations of the calibration site.

[0040] It should be noted here that the laser calibration method of the present application can be implemented through the following two method embodiments. For specific details, please refer to the relevant descriptions below.

[0041] The First Embodiment

[0042] The laser rangefinder of the present application includes a laser emission module TX, a laser reception module RX, an ADC circuit, an FPGA circuit, and an MCU controller. The laser reception module RX converts the received optical signal into an analog signal and transmits it to the ADC circuit. The ADC circuit then converts the analog signal into a digital signal. After the digital signal is processed by the FPGA circuit, the signal characteristics are output to the MCU controller, and then the MCU controller processes it to achieve calibration compensation.

[0043] Based on the above laser rangefinder, the laser calibration method of the present application includes:

[0044] First, as Figure 2 shown, a laser rangefinder calibration platform can be preset, and a first calibration point and a second calibration point can be set at one end of the laser rangefinder calibration platform. At the same time, the first calibration point and the second calibration point are on the same straight line, and a measurement board is set in the extension direction of the straight line where the first calibration point and the second calibration point are located. The first actual distance between the measurement board and the first calibration point is L1, and the second actual distance between the measurement board and the second calibration point is L2. And L1 can be greater than or less than L2, and both L1 and L2 are less than 5 meters.

[0045] Secondly, the laser rangefinder can be placed at the first calibration point, and the MCU controller can control the laser emission module TX to emit a first laser signal to the measurement board. The laser reception module RX can receive the second laser signal reflected by the measurement board, and the ADC circuit can be controlled to convert the second laser signal into a digital signal.

[0046] Moreover, the MCU controller can obtain the time from the emission to the reception of the laser according to the second laser signal, and use the formula speed of light * time / 2 to calculate the first measurement distance D1 of the current laser rangefinder at the first calibration point.

[0047] At the same time, the MCU controller can control the FPGA circuit to determine the pulse width n of the digital signal, and use the pulse width n as the exponential value m in the pre-constructed exponential function 2 m to obtain 2 to the power of n, and determine the compensation distance corresponding to 2 to the power of n, and use the compensation distance corresponding to 2 to the power of n as the compensation distance L corresponding to the first measurement distance D1 补 . Wherein, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 5.

[0048] It should be understood that the specific process of determining the compensation distance corresponding to 2 to the power of n can be set according to actual requirements, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0049] Optionally, the compensation distance corresponding to 2 to the power of n is n - 4 meters. For example, when n = 5 meters, the compensation distance is 1 meter; when n = 6 meters, the compensation distance is 2 meters.

[0050] Optionally, in the case of a sequence matrix or a number list table that records the corresponding relationship between 2 to the power of n and its corresponding compensation distance, the compensation distance corresponding to 2 to the power of n can be determined by querying the sequence matrix or the number list table.

[0051] Subsequently, the calibration distance of the laser rangefinder can be calculated according to the first measured distance D1, the compensation distance L 补 and the first actual distance L1. Specifically:

[0052] ΔL = D1 + L 补 - L1;

[0053] Then the calibrated standard test distance L of the laser rangefinder 标 = D1 + L 补 - ΔL, and the specific value of the compensation distance L 补 can be embedded into the MCU controller of the laser rangefinder to achieve calibration compensation of the laser rangefinder.

[0054] In addition, after placing the laser rangefinder after the above calibration compensation on the second calibration point, based on the compensation distance, the second measured distance D2 between the second calibration point and the measurement plate is determined. Subsequently, it can be judged whether the second measured distance D2 is equal to the second actual distance L2.

[0055] If the second measured distance D2 is equal to the second actual distance L2, then the compensation distance L 补 is used as the final compensation distance of the laser rangefinder, thus completing the calibration;

[0056] If the second measured distance D2 is not equal to the second actual distance L2, the laser rangefinder can be moved in the direction of approaching or moving away from the measurement plate on the straight line where the laser rangefinder and the measurement plate are located, so that the current reading of the laser rangefinder is equal to L2. Then the moving distance value d between the final characteristic position of the laser rangefinder and the second reference point can be measured. Then, the compensation distance is adjusted by using the moving distance value, and the adjusted compensation distance can be used as the final compensation distance L' of the laser rangefinder 补 = L 补 ± d, and at this time the final calibration distance ΔL' of the laser rangefinder 补 = ΔL ± d. Therefore, the calibrated standard test distance L' of the laser rangefinder 标= D2 + L 补 -ΔL’ 补 。

[0057] It should be noted here that for this laser rangefinder, the final compensated distance it determines is a fixed value, that is, after calibration, each compensation is fixed.

[0058] Second Embodiment

[0059] The laser rangefinder of the present application includes a laser emission module TX, a laser reception module RX, an ADC circuit and an MCU controller, and a power adjustment device is connected to the laser emission module (or by providing a device at the front end of the laser rangefinder that can reduce the laser emission power), and a waveform recognition device is connected to the laser reception module.

[0060] Furthermore, the present application can implement a laser calibration method by reducing the laser power, and this laser calibration method includes:

[0061] First, a laser rangefinder calibration platform can be preset, and a first calibration point can be set at one end of this laser rangefinder calibration platform. At the same time, a measuring plate is set in the extending direction of the straight line where the first calibration point is located. The first actual distance between this measuring plate and the first calibration point is d0, and d0 is less than 5 meters.

[0062] Second, the laser rangefinder can be placed at the first calibration point and the power supply is turned on. The MCU controller can control the laser emission module TX to send a first laser signal to the measuring plate at the initial power to measure the distance to the measuring plate. After the second laser signal returned by the measuring plate is converted into a digital signal by the ADC circuit of the laser reception module RX, the waveform recognition device acquires the laser pulse signal. For the currently acquired return signal, because the measurement distance is short, its pulse signal width will be very wide. Therefore, at this time, it is necessary to adjust the power of the laser emission module TX of the laser rangefinder.

[0063] And, the MCU controller can control the power adjustment device to continuously reduce the emission power of the laser emission module TX until a sharp wave appears on the display of the waveform recognition device. Record the third measurement distance d1 measured by the current laser rangefinder at this time, and then calculate the first distance difference Δd1 = d1 - d0 of this laser rangefinder.

[0064] And, the MCU controller can restore the power of the laser emission module TX of the laser rangefinder to the initial power, read the first measurement distance to the measuring plate when the laser rangefinder is restored to the initial power as d2, and then according to the previous first distance difference Δd1 and the first actual distance d0, calculate the distance Δd0 that this laser rangefinder needs to compensate = d2 - Δd1 - d0.

[0065] And when in actual measurement, the measured distance d after compensation by the laser rangefinder s = d 测 -Δd1 - Δd0; where d s is the measured distance finally output by the laser rangefinder; d 测 is the distance measured by the laser rangefinder.

[0066] It should be understood that the above laser calibration method based on the ADC circuit is only exemplary. Those skilled in the art can make various deformations according to the above method, and the deformed scheme also belongs to the protection scope of this application.
