The calculation formula is:
[0081]
[0082] Wherein, l3 represents the laser point depth index, I represents the number of laser points, K represents the number of pixels in the i-th laser point, Pi ik represents the gray value of the kth pixel in the i-th laser point, Represents the standard grayscale value of the laser point; the larger the depth index of the laser point, the more uneven the depth.
[0083] The laser point distribution index, the laser point area index and the laser point depth index are obtained and processed to obtain the laser point uniformity index. The calculation formula of the laser point uniformity index is:
[0084]
[0085] Wherein, L1 represents the laser point uniformity index, α1 represents the weight coefficient of the laser point distribution index, α2 represents the weight coefficient of the laser point area index, and α3 represents the weight coefficient of the laser point depth index.

[0142] The present embodiment provides an LED light guide plate optoelectronic comprehensive testing system, which evaluates the comprehensive uniformity of the light guide plate by analyzing the laser point distribution, illumination uniformity and light leakage degree of the laser-marked light guide plate; evaluates the light transmittance of the light guide plate by a transmittance index module, evaluates the energy efficiency of the light guide plate by an electro-optical conversion index, and examines the stability of the light guide plate under temperature changes by a stability index; and designs quality indicators to facilitate subsequent quality grading of light guide plates and improve the efficiency of light guide plate sorting.
[0143] Example 2
[0144] In a certain light guide plate production factory, an LED light guide plate photoelectric integrated testing system provided by the present invention is used to ensure that the produced light guide plates meet high standards in terms of optical performance, stability and quality. The following is a detailed process of the factory using this system to produce and test the quality of light guide plates.
[0145] The factory first produced a batch of 5,000 laser-dot light guide plates, each with 10,000 laser dots. The production process of the light guide plate includes material selection, laser dotting, cutting and molding. During the production process, the factory pays special attention to the accuracy of the laser dotting, because it directly affects the optical performance of the light guide plate. The front of each light guide plate is designed with laser dots of different densities and distributions. These dots are used to adjust the propagation path of light to achieve a uniform lighting effect.
[0146] The standard spacing of laser points is 2.0mm, the allowable deviation is ±0.1mm, and the standard area of laser points is 0.05mm 2 , the allowable deviation is ±0.002mm 2 . After the light guide plate is made, it enters the laser point uniformity module in the optoelectronic integrated test system. This module obtains and processes the front image of the light guide plate to obtain the distribution, area and depth data of the laser points. By calculating the number of laser points and the distance from the center of each laser point to the center of the adjacent laser point, the laser point distribution index is obtained. This index reflects the uniformity of the laser dot; the area of each laser point is measured and compared with the standard area to calculate the laser point area index. This index is used to evaluate whether the area of the laser dot is consistent; by processing the grayscale image, the grayscale value of each laser point area is obtained, and then the depth index of the laser point is calculated to reflect the depth consistency of the laser dot; through weighted processing of these indicators, the system obtains the final laser point uniformity index. After calculation, the laser point uniformity index of a laser dot light guide plate is 0.956, which meets the production quality.
[0147] The illumination uniformity module is used to evaluate the illumination performance of the light guide plate under incident light at different angles. The light guide plate is evenly divided into several areas. In each experiment, a single LED light source is placed directly behind the divided area and tested multiple times at different angles. The illumination intensity index of each area is calculated, reflecting the illumination uniformity of the area. The system combines the illumination intensity index of all areas to calculate the comprehensive illumination uniformity index of the light guide plate.
[0148] The side light leakage module is used to detect light leakage at the edge of the light guide plate. The system collects data such as the side luminous flux, reflectivity, perimeter, thickness and dot density of the light guide plate, and calculates the side light leakage index through a formula. This index helps the factory understand the defects in the edge design of the light guide plate and make improvements.
[0149] The comprehensive uniformity module is used to obtain the laser point uniformity index, the comprehensive illumination uniformity index and the side light leakage index and process them to obtain a comprehensive uniformity index.
[0150] The light transmittance index module analyzes the light transmittance data of the light guide plate to evaluate its light transmittance performance and ensure that the light can be evenly distributed on the light guide plate.
[0151] The electro-optical conversion index module evaluates the luminous efficiency of the light guide plate. By measuring the relationship between the light output and power consumption of the light guide plate, the electro-optical conversion index is obtained. This indicator is crucial for monitoring and analyzing the energy efficiency of the light guide plate.
[0152] The stability assessment module detects the optical performance and physical changes of the light guide plate under different temperature conditions through temperature change experiments. The system calculates the stability index and analyzes whether the light guide plate can maintain stable performance in actual use.
[0153] Finally, the comprehensive index module of the system weights all the test results to obtain a comprehensive evaluation index. Based on this index, the system obtains the quality index and maps the light guide plate to different quality grading intervals. Table 3 shows the quality index of a group of laser dot light guide plates.

[0156] On this basis, the quality grading module first performs preliminary grading according to the light transmittance index. After ensuring that the light transmittance performance is qualified, a second grading is performed according to the quality index. The quality grading interval is [0,1]. If the quality index of the light guide plate ∈ [0.88,1], the result of the second quality grading of the light guide plate is high quality. If the quality index The result of the second quality grading of the light guide plate is ordinary. The unqualified light guide plates will be reprocessed to ensure that each light guide plate shipped out of the factory meets the high quality standards.
[0157] After the light guide plates were tested and graded, the light transmittance of the 5,000 laser-dotted light guide plates was 99.85%, the quality rate was 52.37%, and the common rate was 47.48%. The products were put on the market. The factory also continuously improved the production process through customer feedback and used the test system to optimize the design and quality control process of the light guide plates. This series of operations not only improved the market competitiveness of the products, but also provided customers with more efficient and higher-quality lighting solutions.
[0158] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
