[0128] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technology are as follows: based on multiple half-division units, total relative attenuation analysis units, illumination direction determination units, and light diffusion direction determination units, by obtaining all half-division results of the outer contour line of the camera component and calculating the total brightness relative attenuation value of each half-division result, the current ambient illumination direction is further determined, and the preliminary refinement of the current ambient light diffusion parameters is achieved, thereby ensuring the subsequent control accuracy of the light-emitting parameters of the focusing LED 2, so as to ensure that the mobile phone can obtain better shooting images.

[0129] Specifically, the light spreading direction determination unit includes: a contour segmentation subunit, a light source point assumption subunit, a spreading line assumption subunit, a sensor assumption combination subunit, a light brightness attenuation analysis subunit, and a light spreading parameter determination subunit;

[0135] The light brightness attenuation analysis subunit is used to calculate the ratio of the ambient brightness difference and the distance between two brightness sensors in each path sensor combination based on the ambient brightness values ​​of the locations where all brightness sensors are located, as the light brightness attenuation speed of the corresponding path sensor combination;

[0136] The light spreading parameter determination subunit is used to determine the current ambient light spreading parameter based on the light brightness attenuation speed of the path sensor combination of all assumed light spreading lines at each assumed light source point position and the current ambient light direction.

[0137] In this embodiment, multiple assumed light source point positions are determined based on all brightness sensor positions in the first semi-contour and all brightness sensor positions in the second semi-contour on the same side of the illumination center line, including:

[0138] Determine a line between each brightness sensor position point in the first warp semi-contour and each brightness sensor position point in the second warp semi-contour on the same side of the illumination center line as a first line;

[0139] Filter out from all the first links, all the first links whose intersections with the illumination center line and the starting direction of the current ambient illumination direction are located on the same side as all the second links;

[0140] The intersection point of each second connecting line and the illumination center line is regarded as a hypothetical light source point position, and a plurality of hypothetical light source point positions are obtained from the intersection points of a plurality of second connecting lines and the illumination center line.

[0141] In this embodiment, the ambient brightness difference between the two brightness sensors is the difference between the ambient brightness values ​​acquired by the two brightness sensors.

[0142] In this embodiment, the distance between the two brightness sensors is the distance between the position points where the two brightness sensors are located, wherein the position point where the brightness sensor is located is the position point corresponding to the physical center point of the projection area of ​​the brightness sensor on the waterproof mobile phone case.

[0143] In this embodiment, the light brightness attenuation speed of the path sensor combination is the brightness attenuation value per unit length in the path when the ambient light propagates from the location of the brightness sensor with a larger ambient brightness value in the path sensor combination to the location of the brightness sensor with a smaller ambient brightness value.

[0144] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technology are as follows: based on the contour differentiation subunit, the light source point hypothesis subunit, the scattering line hypothesis subunit, the sensor hypothesis combination subunit, the light brightness attenuation analysis subunit, and the light scattering parameter determination subunit, by sequentially determining multiple hypothetical light source point positions, all hypothetical light scattering lines of each hypothetical light source point position, and the light brightness attenuation rate of the sensor combination, the current ambient light scattering parameters are further refined, and the subsequent control accuracy of the light emitting parameters of the focusing LED 2 is further guaranteed, so as to ensure that the mobile phone can obtain better shooting images.

[0145] Specifically, the light spreading parameter determination subunit includes: a truth calculation end, a light spreading parameter determination end;

[0146] The authenticity calculation end, the light spreading parameter determination end, and the luminous parameter analysis submodule are connected in sequence;

[0147] The authenticity calculation end is used to calculate the authenticity of each assumed light source point position based on the light brightness attenuation speed of the path sensor combination of all assumed light diffusion lines at each assumed light source point position, including:

[0148]

[0149] Where γ is the authenticity of the currently calculated assumed light source point position, n is the total number of sensor combinations of all assumed light diffusion lines of the currently calculated assumed light source point position, and v is i is the light brightness attenuation rate of the path sensor combination of the i-th assumed light spreading line at the currently calculated assumed light source point position;

[0150] The light scattering parameter determination terminal is used to regard the assumed light source point position corresponding to the maximum truth among all assumed light source point positions as the real light source point position, and regard the real light source point position and the current ambient light direction as the current ambient light scattering parameter.

[0151] In this embodiment, the authenticity of the assumed light source point position indicates the possibility that the assumed light source point position is the actual light source point position.

[0152] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technology are as follows: based on the authenticity calculation end, the light scattering parameter determination end and the above formula, the authenticity of each assumed light source point position is accurately calculated, and the real light source point position with extremely high reliability is determined, thereby achieving the final improvement of the current ambient light scattering parameters, and further ensuring the subsequent control accuracy of the light emitting parameters of the focusing LED2, so as to ensure that the mobile phone can obtain better shooting images.
