[0002] Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB) is an intelligent beam control system that can adaptively change the beam type according to road conditions. Based on vehicle, road, and environmental conditions, the ADB system adaptively changes the high-beam beam shape to avoid glare for other road users, maintain the driver's illuminated field of view, and improve nighttime vehicle safety. However, ADB headlights exhibit numerous deviations from this ideal state, such as the uniformity of grayscale distribution caused by the lens surface microstructure, nonlinear effects caused by lens aberrations, and stray light caused by reflections from the lens surface and the mechanical structure of the lens. These factors make it difficult to spatially detect whether the ADB headlight's light panel is correctly positioned in the object focal plane. Summary of the Invention

[0014] In some embodiments, the amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis is performed based on the grayscale data to obtain the position of the frequency point, including

[0015] performing impedance matching, bandwidth matching, and signal amplification of the strip sensor based on the grayscale data to obtain processed grayscale data;

[0016] Obtaining a grayscale value of the image focal plane according to the processed grayscale data;

[0017] Constructing a linear relationship between the grayscale value of the image-side focal plane and the grayscale value of the object-side focal plane of the ADB headlight;

[0022] In some embodiments, the frequency domain characteristic function of the amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis is:

[0023] Where n is the number of lamp beads along the positive direction of the Y axis of the rectangular coordinate system; E is the brightness of the lamp bead on the image focal plane; τ is the width of the lamp bead on the image focal plane.

[0024] In some embodiments, the ADB headlight to be tested is a matrix ADB headlight.

[0025] In addition, to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention also proposes a frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection system, comprising: a strip sensor and a signal processing and motion control board connected to the strip sensor; wherein,

[0034] The present invention provides a frequency-domain-based method for testing the optical performance of ADB headlights, comprising: fixing the ADB headlight to be tested and lighting the ADB headlight so that each LED in the ADB headlight reaches the same fixed brightness; sequentially acquiring grayscale data for each row on the image-side focal plane of the ADB headlight using a strip sensor; performing amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis based on the grayscale data to obtain the location of frequency points; and determining whether the ADB headlight produces a clear image based on the location of the frequency points. In the present invention, the location of the first zero-crossing frequency point is determined based on the amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis.

The memory 1005 may optionally be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.

[0048] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 1 The structure shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation to the electronic device, and may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or arrange the components differently.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the memory 1005 as a storage medium may include an operating system, a network communication module, a user interface module, and a frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection program.

[0050] exist Figure 1In the electronic device shown, the network interface 1004 is mainly used for data communication with a network server; the user interface 1003 is mainly used for data interaction with a user; the processor 1001 and the memory 1005 in the electronic device of the present invention can be set in the electronic device. The electronic device calls the frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection program stored in the memory 1005 through the processor 1001 and executes the frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention.

[0051] The present invention provides a method, system and device for detecting the optical performance of ADB headlights based on the frequency domain.

[0052] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for detecting the optical performance of ADB headlights based on the frequency domain, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 2 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a frequency-domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection method according to the present invention.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection method includes:

[0054] Step S100: fixing the ADB headlight to be tested and lighting the ADB headlight so that each lamp bead of the ADB headlight reaches the same fixed brightness;

[0055] Step S200: sequentially acquiring grayscale data of each row on the image-side focal plane of the ADB headlight based on the strip sensor;

[0056] Step S300: performing amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis based on the grayscale data to obtain the position of the frequency point;

[0057] Step S400: determining whether the ADB headlights have clear imaging according to the positions of the frequency points.

[0058] In one example, the ADB headlight to be tested is a matrix ADB headlight.

[0059] It should be noted that this embodiment is described by taking the optical performance test based on the matrix ADB headlight as an example, and uses the geometric characteristics of the LED arrangement of the matrix ADB headlight to test whether its optical performance is qualified.

[0060] It is understandable that, combined with Figure 3 The measurement system shown in the figure illustrates the specific process of the frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance testing method. Figure 3As shown in the figure, the matrix ADB headlight is the ADB headlight to be tested; optical path folding system: a typical ADB headlight has an image focal plane about 25 meters away from the lens. In order to shorten the volume of the measurement system, the multiple reflection method is adopted to shorten the length of the main optical path; sensor plane: the sensor plane is located at the image focal plane of the ADB headlight lens. Considering the large imaging area, the use of a strip sensor is the best choice in terms of cost and feasibility. The strip sensor obtains the grayscale of one row of the two-dimensional image each time. The strip sensor can move in a direction perpendicular to itself, from the starting position to the end position, and the grayscale distribution of the entire image plane is obtained; signal processing and motion control board: the main functions of this component include impedance matching, bandwidth matching, signal amplification, frequency domain conversion, discrimination and display, and strip sensor motion control.

[0061] In one embodiment, the ADB headlight to be tested is fixed and the ADB headlight is illuminated so that each lamp bead of the ADB headlight reaches the same fixed brightness.

[0062] Specifically, the ADB headlight to be tested is placed in a fixed seat, and the ADB headlight driver board lights up the ADB headlight so that each lamp bead reaches the same fixed brightness. The ADB headlight to be tested can be a matrix ADB headlight. The typical matrix ADB headlight light source distribution is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, each lamp bead of the ADB headlight can be an LED.

[0063] In one embodiment, grayscale data of each row on the image-side focal plane of the ADB headlight is sequentially acquired based on a strip sensor, including: constructing a rectangular coordinate system at the image-side focal plane of the ADB headlight; and controlling the strip sensor to move along the positive direction of the X-axis of the rectangular coordinate system to sequentially acquire grayscale data of the image-side focal plane of the ADB headlight.

[0064] The origin of the rectangular coordinate system is located at the first pixel at the starting position of the strip sensor, the X-axis of the rectangular coordinate system is perpendicular to the strip sensor, and the Y-axis of the rectangular coordinate system is parallel to the strip sensor. The positive direction of the X-axis of the rectangular coordinate system is consistent with the direction vector from the starting position to the end position of the strip sensor's movement; the positive direction of the Y-axis of the rectangular coordinate system is consistent with the direction vector from the first pixel on the strip sensor to the last pixel.

[0065] Specifically, assuming that Figure 4 The matrix ADB headlight lens shown is an ideal optical system. Each lamp bead, i.e., LED, of the ADB headlight emits light evenly, and the influence of stray light caused by factors such as the entire mechanical structure of the ADB headlight and lens reflection is not considered.

[0066] For example, a rectangular coordinate system is constructed at the image focal plane: the origin of the rectangular coordinate system is located at the first pixel at the starting position of the strip sensor, the X-axis of the rectangular coordinate system is perpendicular to the strip sensor, and the Y-axis of the rectangular coordinate system is parallel to the strip sensor. The positive direction of the X-axis is consistent with the direction vector from the starting position to the end position of the strip sensor's movement; the positive direction of the Y-axis is consistent with the direction vector from the first pixel on the strip sensor to the last pixel.

[0067] In one embodiment, an amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis is performed based on the grayscale data to obtain the position of the frequency point, including performing impedance matching, bandwidth matching and signal amplification of the strip sensor based on the grayscale data to obtain processed grayscale data; obtaining the grayscale value of the image-side focal plane based on the processed grayscale data; constructing a linear relationship between the grayscale value of the image-side focal plane and the grayscale value of the object-side focal plane of the ADB headlight; constructing a grayscale distribution image of the image-side focal plane based on the linear relationship and the processed grayscale data; performing amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis on the grayscale distribution image to obtain a frequency domain characteristic function and an amplitude characteristic function; determining the frequency point of the first zero-crossing point based on the frequency domain characteristic function and the amplitude characteristic function; using the frequency point of the first zero-crossing point as the frequency point, and determining the position of the frequency point.

[0068] It should be noted that the strip sensor acquires the grayscale data of each row in turn and sends it to the signal processing and motion control board (such as FPGA). The signal processing and motion control board first performs front-end signal processing on the grayscale data, such as impedance matching, bandwidth matching and signal amplification of the strip sensor, and then performs frequency domain transformation, judgment and display based on the processed grayscale data.

[0069] For example, according to the characteristics of an ideal optical system, the grayscale value of the object focal plane and the grayscale value of the image focal plane are linearly related. Let f(x,y) represent the grayscale distribution of the object focal plane and g(x,y) represent the grayscale distribution of the image focal plane, then:

[0070] f(x,y)=kg(x,y)

[0071] Therefore, on the image focal plane, each grayscale distribution along the positive direction of the y-axis should be an image composed of several gate functions as shown in the figure below, which can be expressed by the following formula:

[0072] f(y)=E[g τ (y-y0)+g τ (y-y1)+g τ (y-y2)+...]

[0073] Where, E is the brightness of the lamp bead on the image focal plane; τ is the width of the lamp bead on the image focal plane.

[0074] Specifically, the frequency domain characteristic function of the amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis is:

[0075]

[0076] Where n is the number of lamp beads along the positive direction of the Y axis of the rectangular coordinate system; E is the brightness of the lamp bead on the image focal plane; τ is the width of the lamp bead on the image focal plane.

[0077] It is understandable that, with reference to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The amplitude-frequency characteristic function shown in the figure shows that the first zero-crossing frequency point (such as Figure 6 The ω0 point (shown in the figure), or the frequency point where 90% of the energy is concentrated, is linearly related to the size of the LED lamp bead under the condition of clear imaging. When the LED size and lens are determined, the position of this frequency point is fixed and can be set as ω0. Therefore, in this embodiment, the position of ω0 can be used as an indicator to determine whether the image is clear.

[0078] Exemplarily, the strip sensor acquires the grayscale data of each row in turn and sends it to the signal processing and motion control board (such as FPGA). The signal processing and motion control board calculates the value of ω0, determines whether the value of ω0 is correct (whether it conforms to the size of the LED lamp beads), and outputs the test results as the optical performance test results of the matrix ADB headlights.

[0079] It should be noted that actual matrix ADB headlights exhibit numerous deviations from the ideal optical system described above. For example, the lens surface microstructure can even out the grayscale distribution; lens aberrations can cause nonlinear effects; and stray light from the lens surface and the lens' mechanical structure can be very difficult to detect in the spatial domain whether the light panel is correctly positioned in the object focal plane. The frequency-domain ADB headlight optical performance testing method employed in this embodiment, based on the aforementioned amplitude-frequency characteristic principle, detects whether the optical performance of matrix ADB headlights meets design requirements, improving the accuracy of ADB headlight assembly testing and enhancing product quality consistency.

[0080] This embodiment provides a frequency-domain-based method for testing the optical performance of ADB headlights, including: fixing the ADB headlight to be tested and illuminating it so that each LED in the ADB headlight reaches a uniform, fixed brightness; sequentially acquiring grayscale data for each row on the image-side focal plane of the ADB headlight using a stripe sensor; performing amplitude-frequency analysis on the grayscale data to determine the location of frequency points; and determining whether the ADB headlight produces a clear image based on the location of the frequency points. In this embodiment, the location of the first zero-crossing frequency point is determined based on the amplitude-frequency analysis. Under conditions of clear imaging, the location of this frequency point is linearly related to the size of the LED bead. When the LED size and lens are determined, the location of this frequency point is fixed. Using the frequency point location as an indicator for determining whether an image is clear, the geometric characteristics of the ADB headlight's LED arrangement can be used to test whether its optical performance meets the standards, thereby improving the accuracy of ADB headlight assembly testing and enhancing the consistency of ADB headlight product quality.

[0081] In addition, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a storage medium, on which a frequency-domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection program is stored. When the frequency-domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection program is executed by a processor, the steps of the frequency-domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection method described above are implemented.

[0082] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a structural block diagram of an embodiment of a frequency-domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection system according to the present invention.

[0083] like Figure 7 As shown, the frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection system includes: a strip sensor 10 and a signal processing and motion control board 20 connected to the strip sensor 10; wherein,

[0084] Fixing the ADB headlight to be tested and lighting the ADB headlight so that each lamp bead of the ADB headlight reaches the same fixed brightness;

[0085] The signal processing and motion control board 20 is used to control the motion of the strip sensor;

[0086] The strip sensor 10 is used to sequentially acquire the grayscale data of each row on the image side focal plane of the ADB headlight; wherein the strip sensor is arranged on the image side focal plane of the ADB headlight;

[0087] The signal processing and motion control board 20 is further used to perform amplitude-frequency characteristic analysis based on the grayscale data to obtain the position of the frequency point;

[0088] The signal processing and motion control board 20 is further used to determine whether the ADB headlight has a clear image according to the position of the frequency point.

[0089] In one embodiment, if Figure 7 As shown, the frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection system further includes:

[0090] The optical path folding system 30 is located between the ADB headlight to be tested and the strip sensor 10 to shorten the length of the main optical path of the ADB headlight.

[0091] It should be noted that this embodiment is described by taking the optical performance test based on the matrix ADB headlight as an example, and uses the geometric characteristics of the LED arrangement of the matrix ADB headlight to test whether its optical performance is qualified.

[0092] Specifically, combined Figure 3 The measurement system shown in FIG3 specifically describes the frequency domain-based ADB headlight optical performance detection system. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the matrix ADB headlight is the ADB headlight to be tested; optical path folding system: a typical ADB headlight has an image focal plane about 25 meters away from the lens. In order to shorten the volume of the measurement system, the multiple reflection method is adopted to shorten the length of the main optical path; sensor plane: the sensor plane is located at the image focal plane of the ADB headlight lens. Considering the large imaging area, the use of a strip sensor is the best choice in terms of cost and feasibility. The strip sensor obtains the grayscale of one row of the two-dimensional image each time. The strip sensor can move in a direction perpendicular to itself, from the starting position to the end position, and the grayscale distribution of the entire image plane is obtained; signal processing and motion control board: the main functions of this component include impedance matching, bandwidth matching, signal amplification, frequency domain conversion, discrimination and display, and strip sensor motion control.

[0093] Exemplarily, the ADB headlight to be tested is placed in a fixed seat; the ADB headlight driver board lights up the ADB headlight so that each lamp bead reaches the same fixed brightness; the strip sensor 10 obtains the grayscale data of each row in turn and sends it to the signal processing and motion control board 20 (such as FPGA). The signal processing and motion control board 20 calculates the value of ω0, determines whether the value of ω0 is correct (whether it meets the size of the LED lamp bead), and outputs the test result as the optical performance test result of the matrix ADB headlight.

[0094] Understandably, actual matrix ADB headlights exhibit numerous deviations from the ideal optical system described above. For example, lens surface microstructures can even out grayscale distribution; lens aberrations can cause nonlinear effects; and stray light from the lens surface and the lens' mechanical structure can contribute to the difficulty of spatially detecting whether the light panel is correctly positioned in the object focal plane. The frequency-domain ADB headlight optical performance testing system employed in this embodiment, based on the principle of amplitude-frequency characteristics, detects whether the optical performance of matrix ADB headlights meets design requirements, improving the accuracy of ADB headlight assembly testing and enhancing product quality consistency.

[0095] In this embodiment, the frequency point position of the first zero-crossing point is analyzed based on the amplitude-frequency characteristics. Under the condition of clear imaging, it is linearly related to the size of the LED lamp bead. When the LED size and lens are determined, the position of this frequency point is determined. The frequency point position is used as an indicator to judge whether the imaging is clear, so that the geometric characteristics of the ADB headlight LED arrangement can be used to detect whether its optical performance is qualified, thereby improving the accuracy of ADB headlight assembly detection and improving the consistency of ADB headlight product quality.
