Detailed Implementation

[0020] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application, the solution of this application will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0021] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this application, but this application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.

[0022] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides an exemplary description of the multi-device mapping calibration method, apparatus, equipment, and storage medium for production line calibration equipment provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the multi-device mapping calibration method for the production line calibration equipment provided in this embodiment of the application. First, refer to... Figure 1 The multi-device mapping calibration method 100 for the production line calibration equipment is described in detail below. The calibration method 100 includes the following steps: S101. Acquire the measurement values ​​of the preset LED module through a reference calibration device and at least one device to be calibrated.

[0023] Specifically, firstly, multiple LED modules are selected as preset LED modules and placed sequentially on the measurement station of the reference calibration equipment. The color measurement values ​​of each preset LED module are collected as reference measurement values. Then, the preset LED modules are placed sequentially on the measurement station of the equipment to be calibrated, and the color measurement values ​​of each preset LED module are collected as calibration measurement values. Through the above method, a set of measurement values ​​of the same set of preset LED modules under multiple calibration devices is obtained.

[0024] Optionally, in some embodiments, the preset LED module is independent of the LED module to be calibrated, and the number of preset LED modules is not less than 10.

[0025] Specifically, the preset LED module is a multi-LED module separately selected from the production line specifically for calibration purposes. It is a different physical entity from the LED module currently being calibrated, and the two are independent of each other. After calibration, the preset LED module can be reused for subsequent periodic calibrations without needing to be reselected for each calibration.

[0026] Furthermore, in order to cover the typical brightness and chromaticity ranges on the production line, the number of preset LED modules is no less than 10 to provide sufficient redundant data points. Preferably, the number of preset LED modules is 10, which allows for control of calibration time while ensuring calibration accuracy.

[0027] For example, the measured value may include: RGB tristimulus values.

[0028] Specifically, the RGB tristimulus values ​​can include: red X stimulus value (RX), red Y stimulus value (RY), red Z stimulus value (RZ), green X stimulus value (GX), green Y stimulus value (GY), green Z stimulus value (GZ), and blue X stimulus value (BX), blue Y stimulus value (BY), and blue Z stimulus value (BZ), totaling 9 channels. The RGB tristimulus values ​​of 10 preset LED modules measured by device A (the device to be calibrated) can be denoted as matrix TA, and the RGB tristimulus values ​​of the same set of preset LED modules measured by device B (the reference calibration device) can be denoted as matrix TB. TA and TB are represented as follows: ; ; in, TA and TB Both have 9 lines A 10-column matrix, with red columns... RX , RY , RZ ;green GX , GY , GZ ;blue BX , BY , BZ Each row corresponds to a color channel (e.g., red). RX , RY , RZ (etc.), each column corresponds to a preset LED module.

[0029] S102. Using the measurement value of the reference calibration device as the reference measurement value, establish a linear mapping relationship from each of the devices to be calibrated to the reference calibration device, wherein the linear mapping relationship is: ; In the formula, This is the calibration value that is consistent with the reference of the reference calibration device after mapping. The measured values ​​collected by the device to be calibrated. This is the gain coefficient. This is the offset coefficient.

[0030] This step establishes a linear mapping relationship from the device to be calibrated to the reference calibration device based on the measured values ​​of the preset LED module on the reference calibration device and each device to be calibrated, and solves for the mapping parameters. Specifically, the measured value of the reference calibration device (such as device B) in step S101 is used as the reference measured value. The measured value of the device to be calibrated (e.g., device A) is the value to be calibrated. A linear mapping relationship is obtained through the correspondence between two sets of measured values.

[0031] For example, the gain coefficient and the offset coefficient The gain coefficient is calculated using the least squares method. The least squares calculation method can be as follows: using the measured value of the preset LED module under the calibrated device as the independent variable, and the measured value of the preset LED module under the reference calibration device as the dependent variable, the gain coefficient is calculated using the least squares method. and the offset coefficient .

[0032] Specifically, the least squares method is a data fitting method that finds the optimal combination of parameters to minimize the sum of squared errors between the model's predicted values ​​and the actual observed values. Measurements collected by the device to be calibrated (e.g., device A) can be used as independent variables (input variables), and measurements collected by the reference calibration device (e.g., device B) can be used as dependent variables (target variables). Multiple data point pairs are formed by mapping the independent and dependent variables one-to-one. Then, through the aforementioned linear mapping relationship, a linear mapping relationship between the independent and dependent variables can be established. The gain coefficient is then calculated using the least squares method. and the offset coefficient .

[0033] Taking the red X channel as an example, substituting the measured values ​​of the preset LED modules (e.g., 10 modules) collected in step S101 into the above linear mapping relationship, we can obtain the following formula: ; The formula contains 10 equations, but has 2 unknowns ( and Since the solution cannot be solved precisely, optimization methods are needed to find the optimal approximate solution.

[0034] For example, the least squares method can be used to calculate its optimal approximate solution, that is, to find the optimal approximate solution. and This minimizes the sum of squared errors for all data points.

[0035] The above solution process is for a single color channel. Since the measured values ​​include RGB tristimulus values, totaling 9 channels, it is necessary to establish the linear mapping relationship for each channel of the RGB tristimulus values, and perform the above least squares calculation independently for each channel. Similarly, the same calculation is performed for the other 8 channels (RY, RZ, GX, GY, GZ, BX, BY, BZ) to obtain the gain coefficient and offset coefficient for each channel.

[0036] Based on the least squares method described above, the calculated gain coefficients and offset coefficients for each channel are stored in vector form: , ; Furthermore, when there are two or more devices to be calibrated, a linear mapping relationship is established between each device to be calibrated and the reference calibration device, and each linear mapping relationship is independent of the others.

[0037] Specifically, when there are two or more devices to be calibrated (such as devices A, C, D, etc.), device B is used as the reference calibration device, and a linear mapping relationship from each device to device B is established. For example, the mapping relationship from device A to device B corresponds to the gain coefficient MK. A and offset coefficient MB A The mapping relationship from device C to device B corresponds to the gain coefficient MKc and the offset coefficient MB. c The mapping relationship from device D to device B corresponds to the gain coefficient MK. D and offset coefficient MB D The gain coefficient and offset coefficient of each mapping relationship are calculated and stored independently without interference.

[0038] S103. Based on the linear mapping relationship, convert the measured values ​​of the LED module to be calibrated collected by the device to be calibrated into the reference measured values.

[0039] Specifically, based on the linear mapping relationship established in step S102, the measurement values ​​of the LED module to be calibrated collected by the device to be calibrated are converted into the reference measurement values ​​of the reference calibration device. For example, after conversion... To ensure the calibration value is consistent with the reference calibration equipment, Output to device A The calibration module is used to perform point-by-point calibration of the LED module to be calibrated.

[0040] because It has been unified to the reference calibration equipment B Under the benchmark, the equipment A Corrected LED modules and equipment BThe calibrated LED modules have a consistent brightness and colorimetric standard. Therefore, calibrated LED modules can be mixed, interchanged, and combined on the same LED display screen, avoiding color differences and bright / dark zoning issues in large-screen splicing caused by deviations between devices.

[0041] In summary, the multi-device mapping calibration method 100 for production line calibration equipment provided in this application collects the measurement values ​​of each preset LED module through a reference calibration device and a device to be calibrated. Based on this, a linear mapping relationship is established from the device to be calibrated to the reference calibration device. The gain coefficient is used to eliminate the proportional deviation between the device to be calibrated and the reference calibration device (such as errors caused by differences in lens transmittance and sensor sensitivity), and the offset coefficient is used to eliminate fixed deviations (such as errors caused by dark current and background noise). This transforms the measurement values ​​of the module to be calibrated collected by the device to be calibrated to the reference of the reference calibration device, achieving reference unification among multiple calibration devices. Furthermore, LED modules calibrated by different calibration devices can be mixed, interchanged, and combined on the same LED display screen, avoiding color difference and brightness / darkness zoning problems in large-screen splicing caused by deviations between devices.

[0044] Specifically, the RGB tristimulus values ​​can include: red X stimulus value (RX), red Y stimulus value (RY), red Z stimulus value (RZ), green X stimulus value (GX), green Y stimulus value (GY), green Z stimulus value (GZ), blue X stimulus value (BX), blue Y stimulus value (BY), and blue Z stimulus value (BZ), for a total of 9 channels.

[0045] The linear mapping relationship is established for each channel of the RGB tristimulus values, and the above least squares calculation is performed independently for each channel. Similarly, the same calculation is performed for the other 8 channels (RY, RZ, GX, GY, GZ, BX, BY, BZ) to obtain the gain coefficient and offset coefficient of each channel.

The linear mapping relationship is as follows: ; In the formula, This is the calibration value that is consistent with the reference of the reference calibration device after mapping. The measured values ​​collected by the device to be calibrated. This is the gain coefficient. This is the offset coefficient.
