[0025] Reference Figure 1The present invention provides an imaging quality testing device, comprising a first light source 101, a first beam splitter 201, a product to be tested, a second beam splitter 202, a first detection camera 301, a second detection camera 302, a second light source 102, a third detection camera 303, and a control system 500. The first light source 101, the first beam splitter 102, the product to be tested, the second beam splitter 202, and the first detection camera 301 are sequentially arranged along the optical path propagation direction and remain coaxial; the second detection camera 302 is arranged on one side of the first beam splitter 201, and the second light source 102 is arranged on one side of the second beam splitter 202; the third detection camera 303 is arranged on the other side of the second beam splitter 202; the second light source 102, the second beam splitter 202, and the third detection camera 303 are coaxial; and the control system 500 is electrically connected to the first light source 101, the second light source 102, the first detection camera 301, the second detection camera 302, and the third detection camera 303.
[0026] Among them, the light emitted by the first light source 101 passes through the first spectroscopic element 201, the product to be tested and the second spectroscopic element 202 in sequence, and is then split by the second spectroscopic element 202 to form a first light and a second light. The first light enters the first detection camera 301, and the second light enters the third detection camera 303; the light emitted by the second light source 102 passes through the second spectroscopic element 202 and is split into a third light and a fourth light. The third light enters the third detection camera 303, and the fourth light passes through the product to be tested and the first spectroscopic element 201 in sequence, and is reflected by the first spectroscopic element 201 to the second detection camera 302.
[0027] It should be noted that the first and second beam splitting elements 201 and 202 may be beam splitting devices such as beam splitting prisms or gratings for splitting the light. The first, second, and third detection cameras 301, 302, and 303 may be CCD (charge coupled device) cameras or CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) cameras.
[0028] In some embodiments of the present invention, the control system 500 includes three subsystems: a light source driving system, an electric adjustment device control system, and an image collection and processing system.
[0029] Reference Figure 1In this example, an AR / VR waveguide product to be tested is placed, and the light source driving system in the control system 500 lights up the first light source 101. The light emitted by the first light source 101 is split by the first spectroscopic element 201. The first spectroscopic element 201 transmits the light to the waveguide product to be tested. The product to be tested performs total internal reflection and diffraction on the incident light, and then emits the processed light to the second spectroscopic element 202. The second spectroscopic element 202 transmits the light to the first detection camera 301 to detect the imaging quality, wherein the second spectroscopic element 202 reflects 50% of the light and enters the third detection camera 303 to monitor the coaxial state of the optical path; without moving the direction of the product to be tested, the light source driving system in the control system 500 lights up the second light source 102. The light emitted by the second light source 102 is split by the second spectroscopic element 201. The second spectroscopic element 201 reflects 25% of the light and is incident on the waveguide product to be tested on the first electric adjustment device ... The processed light is then emitted to the first beam splitter 201. The first beam splitter 201 reflects the light to the second detection camera 301 for image quality detection. The second beam splitter 202 also transmits 50% of the light to the third detection camera 303 to monitor the coaxial state of the optical path. During these two processes, the third detection camera 303 always monitors the coaxial state of the optical path. For example, the third detection camera 303 will feed back the collected light spot image to the control system 500. The image collection and processing system of the control system 500 will process and calculate the input light spot centroid image information to calculate the coordinate position of the light spot centroid. The coordinate position information is input to the electric adjustment device control system of the control system 500. If the coordinate position of the light spot centroid deviates, it is determined that the optical path is not in a coaxial state. The electric adjustment device control system of the control system 500 will control the corresponding components to adjust according to this information until the optical paths are in a coaxial state.
[0030] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the imaging quality testing device also includes a product carrier, which is used to carry the product to be tested and fix the position of the product to be tested, so that the process of testing the imaging quality can prevent the product to be tested from shaking or shifting, thereby reducing the error of the test results.
[0031] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the product carrier includes a first electric adjustment device 401, which is electrically connected to a control system 500. Specifically, the control system 500 is configured to adjust the position of the product carrier via the first electric adjustment device 401 so that the product under test remains coaxial with the first light source 101, the first beam splitter element 201, the second beam splitter element 202, and the first detection camera, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of product imaging quality testing.
[0032] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the imaging quality testing device further includes a second electric adjustment device 402, on which the first light source 101 is disposed, and the second electric adjustment device 402 is electrically connected to the control system 500. Before placing the product to be tested for product imaging quality testing, the device needs to be calibrated. Specifically, after the light source drive system of the control system 500 illuminates the first light source 101, the electric adjustment device control system of the control system 500 controls the second electric adjustment device 402 to adjust the position of the first light source 101, so that the first light source 101 and the third detection camera 303 remain coaxial, thereby reducing errors in the test results.
[0033] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the imaging quality testing device further includes a third electric adjustment device 403, the first spectroscopic element 201 is disposed on the third electric adjustment device 403, and the third electric adjustment device 403 is electrically connected to the control system 500. Before placing the product to be tested for product imaging quality testing, the device needs to be calibrated, and the system calibration also requires adjustment of the first spectroscopic element 201 and the second spectroscopic element 202. Specifically, the first spectroscopic element 201 is placed, the light source driving system of the control system 500 lights up the first light source 101, and the electric adjustment device control system of the control system 500 controls the third electric adjustment device 403 to adjust the position of the first spectroscopic element 201 so that the transmission direction of the first spectroscopic element 201 is coaxial with the third detection camera 303. The second spectroscopic element 202 is also adjusted in the same way so that its transmission direction is coaxial with the third detection camera, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the imaging quality test.
[0034] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the imaging quality testing device also includes a plurality of fourth electric adjustment devices 404, and the first detection camera 301, the second detection camera 302 and the third detection camera 303 are respectively arranged on the corresponding fourth electric adjustment devices 404, and each fourth electric adjustment device 404 is electrically connected to the control system 500. Before placing the product to be tested for product imaging quality testing, the device needs to be calibrated. When performing system calibration, the control system 500 can also control the corresponding fourth electric adjustment device 404 to adjust the position of the corresponding first detection camera 301, the second detection camera 302 and the third detection camera 303 so that they are in the corresponding optical path coaxial state. Combined with Figure 1It can be seen that the first detection camera 301 maintains a coaxial optical path with the first light source 101, the first beam splitter 201, the product to be tested, and the second beam splitter 202; the second detection camera 302 maintains a coaxial optical path with the first beam splitter 201; and the third detection camera 303 maintains a coaxial optical path with the second beam splitter. The third detection camera constantly monitors the coaxial state of the optical path, collects image information of the spot of light emitted from the second beam splitter 202, and feeds it back to the image collection and processing system of the control system 500. The image collection and processing system processes and calculates the input image information of the spot centroid, calculates the coordinate position of the spot centroid, and inputs this coordinate position information to the electric adjustment device control system of the control system 500. When the coordinate position of the spot centroid deviates, it is determined that the optical path is not coaxial. The electric adjustment device control system controls the corresponding electric adjustment device to adjust the corresponding components, including the first detection camera 301 and the second detection camera 302, until the optical paths are coaxial, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the imaging quality test. It can be understood that the function of the third detection camera 303 is to monitor whether the coaxial state of the optical path of the system is normal, so as to ensure the stability and accuracy of the imaging quality test; the function of the first detection camera 301 and the second detection camera 302 is to collect the imaging of the product to be tested for imaging quality testing. Specifically, the first detection camera 301 and the second detection camera 302 collect the imaging formed by the light passing through the product to be tested, and input the imaging information into the image collection and processing system of the control system 500. The image collection and processing system analyzes the imaging information, evaluates the degree of imaging distortion, calculates the MTF curve, and calculates imaging clarity and other imaging quality-related parameters.
[0035] It should be noted that the first electric adjustment device 401 , the second electric adjustment device 402 , the third electric adjustment device 403 and the fourth electric adjustment device 404 may adopt a structure capable of adjusting position, such as a multi-axis adjustment robot arm or a screw transmission device.
[0036] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the second beam splitter 202 reflects 50% of the light emitted by the first light source 101, forming a first light beam that is reflected to the third detection camera 303; the second beam splitter 202 transmits 50% of the light emitted by the first light source 101, forming a second light beam that is transmitted to the first detection camera 301. The use of the second beam splitter 202 enables simultaneous testing of imaging quality while monitoring the coaxial state of the system's optical path using the third detection camera 303. The 50% ratio of the light splitter 202 to the third detection camera 303 ensures that the brightness of the light spot is moderate, neither overexposed nor overly dark, so that the complete information of the light spot can be accurately captured and its center of mass position calculated.
[0037] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the second beam splitter 202 reflects 25% of the light emitted by the second light source 102 to form a third light beam, which is then reflected to the product under test. The second beam splitter 202 transmits 50% of the light emitted by the second light source 102 to form a fourth light beam, which is then transmitted to the third detection camera 303. The use of the second beam splitter 202 enables simultaneous testing of imaging quality while monitoring the coaxial state of the system's optical path using the third detection camera 303. The 50% ratio of light split by the second beam splitter 202 to the third detection camera 303 ensures that the brightness of the light spot is moderate, neither overexposed nor overly dark, so that the complete information of the light spot can be accurately captured and its center of mass position calculated.
[0038] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the first light source 101 and the second light source 102 are projector light sources, lasers, LED light sources, or OLED light sources. These light sources emit light with higher brightness, more saturated colors, lower energy consumption, and longer lifespan than conventional light sources, offering advantages in the field of near-eye displays. Using these test light sources ensures that the results of imaging quality tests are of practical value.
[0039] According to the imaging quality testing device of the embodiment of the present invention, the first light source 101 and the second light source 102, after being split by the spectroscopic element, can respectively pass through the front and back sides of the product for bidirectional transmission testing, so that the imaging quality of the front and back sides of the product can be tested without moving the product. At the same time, the device is provided with a third detection camera 303 to monitor the coaxial state of the optical path of the system. The third detection camera 303 collects the light of the third detection camera 303 split by the second spectroscopic element 202 and feeds its spot image information back to the image collection and processing system of the control system 500 for calculating the centroid position of the spot and determining the coaxial state of the optical path. If the optical path is not in the coaxial state, the electric adjustment device of the control system 500 will control the corresponding electric adjustment device to move the corresponding component until the optical path is in the coaxial state, thereby reducing the error in the imaging quality testing process. In addition, the control system 500 can be set to periodically self-check, by regularly lighting the first light source 101 and the second light source 102 for system calibration, and automatically adjusting the detection camera and spectroscopic element in the device to ensure the stability and accuracy of the test.
