[0026] Among existing naked-eye three-dimensional display technologies, three-dimensional volume display technology is the most intuitive solution, and the physical depth information of its voxels is real.

[0027] Dynamic volume scanning is a technique in which each cross-section of a three-dimensional object undergoes sequential, periodic motion in space to restore and display the three-dimensional volume. Two laser beams of specific power and wavelength intersect within a dual-frequency upconversion material. The energy level changes that cause visible light to be emitted at the intersection point. This technique is called dual-frequency upconversion. This application combines these two techniques to achieve 3D volume display within dual-frequency upconversion materials.

[0028] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present application, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0029] The following describes a three-dimensional imaging control device and a three-dimensional imaging system according to an embodiment of the present application with reference to Figures 1-4.

[0030] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a 3D imaging control device according to one embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1 , the 3D imaging control device 100 comprises an addressing surface assembly 10, an imaging surface assembly 20, and a control assembly 30. The addressing surface assembly 10 corresponds to a first laser configuration, while the imaging surface assembly 20 corresponds to a second laser configuration. The incident direction of the second laser forms a predetermined angle with the incident direction of the first laser.

[0031] Specifically, the first and second laser beams are pre-modulated by the pre-stage optical system, and the method of the pre-stage optical system is not limited. Referring to Figure 2, the first laser 101 and the second laser 102 are fixed in position and direction. The first laser is incident on one end of the dual-frequency up-conversion material 230, penetrates the dual-frequency up-conversion material 230 along the direction of laser incidence, and exits at the other end. In this device, the surface formed by the path of the first laser 101 in the dual-frequency up-conversion material 230 is referred to as the cross-section addressing surface. The second laser 102 is perpendicular to the incident direction of the first laser 101 and passes through the entire dual-frequency up-conversion material 230. The intersection surface with the first laser 101 is referred to as the imaging surface. It should be noted that the first laser 101 can be a line laser, and the product of the line laser beam width and the number of layers is determined by the size of the target three-dimensional image 103. The second laser 102 can be a circular spot laser.

[0032] Specifically, dual-frequency upconversion 3D display is based on the physical phenomenon of two-level dual-frequency upconversion. Two laser beams of specific wavelengths intersect within a dual-frequency upconversion material to produce visible light. By precisely controlling the two laser beams to intersect within the dual-frequency upconversion material, the intersection surface excites the material to emit light, forming a luminescent surface. Simultaneously, controlling the intersection surface to scan within the dual-frequency upconversion material in a sequence of cycles creates a 3D luminous body. By controlling the shape of the imaging surface, the shape of the displayed 3D object can be controlled.

[0033] Furthermore, the control component 30 processes the slicing sequence of the three-dimensional model and controls the addressing plane and the imaging plane to precisely intersect according to the slicing sequence.

[0034] In this example, the control component 30 is electrically connected to the imaging surface component 20 and the addressing surface component 10, respectively, to perform two-dimensional slicing of a target three-dimensional image (e.g., a model of a three-dimensional object to be displayed) to obtain a sequence of slice images. Based on the sequence of slice images, the addressing surface component 10 controls the first laser to periodically move to a set layer in the dual-frequency upconversion material, forming a moving addressing surface. The imaging surface component 20 controls the second laser to project the slice images in the slice image sequence onto the addressing surface corresponding to the slice images, so that the slice images in the slice image sequence switch as the addressing surface moves, forming the target three-dimensional image. This allows the target three-dimensional image to be clear, detailed, and stable.

[0035] 2-3 , the imaging surface assembly 20 may include: a digital light processing (DLP) control card 21 and a digital micromirror device (DMD) 22 . The DLP control card 21 is electrically connected to the DMD 22 .

[0036] Specifically, the DLP control card 21 is responsible for signal transmission, image storage, and playback control. DMD22 22 is a micro-electromechanical system with electronic input and optical output. It is composed of an array of multiple high-speed digital light reflection switches, which can reliably modulate the input light source in space, thereby realizing active scanning imaging. It should be noted that the circular spot laser (i.e., the second laser) covers DMD22. After the incident circular spot laser is reflected by DMD22, the outgoing light must be perpendicular to the line laser 101 in the dual-frequency up-conversion material. The DMD22 and the DLP control card 21 are electrically connected via a flexible cable. The DLP control card 21 also has an electrical signal interface for external signal transmission and processing and internal information exchange.

[0037] In this example, the control component 30 is electrically connected to the DLP control card 21 and is used to load the slice image sequence into the DLP control card 21 for storage. It also loads the configured imaging time and imaging interval of the slice image sequence in the DMD 22 into the DLP control card 21, so that the DLP control card 21 controls the DMD 22 to perform spatial light modulation on the second laser according to the slice image sequence, imaging time, and imaging interval, thereby projecting the slice images in the slice image sequence onto the addressing surface corresponding to the slice images. Thus, the second laser is controlled by the DLP control card; by using a DMD with millions of micro-mirrors as the imaging surface light spatial modulation device, the imaging surface has millions of pixels. The pixels are superimposed on the addressing surface to form dense voxels, making the three-dimensional display more precise and detailed, and fully and comprehensively displaying the detailed information of the three-dimensional object from the inside out.

[0038] Optionally, the imaging surface of the present application can be imaged through a mask, but it can only form a static and simple three-dimensional object with no shape change in front and back; the imaging surface of the present application can also be imaged by scanning with a high-speed scanning galvanometer. Due to the limited scanning speed of the high-speed scanning galvanometer, it can only form a three-dimensional body with a smaller resolution. The number of complex and large three-dimensional voxels is huge, and it is difficult for the high-speed scanning galvanometer to complete the scanning on the imaging surface.

[0039] 3 , the DLP control card 21 includes a first FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) chip 211, a second FPGA chip 212, a memory chip 213, and a DLP chip 214. The DLP chip 214 is electrically connected to the first FPGA chip 211 and the second FPGA chip 212, respectively. The memory chip 213 is electrically connected to the first FPGA chip 211 and the second FPGA chip 212, respectively.

[0040] Specifically, both the first FPGA chip 211 and the second FPGA chip 212 are provided with a PCI interface, and are electrically connected to the storage chip 213 via the PCI interface. The first FPGA chip 211 and the second FPGA chip 212 primarily perform data transmission and processing, and each includes a DDC (digital down converter)-FPGA and an APPS (applications)-FPGA. The DDC-FPGA is primarily used for data transmission between the storage chip 213 and the DLP chip 214, while the APPS-FPGA is used for configuring timing and time synchronization.

[0041] In this example, the control component 30 is electrically connected to the second FPGA chip 212, and is used to load the slice image sequence to the storage chip 213 through the second FPGA chip 212, and transmit the imaging time and imaging interval to the DLP chip 214, so that the DLP chip 214 is used to control the DMD22 to perform spatial light modulation on the second laser according to the slice image sequence, imaging time and imaging interval, wherein the first FPGA chip 211 is used to transmit the slice image sequence in the storage chip 213 to the DLP chip 214, and the second FPGA chip 212 is electrically connected to the control component 30 via a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface.

[0042] Specifically, the second FPGA chip 212 is also provided with a USB interface, through which the control component 30 sends configuration instructions. The control component 30 initializes the DLP control card 21 and the laser marking control card 11 described below, loads the slice image sequence into the storage chip 213, configures the imaging time and imaging interval of the slice image sequence in the DMD 22, and sets the playback mode to passive mode, waiting for the synchronization signal to switch playback. The control component 30 can perform two-dimensional slicing of the target three-dimensional image (e.g., a model of a three-dimensional object to be displayed) to obtain the slice image sequence, and then initialize the DLP control card 21 and the laser marking control card 11 described below.

[0043] 2-3 , the addressing surface assembly 10 includes a laser marking control card 11 and a galvanometer 12 . The laser marking control card 11 is electrically connected to the galvanometer 12 and the DLP control card 21 .

[0044] Specifically, after the DLP control card 21 is configured, the control component 30 sets the pen number and jump parameters for the laser marking control card 11, loads the yaw position object and synchronization pulse object into the laser marking control card 11, and then begins marking. The imaging surface component 20 and the addressing surface component 10 begin operation, and the slice image sequence switches at high speed as the addressing surface in the dual-frequency upconversion material moves, forming a complete three-dimensional pattern. Finally, to end the 3D imaging, the laser marking control card 11 is controlled to exit the marking process, while the DLP control card 21 releases memory and exits.

[0045] In this example, the control component 30 is electrically connected to the laser marking control card 11. It generates yaw position commands based on the slice image sequence and sends these yaw position commands to the laser marking control card 11, which controls the movement of the galvanometer 12 by a predetermined number of strokes to move the first laser cycle within a predetermined layer within the dual-frequency upconversion material. The laser marking control card 11 is electrically connected to the control component 30 via a USB interface.

[0046] Specifically, the laser marking control card 11 is provided with a USB interface. After receiving the yaw position instruction sent by the control component 30 through the USB interface, the yaw position instruction is transmitted to the galvanometer 12. The galvanometer 12 is a high-speed vector scanning device. According to the yaw position instruction transmitted by the laser marking control card 11, it oscillates according to a certain angle step cycle, so that the first laser cycle moves to the set layer in the dual-frequency up-conversion material, wherein the total stroke range of the galvanometer 12 can be divided into several strokes, and each stroke corresponds to an angle step of the galvanometer 12. It should be noted that the maximum yaw stroke and the minimum yaw angle step interval of the high-speed scanning galvanometer 12 are adjustable, and the delay between steps is adjustable. In addition, controlling the number of steps within the stroke range of the high-speed scanning galvanometer 12, that is, controlling the number of layers of the addressing surface, can also further control the number of voxels and the resolution of the three-dimensional display. Thus, the first laser is controlled by the laser marking control card.

[0047] Alternatively, a polygonal mirror can be used to control the yaw of the addressing surface. This requires a very stable rotation speed and a highly accurate position sensor to provide a zero-point signal. However, this makes it difficult to guarantee the repeatability of the addressing surface, and imaging may be jittery. Alternatively, a DMD can be used to control the yaw of the addressing surface. The DMD provides higher resolution and faster speeds on the addressing surface, making it a more optimal solution. However, DMD reflections cause significant laser power loss. If the laser power is sufficient, simply increase the laser power.

[0048] As an example, referring to Figure 3, the galvanometer 12 includes: a yaw motor 121, a position sensor 122, a reflective lens 123 and a drive board 124. The drive board 124 is electrically connected to the yaw motor 121 and the position sensor 122 respectively. The reflective lens 123 is fixed on the motor shaft of the yaw motor 121. The position sensor 122 is electrically connected to the yaw motor 121 to collect the position signal of the yaw motor 121 and feed it back to the drive board 124; wherein, the laser marking control card 11 is electrically connected to the drive board 124, and is used to send the yaw position instruction to the drive board 124, so that the drive board 124 drives the yaw motor 121 according to the yaw position instruction and the position signal to drive the reflective lens 123 to swing.

[0049] Specifically, the position sensor 122 converts the electrical connection signal of the yaw motor 121 into a position signal and feeds it back to the driver board 124. The laser marking control card 11 sends the yaw position command to the driver board 124. The driver board 124 drives the yaw motor 121 to swing according to the received yaw position command and position signal, and the reflective lens 123 swings along with the motor shaft of the yaw motor 121. The negative feedback loop formed by the yaw motor 121 and the position sensor 122 provides the galvanometer 12 with a very high scanning speed and repeatable positioning accuracy. Combined with the highly reflective reflective lens 123 on it, it can accurately deflect the incident light. Therefore, through the control of the position sensor and excellent negative feedback signal, the accuracy and position repeatability of the stepping swing stroke can be improved, and a dense cross-section surface layer can be provided on the addressing surface, making the three-dimensional display imaging very stable.

[0050] As an example, the laser marking control card 11 is further configured to output a synchronization signal to the DLP control card 21 each time the galvanometer 12 moves one stroke, so that the DLP control card 21 synchronously switches the next slice image to the DMD 22 according to the synchronization signal. Alternatively, the DLP control card 21 is further configured to output a synchronization signal to the laser marking control card 11 when starting to switch the next slice image to the DMD 22, so that the laser marking control card 11 synchronously controls the galvanometer 12 to move one stroke according to the synchronization signal. The laser marking control card 11 is electrically connected to the second FPGA chip 212 via an IO interface, and the second FPGA chip 212 is electrically connected to the laser marking control card 11 via an IO interface.

[0051] Specifically, the laser marking control card 11 is also provided with an IO interface. Each time the galvanometer 12 moves one stroke, a synchronization signal (for synchronizing the signal frame rate between the DLP control card 21, such as a TTL pulse signal) is output to the DLP control card 21 through the IO interface. The second FPGA chip 212 in the DLP control card 21 is also provided with an IO interface. The IO interface of the second FPGA chip 212 receives the synchronization signal output by the laser marking control card 11 and transmits the synchronization signal to the DLP chip 214, so that the DLP chip 214 synchronously switches the next slice image to the DMD 22 according to the synchronization signal. Alternatively, when the DLP chip 214 begins switching the next slice image to the DMD 22, it outputs a synchronization signal to the laser marking control card 11 through the IO interface of the second FPGA chip 212, so that the laser marking control card 11 synchronously controls the movement of the galvanometer 12 one stroke according to the synchronization signal. The synchronization signal is a pulsed electrical signal with a variable duty cycle and period. Its level amplitude is adjustable and is not limited to 3.3V or 5V.

[0052] It should be noted that the synchronization signal can be output by the high-speed scanning galvanometer 12 and the laser marking control card 11 to the DLP control card 21, wherein the synchronization signal is bidirectional, and the DLP control card 21 can be used as a synchronization signal output end or as a synchronization signal input end. The high-speed scanning galvanometer 12201 can also be used as a synchronization signal output end or a synchronization signal input end. In this application, the DLP control card 21 is used as the synchronization signal input end only as an example.

[0053] In addition, after the synchronization signal is sent, there is a certain delay in the imaging of the galvanometer 12 and DMD22. The delay is adjustable within a certain range. The contrast and brightness of the three-dimensional image can be adjusted by setting the imaging time and dark image time of the imaging surface, as well as the scanning speed of the addressing surface.

[0054] Thus, the imaging surface and the addressing surface are synchronized via the synchronization signal, and the imaging surface picture sequence can be correctly corresponded on the addressing surface.

[0055] It should be noted that due to the persistence of vision of the human eye, 3D images require that a slice image sequence be played sequentially within a minimum of 33ms to avoid the appearance of flickering. A slice image sequence triggers the DLP to play synchronously within a cycle from the start to the end of the addressing plane.

[0056] In summary, by using a DMD with millions of micro-mirrors as the imaging surface light spatial modulation device, there are millions of pixels on the imaging surface. The pixels are superimposed front and back on the addressing surface to form dense voxels, making the three-dimensional display more accurate and delicate, and can fully and comprehensively display the detailed information of the three-dimensional body from the inside out; through position sensors and excellent negative feedback signal control, the accuracy and position repeatability of the stepping swing stroke can be improved, and a dense cross-section surface layer can be provided on the addressing surface, making the three-dimensional display imaging very stable.

[0058] Therefore, the three-dimensional imaging control device can make the target three-dimensional image clear, delicate and stable.
