Description
Technical field
The present invention is about a kind of focusing mechanism and method, and especially, the present invention is about a kind of focusing mechanism and the method that can focus fast and accurately.
Background technology
Along with the arriving of digital Age, and the fast development of relevant software and hardware technology, various digital devices are widely used in daily life.Wherein, the digitized video recording unit, for example digital camera (digital camera, DC), (digital video recorder DV) etc., more replaces traditional image recording apparatus because of its convenience to digital camera gradually.In addition, the digitized video register system also extensively is installed in multiple portable electronic devices, for example (personal digital assistant PDA), notebook computer etc., carries out photologging at any time to make things convenient for the user for mobile phone, personal digital assistant.
In the past, the resolution of digitized video register system that is applied in aforesaid portable electronic devices is mostly less than mega pixel (mega-pixel).Because its quality of image is determined by focusing mechanism, so the digitized video register system of this class adopts tight shot mostly.Along with the increase of resolution, focusing mechanism is also more and more important to the influence of the quality of image.Therefore, zoom lens and focusing mechanism are used in the digitized video register system of aforesaid portable electronic devices gradually.
See also Fig. 1, Fig. 1 is the functional block diagram that illustrates the digitized video register system in the known technology.As shown in Figure 1, this digitized video register system 7 comprises camera lens (lens) 72, Image Sensor (imagesensor) 74, processing module (processing module) 76 and motor (motor) 78.This Image Sensor 74, for example CCD or CMOS can carry out image sensing by this camera lens, and the image that senses is transferred to this processing module 76.This processing module 76 then can be carried out as squelch, image sharpness assessment processing such as (image sharpness evaluation) this image, and the image of treated mistake is exported.In addition, this processing module 76 also can produce control signal according to this image, and this control signal is sent to this motor 78.This motor 78 is then adjusted the position of this camera lens 72 according to this control signal, to reach the purpose of focusing.
In known technology, the focusing of digitized video register system can be divided into two big steps: assessment of image sharpness and focus search (focus search).Whether the assessment of image sharpness is clear in order to the decision image, and the focus search is then in order to move to camera lens suitable focusing position (focus position).In addition, when being applied to aforesaid portable electronic devices, one of the emphasis that need consider of the focusing person that also is the known technology fast and efficiently how.
Had many image sharpness assessment algorithms to be applied to digital camera at present, yet many image sharpness assessment algorithms are too complicated and be difficult to be applied in the aforesaid portable electronic devices.In addition, one of the most normal focus search algorithm that is used to is the search method of climbing the mountain (mountain climb searchmethod) at present.The method needs motor repeatedly to move back and forth camera lens to carry out omnidistance rough search (coarsesearch) and follow-up trickle search (fine search) supervisor.
In rough searching procedure, motor with than high range in regular turn moving lens with the assessed value (focus value) that obtains each focal position, and when slope of a curve change that this assessed value connected, enter trickle searching procedure to each focal position.Trickle searching procedure is then later searched maximum assessed value for this motor with trickleer scale focal position is as focusing position, and camera lens is moved to this focusing position.Yet aforesaid focus search algorithm needs motor moving lens repeatedly, quite expends time in, and can increase the consume of motor and transmission component.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, a category of the present invention is to provide a kind of focusing mechanism and method, in order to solve the disappearance of known technology.
A kind of focusing mechanism according to first preferred embodiment of the present invention is to be applied to image recording system, and this focusing mechanism comprises evaluation unit and control module.This evaluation unit can produce a plurality of evaluations of estimate about this image according to the image of sensing element institute sensing.And this control module can be calculated the weighting evaluation of estimate according to these evaluations of estimate, and this control module optionally produces control signal according to this weighting evaluation of estimate and depth of focus table, moves with controls lens.
A kind of focusing method according to second preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises the following step: at first, set up depth of focus table according at least one parameter preset.Subsequently, generation is about a plurality of evaluations of estimate of image.Then, calculate the weighting evaluation of estimate according to these evaluations of estimate.At last, optionally produce control signal, move with controls lens according to this weighting evaluation of estimate and depth of focus table.
