Description

Compact high-brightness display system for flight simulator view
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of visual display of flight simulators, in particular to a visual compact high-brightness display system of a flight simulator, aiming at solving the practical problems of large light loss, limited image brightness adjustment range and large volume of the existing visual display.
Technical Field
The flight simulator cockpit simulator is a testing and training device which simulates the state, environment and condition of the flight simulator when the flight simulator executes a task and provides similar control load, vision, hearing and motion feeling for a pilot. The aircraft cockpit simulator is a typical human-in-loop simulation system, can be used for engineering optimization design and personnel training, has extremely high safety and economy, and particularly is used for performing simulation training on fighters by inputting battlefield environment data into a system in advance during combat training, so that the combat effect can be greatly improved, the combat expense can be saved, and the casualties can be reduced.
Since more than 70% of the information of the aircraft pilot comes from the vision, the vision system is a key component of any cockpit simulator, and the fidelity thereof directly determines and influences the application and development of the simulator. The visual system is generally composed of three parts, namely a database (geography and scene), an image generator and a hardware display system. The display can be divided into real image and virtual image according to the principle of display imaging and the nature of the image finally displayed to the flight crew. The virtual image is formed by converging light reflection extension lines, does not need to be supported by a display screen, and has the characteristic of strong depth perception, and the virtual image display system mainly comprises a coaxial virtual image display system and a paraxial virtual image display system.
The coaxial virtual image display system consists of a display, a spectroscope and a collimating mirror, wherein the collimating mirror is a spherical reflecting mirror and is formed by grinding glass or plating a reflecting layer on a smooth surface, and an object positioned on a focal plane of the collimating mirror can form an upright infinite virtual image. The spectroscope is designed into a lens with 50% transmittance and reflectivity, and is placed on a focal plane of the collimating mirror, so that half of light emitted from the surface of the display is reflected to the collimating mirror after passing through the spectroscope, the collimating mirror reflects about 90% of the light to the spectroscope, and only 22.5% of the initial light is left to become final effective light after being attenuated by the spectroscope by 50%, and the final effective light is actually lower than 22.5% of the initial light, so that the light loss of the display system is large, and the image brightness is low. Secondly, because of belonging to the coaxial optical system, when the observer deviates far from the optical axis, the observed image distortion is larger, and the method is only suitable for one person to watch the image. Moreover, since the beam splitter can reflect light in the cockpit, the display system is greatly interfered by external stray light, and the image contrast is reduced. Finally, due to the limitation of the structure of the display system, the viewing angle of the display system is relatively small, the horizontal viewing angle generally does not exceed 50 degrees, and the vertical viewing angle does not exceed 35 degrees. Due to its many disadvantages, as projection devices are reduced in price, they have been gradually replaced by paraxial virtual image display systems.
The existing paraxial virtual image display system mainly comprises a projector, a spherical collimating mirror and a rear projection screen, wherein the spherical collimating mirror is usually made of a vacuum negative pressure layer of reflecting film on a precise smooth spherical frame, the rear projection screen is a curved hard screen, the rear projection screen is obtained by processing a mould hot-pressing flat organic glass through a special coating process and is arranged on a focal plane of the spherical collimating mirror, and an image on the rear projection screen is an erected infinite-distance virtual image through the spherical collimating mirror. Due to the off-axis mode, the display system has obvious advantages that the radius of the spherical collimating lens can reach 3-3.5 meters, the horizontal field angle can reach 150-220 degrees, and the vertical field angle can reach 40-50 degrees. Compared with a coaxial virtual image display system, the spherical collimating mirror is obliquely arranged in front of a driver, an eye point is not on an optical axis, stray light near a cabin cannot be reflected into a field of view of the driver through a spherical surface, and image distortion is not large when an observer keeps away from the optical axis. The rear projection screen in the conventional paraxial virtual image display system has good diffusion effect, small light loss and high brightness, can approximate to the brightness in the air, and is widely applied in practice at present.
The actual light intensity changes continuously with the passage of time, and the light intensity in the noon time is obviously higher than that in the morning and evening time. However, in the conventional paraxial virtual image display system, the light intensity adjustment range is very limited due to the transmission attenuation of light rays when the light rays pass through the rear projection screen, the adjustment range can not reflect the change of external light intensity along with time at all, and the brightness displayed at noon is basically not different from the brightness displayed at morning and evening. Therefore, it is a problem to be solved urgently to further improve the brightness of the paraxial virtual image display system. In addition, in the existing paraxial virtual image display system, the projector and the spherical collimating lens are respectively arranged on two sides of the rear projection screen, a longer distance exists between the projector and the rear projection screen, and the limited space in the cockpit cannot be effectively utilized.
Disclosure of Invention
