- FIG. 1 shows a lighting device with a conventional deflection device for a lidar sensor
- FIG. 2 shows a further illumination device with a further conventional deflection device for a lidar sensor
- 3-5 different exemplary fields of view or illumination areas which can be realized with the proposed deflection device; a lighting device with a first embodiment of a deflecting device for a lidar sensor; a lighting device with a second embodiment ei ner deflection for a Lidarsensor; a schematic representation of a principal mode of operation of the deflection device; and a basic procedure of an embodiment of a method for producing a deflection device for a lidar sensor.
- Description of embodiments 1 shows in principle a structure of a lighting device 100 with a conventional deflection device 30 for a lidar sensor.
- the illumination device 100 comprises a radiation generation device 10, preferably a laser, which emits an electromagnetic emission beam S in the form of light onto a movable micromirror 20.
- the micromirror 20 reflects the transmission beam S onto the deflection device 30 in the form of a reflecting mirror, which illuminates a field of view (FOV) 200.
- FOV field of view
- a basic shape of the field of view 200 essentially corresponds to a basic shape of the deflection device 30.
- the transmission beam S is guided over the deflection device 30 and thereby illuminates the entire field of view 200.
- the transmission beam S is reflected, wherein reflected radiation is detected and used to determine a distance of the object.
- FIG. 1 shows a deflection device 30 according to the reflection principle.
- FIG. 2 shows a further illumination device 100 with a further conventional deflection device 30, which is designed according to the transmission principle.
- the deflection device 30 consists of a transmission optical system, which has for the transmit beam S in the middle of merging and spreading at the edge or widening properties.
- the central region A of the field of view 200 has round image or scan points P and the edge regions B, C of the field of view 200 spread or oblong oval image or image Have scan points P.
- Reception optics of Lidarsensors be realized, which allows any redistribution and change in shape of scan points P in the field of view 200.
- the predetermined by a deflection unit in the form of the movable micromirror 20 "mechanical" field of view is mounted by a mounted in the optical path adapted optical element such that the pixels arise in an actually interesting detection area.
- optical element reflective (e.g., mirrors), refractive (e.g., transmission optics), diffractive (e.g., diffractive optical element, DOE).
- reflective e.g., mirrors
- refractive e.g., transmission optics
- diffractive e.g., diffractive optical element, DOE
- the edge area of the field of view 200 is not needed in a high resolution.
- a lidar sensor with the deflection device in the motor vehicle for example, it is important that vehicles are detected at an early time in a driving tube of the vehicle. The closer the Einscherer, the more dangerous this is for the ego vehicle. The closer the Einscherer is to the ego vehicle, the larger it appears as an object. Since it is a large object, it will fill the entire vertical field of view. Therefore, a high vertical resolution is not required in this case. Much more important is the extension of the horizontal field of view of the fiber optic sensor. In the center of the image, all vertical pixels are then again recorded in accordance with the mechanical field of view, in order to enable as high a resolution as possible object detection or free area detection.
- FIGS. 3 to 5 show different possibilities of the changes of the
- Field of view 200 in particular to a horizontal expansion of the field of view 200.
- a number of pixels P of the modified field of view 200 is preferably the same as a number of pixels P of the original field of view 100 in all variants shown.
- FIG. 3 shows on the left a conventional field of view 200, as can be realized, for example, with a deflection device 30 of FIG.
- a modified field of view 200 can be seen, in which pixels P are missing in the upper area, which are added to the left and right in the middle area.
- FIG. 4 shows a further variant of a modified field of view 200.
- the top and bottom lines of the pixels P of the field of view 200 are added offset to the top and bottom of the field of view 200.
- FIG. 5 shows a further variant of a modified field of view 200, wherein in this variant regions with pixels P are inserted to the left and right of the main field. be added, which are spread in the vertical direction. In this way, low vertical sensitivity and increased horizontal sensitivity of the illumination device 100 (not shown) are supported. In this way, with all the aforementioned modified fields of view 200 a
- Detecting regions left and right beyond the source region of the field of view 200 which means a horizontal extension of the field of view 200.
- a lidar system with a wider field of vision or detection area is made possible, which is better able to detect, in particular, moving objects.
- FIG. 6 shows an illumination device 100 with a first embodiment of a deflection device 30 for a lidar sensor. It can be seen that the deflection device 30 comprises a main optical element 31 and optical placement elements 32a, 32b, which serve as optical wedge-shaped optics to the optical
- Main element 32 are added or integrated into this. As a result, this provides a kind of "split" optic of the redirector 30. In this way, an upper placement element 32a assists in illuminating a left area 200a of the field of view 200. A lower placement element 32b allows a transmit beam to cover the right area 200b of the field of view 200. As a result, it is made possible that the overall field of view is expanded horizontally.
- FIG. 7 shows an illumination device 100 having a radiation generating device 10 with a further embodiment of a proposed deflection device 30. It can be seen that a total of four positioning elements 32a... 32d are provided, which are arranged in corner regions of the deflection device 30, the corner regions of Field of view 200 (not shown) illuminate. Any desired transformation of "mechanical" into “real" detection regions (rectangular to round, etc.) via reflective optical elements is possible with the deflection devices 30 mentioned, whose reflection region can be a defined geometric or defined free-form optical surface. In order to implement the desired effects, a defined number of reflective, and / or transmissive and / or diffraction-changing elements can be used. the. Furthermore, for this purpose, any combination of said elements is possible.
- the deflection device 30 shows, in principle, that a defined minimum distance z2 of the field of view 200 from the deflection device 30 is required for achieving the proposed effect of the deflection device 30.
- the distance z1 is too small, the areas A, B, C of the field of view 200 are arranged overlapping each other ("near zone") .Almost in the "far range” at a distance z2 which is approximately ten times the geometric diameter x of the deflection device 30, the areas A, B, C of the field of view 200 become separately visible.
- the deflection device 30 can be formed as a one-piece device having separate or integrally formed placement elements 32a ... 32d.
- FIG. 9 shows a basic sequence of an embodiment of the proposed method for producing a deflecting device 30 for a lidar sensor.
- a main optical element 30 is provided.
- a step 310 at least one optical placement element 32a ... 32d is provided.
- the optical placement element 31 a ... 31 d is arranged in relation to the main optical element 30 in such a way that a defined field of view 200 can be illuminated by means of the deflection device 30, a defined number of times being determined by means of the optical placement element 32 a Pixel of the field of view is defined placeable.
- the order of providing the main optical element 30 and the at least one optical placement element 32a ... 32d is freely selectable.
- the present invention provides an improved deflection device for a lidar sensor, with which various possibilities for light redistribution in lidar systems can be realized, the deflection device permitting an expansion of the limited possibilities of micromirror movement.
- the lidar sensor with the proposed deflection device can preferably be used in the automotive sector for distance and speed measurement of objects.
- an improved lidar sensor can be realized, which provides a specifically extended detection range and can thereby significantly increase a safety level of the motor vehicle.
- a preconditioning of a brake booster or another assistance system of the motor vehicle is undertaken.
