Optical projection system with image pickup device
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of optical projection system, particularly relate to a kind of optical projection system that is used for controlling the image pickup device that cursor moves that has.
Background technology
General user when carrying out bulletin, can connect computing machine and projector with the image projection of computing machine to screen, and the user often needs to use some control device to come cursor on the operational computations machine.These devices comprise mouse, trace ball and rocking bar.Generally speaking, mouse inside has a spin, and when mouse-over one surface, the rolling amount of spin will be detected and with the amount of movement that decides cursor, makes cursor original position from the screen move to the position that the user wants.In order to make spin be applicable to different surfaces, reference position and any position on the screen that common spin moves all do not have fixing relation, and the user needs to be familiar with earlier such mode of operation.The principle and the mouse of trace ball are similar, but trace ball is that a spin is fixed on the point, and roll this spin of user produces rolling amount, with the amount of movement that decides cursor.Rocking bar is a kind of controller of column, can tilt to the direction of two coordinate axis, though the direction of the inclination of rocking bar directly corresponds to the direction of coordinate usually, operate but being not easy accurately.In addition, some rocking bar when different angles of inclination, the cursor on the screen has different translational speeds, so the user will have a twist of the wrist just can accurately control cursor.
Many remote control system for computer have developed the hobby that to meet the user and the control device of custom.Progress along with mechanics of communication, as wireless communication modes such as ultrasound wave, infrared ray and radio frequencies, can allow the user set up ditch messenger between controller and the computing machine, provide the user when making bulletin, have higher maneuverability to use cursor on control device operational computations machine and the screen.Tele-control system can be installed on inductor the relative position that detects user's moving cursor on controller, computing machine or the screen usually; yet in practical application; these technology tend to be subjected to the influence of length, width and the scope in space, for example need the system of complexity and expensive device just to be not suitable for the less occasion in application space.Except that computer screen, large-scale display device as projector, also often provides the instrument of vision interaction, still needs simple controllers to come the running of control computer in many bulletins.As when broadcasting lantern slide, next that will use that a controller controls lantern slide open, last one, first or last etc., and some relatively more professional bulletins, as the use of software or user's training, just wish that controller can allow user's cursor on operational computations machine screen or the large-scale display device intuitively.
Being equiped with the electric charge lotus root in certain projector attaches together to put and can be used to special ray on the sensing screen.For example, when the user pointed to certain position on the screen with the laser light pen, laser light was got back to projector via screen reflection, is attached together by the electric charge lotus root and puts sensing, and so, projector just can determine the direction that cursor moves.The benefit of using laser light pen maximum is exactly the cursor of user on very intuitively just can function screen.Yet when use has the electric charge lotus root when attaching together the projector of putting as photosensory assembly, the laser direction of light must extend to whole screen, so projector need handle more data.Laser light in addition, must be noted that safety when using laser light pen irradiation screen, because can produce very big injury when shining eyes.
From the above, user regular meeting when making bulletin connects projector with computing machine, and in order with the audience better interaction to be arranged, controller of user's needs comes the cursor on the control computer.Common controller, as mouse, trace ball, rocking bar and laser light pen etc., though the user does not need too many extra training, just can operate easily, but controllers such as mouse, trace ball and rocking bar need be operated on a fixing position, maneuverability is less, though and the laser light pen has higher maneuverability, laser light injures eyes easily, notes safety during use.
