The present invention relates to the field of touch technology, and in particular to a portable optical touch system, a portable optical touch device, and a method for sensing the position of an object.

1 is a perspective view of a conventional optical touch system. Referring to FIG. 1 , the optical touch system 100 includes a panel 104 , image sensing modules 106 and 108 , a processing circuit 110 , a reflective component 112 , a reflective component 114 , and a reflective component 116 . In addition, the quadrilateral area indicated by the symbol 118 in the figure is used as the touch area of the optical touch system 100, and the image sensing modules 106 and 108 are two different ones disposed in the touch area 118. The corners enable the sensing ranges of the two image sensing modules to cover the touch area 118, respectively. In this example, the touch area 118 has a quadrangular shape and is preferably rectangular. The symbol 102 in the figure refers to an object.

In the components of the optical touch system 100, the reflective element 112, the reflective element 114 and the reflective element 116 are formed of retro-reflective materials, which are used to reflect incident light (such as infrared light) to the touch. Within area 118. The image sensing modules 106 and 108 are used to capture images in the touch area 118. The processing circuit 110 is configured to receive the images captured by the image sensing modules 106 and 108, and according to the image sensing modules 106 and 108. The captured image is used to calculate the coordinates of the object 102 in the image relative to the touch area 118.

FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of a single touch of the optical touch system of FIG. 1. FIG. In FIG. 2, the same symbols as those in FIG. 1 are denoted by the same members. As shown in FIG. 2 , the image sensing module 106 can sense the object 102 along the sensing route 202 , and the image sensing module 108 can sense the object 102 along the sensing route 204 . Therefore, the coordinates of the object 102 can be obtained as long as the processing circuit 110 can obtain the linear equations of the sensing routes 202 and 204 and calculate the intersection of the sensing paths 202 and 204.

In the following, a description will be given of how the optical touch system 100 obtains the linear equations of the sensing routes 202 and 204, which will be explained first from the configuration of the image sensing modules 106 and 108.

Taking the image sensing module 106 as an example, its structure is as shown in FIG. FIG. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of the image sensing module 106. Referring to FIG. 3 , the image sensing module 106 includes an infrared light emitting device 302 , an optical lens set 304 , an infrared light filtering device 306 that can only pass infrared light, and an image sensor 308 . The infrared light emitting device 302 is configured to emit infrared light to illuminate the touch area 118, the reflective element 112, the reflective element 114 and the reflective element 116, and the image sensor 308 is configured to sequentially pass through the infrared light filtering device 306. The optical lens set 304 captures the image in the touch area 118 to transfer the acquired image to the processing circuit 110. When the object 102 is located in the touch area 118, the image sensing module 106 can obtain an image containing the object 102, as shown in FIG.

4 is a schematic diagram of an image sensed by the image sensing module 106. In Fig. 4, the white area indicated by symbol 402 is the bright area where the light reflected by the infrared light emitting device 302 emits infrared light to illuminate the reflective elements 114 and 116 to form a bright region in the image (bright) Zone), this bright zone 402 is the main sensing zone. The symbol 404 is the dark area caused by the object 102 shielding the bright area 402. As can be seen from FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, as long as the processing circuit 110 can know the angle α (the angle between the sensing route 202 and the upper side of the touch area 118) and the center of gravity or the center of the dark area 404, the sensing route can be further calculated. The linear equation of 202. Similarly, the processing circuit 110 can also calculate the linear equation of the sensed route 204 in the same manner. The coordinates of the object 102 are the intersections of the sensing routes 202 and 204.

The optical touch system shown in FIG. 1 can perform a function such as a mouse, a keyboard or a touchpad for a user input interface of a computer, allowing the user to perform an input operation directly with a finger. However, since the optical touch system 100 must have a physical panel 104, a reflective element 112, a reflective element 114, and a reflective element 116 to operate, the use environment is limited. Moreover, the price of the physical panel 104, the reflective element 112, the reflective element 114, and the reflective element 116 is not cheap, making the cost of such an optical touch system high. In addition, since the panel 104 has a certain volume, and the reflective element 112, the reflective element 114 and the reflective element 116 also have a certain length, the size of the optical touch system 100 cannot be reduced to be smaller and is convenient to carry.

It can be seen from the foregoing that the use environment, cost, volume and portability are problems to be solved by the existing optical touch system 100.

First embodiment:

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a portable optical touch system according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the portable optical touch system shown in FIG. 5, and FIG. 7 is a schematic view of FIG. A top perspective view of a portable optical touch system. Referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 7 , the portable optical touch system 500 includes an image sensing module 510 , an image sensing module 530 , a length adjustable connecting device 550 , a communication interface 560 , and a processing circuit 570 . The image sensing module 510 has a housing 5101, and the housing 5101 has a light transmitting region 5102. Image sensing module 530 There is a housing 5301, and the housing 5301 has a light transmitting region 5302. The two ends of the length adjustable connecting device 550 are respectively connected to the housings 5101 and 5301 for adjusting the distance between the image sensing modules 510 and 530.

The length adjustable connecting device 550 can adopt a multi-segment telescopic length rod structure or a slide rail structure to achieve a length adjustable function. However, the length adjustable connecting device 550 of the present invention is not limited to the above two implementations. the way. In addition, in this example, the communication interface 560 is a wired communication interface, such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface, but is not limited thereto. The general serial bus interface can be USB 1.0, USB 1.1, USB 2.0 or USB 3.0. Referring to Fig. 6, the same reference numerals as in Fig. 5 are denoted by the same members. This FIG. 6 mainly shows that the length of the length adjustable connecting device 550 can be shortened to enable the image sensing modules 510 and 530 to touch each other, so as to be convenient for the user to carry around.

Referring to FIG. 7, the same symbols as those in FIG. 5 are denoted by the same members, and the symbol 502 is denoted as an object such as a user's finger or a pen. In this example, the image sensing module 510 includes an image sensor 512, an infrared light filtering device 514 that only allows infrared light to pass through, and an optical lens 5161 and 5162. The optical lens set 516, the infrared light emitting device 518, and the optical lens 520. The image sensor 512 can be a charge-coupled device (CCD) or a complementary CMOS image sensor. The image sensor 512 can be in the form of an array or a linear form. In addition, in this example, the image sensor 512 has a viewing angle of about 30 to 45 degrees. Therefore, the image sensing module 510 must use the optical lens group 516 to amplify the viewing angle of the image sensor 512 to at least 90 degrees. So that the sensing range of the image sensing module 510 is at least a dotted line. The area covered by the angle between 582 and 584. In optical lens set 516, each optical lens can increase the viewing angle of image sensor 512 by at least 30 degrees. As for the infrared light emitting device 518, the infrared light emitted by the infrared light emitting device 518 sequentially passes through the optical lens 520 and the light transmitting region 5102 to illuminate an area covered by the angle between the dotted lines 582 and 584, including the object 502, so that the image sensor 512 can The image is transmitted through the infrared light filtering device 514, the optical lens group 516 and the light transmitting region 5102 to obtain an image after the object 502 reflects the infrared light. This means that the shape and size of the light-transmitting region 5102 must be designed such that the image sensor 512 senses the image of the area covered by the angle between the dotted lines 582 and 584, and the light-transmitting region 5102 cannot block the infrared. The light emitting device 518 transmits the direction of travel of the infrared light emitted by the optical lens 520 such that the infrared light cannot be irradiated to any one of the regions covered by the included angle.

Similarly, the image sensing module 530 includes an image sensor 532, an infrared light filtering device 534 that only allows infrared light to pass through, and an optical device composed of optical lenses 5361 and 5362 in addition to the housing 5301. Lens group 536, infrared light emitting device 538, and optical lens 540. In this example, the image sensor 532 has a viewing angle of about 30 to 45 degrees. Therefore, the image sensing module 530 must use the optical lens group 536 to amplify the angle of view of the image sensor 532 to at least 90 degrees. The sensing range of the image sensing module 530 is at least the area covered by the angle between the dashed lines 582 and 586. In optical lens set 536, each optical lens can increase the viewing angle of image sensor 532 by at least 30 degrees.

As for the infrared light emitting device 538, the infrared light emitted by the infrared light emitting device 538 sequentially passes through the optical lens 540 and the light transmitting region 5302 to illuminate an area covered by the angle between the dotted lines 582 and 586, including the object 502, so that the image sensor 532 can The image is transmitted through the infrared light filtering device 534, the optical lens group 536 and the light transmitting region 5302 to obtain an image after the object 502 reflects the infrared light. and This means that the shape and size of the light-transmitting region 5302 must be designed such that the image sensor 532 senses an image of the area covered by the angle between the dotted lines 582 and 586, and the light-transmitting region 5302 cannot block the infrared light. The transmitting device 538 transmits the infrared light emitted by the optical lens 540 so that the infrared light cannot be irradiated to any one of the regions covered by the included angle.

As can be seen from the above description, the angle between the dotted lines 582 and 584 is about 90 degrees, and the angle between the dotted lines 582 and 586 is also about 90 degrees. Therefore, the sensing ranges of the image sensing modules 510 and 530 are partially overlapped, and the partially overlapping regions are used to define a touch region 590. In addition, as can be seen from FIG. 7 and the above description, the image sensor 512 is disposed at a corner where the dotted lines 582 and 584 intersect, and the image sensor 532 is disposed at a corner where the dotted lines 582 and 586 intersect. That is to say, the image sensors 512 and 532 are disposed at two different corners of the touch area 590.

FIG. 8 is a side perspective view of the image sensing module 510. In FIG. 8, the symbols are the same as those in FIGS. 5 and 7, and the symbol 802 is represented as a real working surface. As shown in FIG. 8, the image capturing surface 512A of the image sensor 512 and the bottom surface 5101A of the housing 5101 exhibit a predetermined angle θ1, and the predetermined angle θ1 is 90 degrees. In addition, the infrared light filtering device 514, the optical lens group 516, the infrared light emitting device 518 (not shown) and the optical lens 520 (not shown) are also disposed along the predetermined angle θ 1 . Since the predetermined angle θ 1 is 90 degrees, the field of view of the image sensor 512 is theoretically infinite, that is, the depth of field of the image sensed by the image sensor 512 is theoretically infinity. However, the actual situation depends on the physical limitations of the environment and the components themselves. In addition, if the infrared light emitted by the infrared light emitting device 518 can cover the field of view of the image sensor 512, when the object 502 enters the infrared light irradiation range, the infrared light can be reflected to make the image sensor 512 feel. Measurement.

Similarly, the image sensor 532 and the infrared light filter in the image sensing module 530 The optical device 534, the optical lens group 536, the infrared light emitting device 538, and the optical lens 540 are also disposed in the manner shown in FIG.

Please refer to Figure 7 again. In this example, the processing circuit 570 is disposed in the housing 5101 of the image sensing module 510 and electrically coupled to the communication interface 560, the image sensor 512, and the image sensor 532. Therefore, when the object 502 is located in the touch area 590, the image sensors 512 and 532 can obtain the image after the object 502 reflects the infrared light, and directly transmit the image data to the processing circuit 570, or the image sensor. 512 and 532 can also perform pre-processing on the image data to obtain characteristic data of the image (such as the area, aspect ratio, boundary, color, brightness and other parameters of the object image), and then transmit it to the processing circuit 570 to reduce the processing circuit. The load of 570, and the processing circuit 570 calculates the coordinates of the object 502 based on the characteristics of the image data or images. After the coordinates of the object 502 are obtained, the processing circuit 570 can output the coordinates to an electronic device through the communication interface 560, for example, to a notebook computer, so that the electronic device can perform further operations according to the coordinates. The method for obtaining the object coordinates will be further described below.

FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram of a single touch of the portable optical touch system shown in FIG. 7. FIG. In FIG. 9, the same symbols as those in FIG. 7 are denoted by the same members. Further, the point A is indicated as the set position of the image sensor 512, and the point B is indicated as the set position of the image sensor 532. As shown in FIG. 9, when the object 502 is located in the touch area 590, the image sensor 512 can sense the object 502 along the sensing route 902, and the image sensor 532 can follow the sensing route 904. The object 502 is sensed. Therefore, as long as the processing circuit 570 can respectively obtain the linear equations of the sensing routes 902 and 904 according to the images sensed by the image sensors 512 and 532, the intersection of the two sensing routes can be further calculated, thereby obtaining the object. The coordinates of 502. The following will further explain how the processing circuit 570 obtains the linear equations of the two sensing routes based on the images sensed by the two image sensors.

10 is a schematic diagram of processing circuit 570 receiving image data of two image sensors 512 and 532 and subsequent processing. In FIG. 10, reference numeral 1010 denotes an image sensed by the image sensor 512, and reference numeral 1012 denotes that the object 502 reflects infrared light to form a bright zone on the image 1010, and symbols 1014 and 1016 respectively. The left edge and the right edge of the bright area 1012 are indicated, and the symbol 1018 is represented as the center, the gravity, or the mean or average of the bright area 1012 (ie, the object image). Symbols 1014, 1016, and 1018 are characteristic data about object 502 in image 1010.

Similarly, symbol 1020 represents the image sensed by image sensor 532, symbol 1022 indicates that object 502 reflects infrared light and bright area is formed on image 1020, and symbols 1024 and 1026 represent the left of bright area 1022, respectively. The edge and the right edge, and symbol 1028 is represented as the center, center of gravity, or average of the bright region 1022 (ie, the image of the object). Symbols 1024, 1026, and 1028 are characteristic data about object 502 in image 1020. In addition, other characteristics of the object 502, such as the area, aspect ratio, boundary, color, brightness, and the like of the object image, may also be processed by the processing circuit 570 or by the image sensors 512, 532. Set processing. In this embodiment, the processing data is obtained by the processing circuit 570.

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the position and corresponding angle of the object in the image sensed by the image sensor 512. In the above, after receiving the image 1010, the processing circuit 570 can calculate the center, the center of gravity or the average value of the bright area 1012, that is, the position of the object 502 in the image 1010. Referring to FIG. 9 , FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 , in order to find the angle α 1 between the dotted line 582 and the sensing path 902 , the image 1010 can be equally divided into several equal parts, for example, nine equal parts. Each aliquot represents an angle of 1 degree, so the image The right boundary of 1010 is an angle of 0 degrees, and the left boundary is an angle of 90 degrees. When the center, center of gravity, or average of the object falls within the image 1010, the angle α 1 represented by the position is corresponding. For example, 1018A represents an angle α 1 of 45 degrees, 1018B represents an angle α 1 of 30 degrees, and 1018C represents an angle α 1 of 75 degrees. If there is no corresponding integer value of the integer, it can be calculated by interpolation. The same method can also find the angle β 1 .

Referring to FIG. 9, the known line point coordinate value and the angle α1 can be used to obtain the line equation of the sensing line 902 by using the point-slope form. Similarly, the point value of the point B can also be utilized. And the angle β 1 finds the straight line equation of the sensing route 904. Therefore, the processing circuit 570 can calculate the intersection of the two sensing routes, and then determine the coordinates of the object 502. This method of calculating the coordinates of an object is the so-called two-line intersection method. In addition, the portable optical touch system 500 can also use other methods, such as a trigonometric function method, to calculate the coordinates of the object 502. Since this method has been widely used in conventional optical touch systems, it is no longer used here. Narration. In addition, with the above teachings, those skilled in the art will recognize that the portable optical touch system 500 can also be used in multi-touch. In addition, in addition to the object 502 to be tested in the field of view of the image sensors 512 and 532, other objects may exist in the far field of view, and these objects may also reflect infrared rays and interfere with the touch operation of the optical touch system 500. Therefore, the brightness of the light reflected by the object can be used for screening. For example, but not limited to, the processing circuit 570 can preset a brightness threshold or a brightness range, and each pixel in the image captured by the image sensors 512 and 532 (pixel) The brightness value is detected and screened. If the brightness value of a pixel exceeds a preset brightness threshold or falls within a preset brightness range, the brightness value of the pixel conforms to a preset standard. In this way, the brightness values of each pixel in the image are sequentially filtered, and other objects than the object to be tested 502 can be filtered out.

It is worth mentioning that in the actual design, the aforementioned infrared light emitting devices 518 and 538 can be implemented by using at least one infrared light emitting diode (IR LED); and the aforementioned infrared light filtering devices 514 and 534 It can be realized by an IR-pass filter. The infrared light emitted by the infrared light emitting diode has a wavelength of about 800 nm to 960 nm, and is generally an infrared light emitting diode having a wavelength of 850 nm using infrared light. In addition, since the viewing angle of the general image sensor is 30 to 45 degrees, the number of optical lenses in the optical lens groups 516 and 536 is appropriate when the viewing angle of the visual image sensor and the viewing angle of each optical lens can be increased. the design of. In this example, the processing circuit 570 is disposed in the housing 5101 of the image sensing module 510, and the communication interface 560 is disposed on the housing 5101 of the image sensing module 510. For example, it is not intended to limit the configuration locations of the processing circuit 570 and the communication interface 560. In addition, the surface of the object 502 may additionally use a reflective material to enhance the reflective effect. In addition, the communication interface 560 can also be a wireless communication interface, such as a Bluetooth wireless transmission interface, a Wireless Universal Serial Bus (Wireless USB) interface, or an Ultra Wide Band (UWB) wireless device. interface. Even the communication interface 560 can employ a variety of wired communication interfaces and a variety of wireless communication interfaces.

From the above description, it can be seen that the range of the touch area 590 can theoretically reach infinity. However, the size of the touch area 590 can still be limited by software. Referring again to FIG. 9, in the touch region 590, the length of the side formed by the broken line 582 is known, and the lengths of the two sides formed by the broken lines 584 and 586 are theoretically infinitely long. In order to make the lengths of the two sides formed by the dashed lines 584 and 586 a predetermined length, the processing circuit 570 can define different touch ranges depending on different applications. For example, when the optical touch system 500 is used as a virtual mouse, the touch area 590 in front of the image sensing modules 510 and 530 is large. Small can be defined according to the user's operating habits of the physical mouse, for example, a touch range defined by a size of 15 cm × 15 cm (ie, the length of the dotted line 582 × the length of the dotted line 584). Alternatively, the processing circuit 570 can define the predetermined length of the dotted lines 584 and 586 by the relationship between the size and the distance of the object image, and can also define the predetermined length by the brightness of the reflected light of the object image, or combine the two types. The way to define the predetermined length of dashed lines 584 and 586 in real time and to define the manner is built into the software or firmware employed by processing circuit 570. In this way, the touch area 590 can exhibit a quadrilateral touch range having a predetermined area size.

In the above, in the case that the touch area 590 has a predetermined area size, the processing circuit 570 may first calculate the coordinates of the object 502, and then determine whether the object 502 is located in the touch area 590. When the object 502 is located in the touch area 590, the processing circuit 570 outputs the coordinates of the object 502 through the communication interface 560. Of course, the processing circuit 570 may first calculate the coordinates of the object 502, and output the coordinates of the object 502 to the electronic device through the communication interface 560, so that the electronic device can determine whether the object 502 is located in the touch area 590. Then decide whether to use it.

Second embodiment:

This example mainly illustrates that the portable optical touch system 500 can be limited by hardware so that the fields of view of the image sensors 512 and 532 can be changed from infinity to a finite distance, as shown in FIG.

FIG. 12 illustrates another arrangement of internal components of the image sensing module 510. In FIG. 12, the same symbols as those in FIG. 5 are denoted by the same members. As shown in FIG. 12, the image capturing surface 512A of the image sensor 512 and the bottom surface 5101A of the housing 5101 exhibit a predetermined angle θ 3 , and the predetermined angle θ 3 is less than 90 degrees. In addition, an infrared light filtering device 514, The optical lens set 516, the infrared light emitting device 518 (not shown) and the optical lens 520 (not shown) are also disposed along the predetermined angle θ 3 . The infrared light emitting device 518 and the optical lens 520 are disposed in such a manner that the traveling direction of the infrared light can be substantially parallel to the real work surface 802. Since the predetermined angle θ 3 is less than 90 degrees, the field of view of the image sensor 512 is a finite distance. That is to say, the depth of field of the image sensed by the image sensor 512 is a finite distance.

Similarly, the image sensor 532, the infrared light filtering device 534, the optical lens group 536, the infrared light emitting device 538, and the optical lens 540 in the image sensing module 530 are also disposed in the manner shown in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 9 again, since the fields of view of the image sensors 512 and 532 are changed from infinity to a finite distance, it can be seen that in the touch region 590, the lengths of the two sides formed by the broken lines 584 and 586 are in accordance with the image. The farthest field of view that sensors 512 and 532 can sense is defined. The farthest field of view that the image sensor can sense can be calculated by referring to the manner shown in FIG. In FIG. 13, D represents the farthest field of view that can be sensed by image sensor 512 (ie, the length of dashed line 584 or 586), H is the height of image sensor 512, and θ 2 is represented as an angle. The relationship between D, H, and θ 2 is represented by the formula D = H / tan (θ 2) in the figure, and θ 3 (see Fig. 12) plus θ 2 is an angle of 90 degrees. For example, if H is 5 mm and θ 2 is an angle of 1.91 degrees, then D is calculated by the formula to be H/tan (θ 2), which is about 150 mm.

Third embodiment:

The second portion 51012 is for connecting the length adjustable connection device 550, and the second portion 51012 is rotatable relative to the first portion 51011.

Since the length adjustable connecting device 550 is connected to the second portion 51012, the housing 5301 of the image sensing module 530 is connected to the length adjustable connecting device 550, so when the second portion 51012 is rotated relative to the first portion 51011, the length The adjustable connection device 550 and the image sensing module 530 also rotate at the same angle.

The other end of the connecting device 550 can be adjusted. Of course, the sensing ranges of the image sensors 512 and 532 still need to partially overlap, so that the partially overlapped area can be used to define a touch area. The communication interface 560 and the processing circuit 570 can be arbitrarily set, and the processing circuit 570 can be electrically connected to the communication interface 560, the image sensor 512, and the image sensor 532.

It is worth mentioning that in this example, the visual fields of the image sensors 512 and 532 are theoretically infinite.
