The invention relates to the technical field of mechanical vision light source adjustment, in particular to a linear adjustment method and system for light source brightness.

Background

The mechanical vision system mainly comprises three parts: illumination, lenses and cameras, wherein illumination is an important factor affecting machine vision system input, directly affecting the quality and application effect of input data.

In the industrial field of mechanical visual lighting adjustment, a linear adjustable range with higher requirements on the brightness of a visual light source is generally required. At present, medium and low power light sources can well meet the requirement of field application on the linear adjustable range of light source brightness, and high power light sources, especially light sources with the brightness adjusting linearity and the illumination uniformity of over one kilowatt, are subjected to power supply power, the electrical characteristics of electronic components and light source lamp beads V_fThe characteristics and the temperature of the light source have great influence, so the performance parameters of the light source in the aspect of linear adjustment of the brightness of the light source are inferior to those of light sources with medium and small power, and the design difficulty of the light source in the aspect of linearity is relatively great. After the high-power light source is adjusted to a certain brightness value, the brightness change of the high-power light source is no longer linear, and even sudden brightness change may occur.

In the prior art, there are various solutions to the problem of light source linearity in the high-power mechanical vision system, such as a constant current power supply control method, a switching power supply + digital constant current control method, a digital PWM control + brightness feedback compensation method, etc., where the adjustment of light source linearity controlled by a constant current power supply is a simpler and direct method, but the cost of a high-quality constant current power supply with linearly adjustable light source brightness in a certain range is higher than that of a common switching power supply, and the cost is related to the power of the power supply, and the stability is also reduced with the increase of the power supply power, thereby causing the fluctuation of the light source brightness; the switching power supply and digital constant current control method is adopted more, on one hand, the switching power supply is low in price compared with a constant current power supply, and the stability is better under the condition of high-power output, on the other hand, the digital constant current control module mainly controls the current of the light source to be constant, so that the adverse effect caused by the temperature rise of the light source can be overcome, and the linear adjustment of the brightness of the light source is facilitated; the digital PWM + brightness feedback compensation method has the advantages that the number of electronic components used is relatively small compared with the digital constant current control method, errors caused by the accuracy problem of the electronic components are relatively reduced, the cost is further reduced, the digital PWM mode can achieve the purpose of linear adjustment of the brightness of the light source from a zero point to the maximum output range under the condition of feedback compensation, the brightness feedback module is adopted for compensating the brightness, the linearity of brightness adjustment can be compensated, the influence of temperature change on the adjustment can be compensated, however, the installation position and compensation parameters of the brightness feedback module in the method are influenced by the illumination uniformity of the light source, and the design difficulty of the light source is directly increased. And the digital PWM brightness control mode mainly realizes brightness adjustment by adjusting the duty ratio under a fixed PWM frequency, namely the brightness is controlled by adjusting the time for turning on and off the light source, but under a single PWM frequency, the linear adjustment area is narrow, and the full-range linear adjustment cannot be met.

There is a need for a linear adjustment method of high-power light source brightness with low cost and fast response speed to meet the requirement of linear adjustment of light source brightness in mechanical vision application.

The process of determining the target slope curve c0 specifically includes:

s11: selecting an adjustable range of the PWM frequency according to actual requirements, and quantizing the adjustment grade of the PWM frequency in the adjustable range; in one embodiment, the adjustable range of the PWM frequency of a high-power light source is 50 KHz-150 KHz, and within the adjustable range of 50 KHz-150 KHz, the quantized PWM frequency is in three levels, namely 50KHz, 100KHz and 150KHz, wherein the finer the quantized level is, the better the adjustment result of the linearity is.

S12: measuring a plurality of brightness curves of the light source from 0-100% under different quantization levels of PWM frequency; namely, three luminance curves corresponding to the light source from 0 to 100% under the three quantization levels of 50KHz, 100KHz and 150KHz of the PWM frequency in step S11 are actually measured, as shown in fig. 1.

S20: according to the target slope curve c0 and the actually measured brightness curve slope k under different duty ratios₁Adjusting the PWM frequency; it is mainly based on the actually measured slope k of the brightness curve under different duty ratios₁And target slope k₀The PWM frequency is adjusted by comparing the magnitude relation of the PWM frequency and the PWM frequency. Wherein, if the adjustment quantity of PWM frequency is A, the adjustment quantity A is obtainedThe body includes:

And further, the PWM mixed frequency and the PWM duty ratio regulation output value are output together through a PWM output module to obtain a PWM output signal, and the PWM output signal is transmitted to the high-power light source through the high-power driving module. Based on the fact that the brightness linearity of the light source is adjusted by utilizing the digital PWM duty ratio under the single PWM frequency, the slope of the brightness curve of the high-power light source is corrected by introducing the method for controlling the PWM frequency, so that the adjustment of the PWM duty ratio can be realized, meanwhile, the adjustment of the PWM frequency can be realized, under the combined action of the PWM duty ratio and the PWM frequency, the adjustment is carried out to the corresponding target value, the actually output brightness value is more close to the target slope curve, and the linear adjustment of the brightness in the full range is realized, and fig. 5 is a step block diagram of the method for realizing the linear adjustment of the brightness of the light source by combining the.
