In step S55, respectively at least one rate of rise and an at least one descending slope and a threshold value are compared, to confirm whether in this echo signal 81 be an object signal.If the absolute value of the absolute value of this at least one rate of rise and this at least one descending slope during greater than this threshold value, then can be regarded as the object signal that an object is produced with this echo signal.Afterwards, can be at coordinate according to the corresponding object of the position calculation of this object signal.
Generally speaking, object can produce the pattern that brightness and background luminance have notable difference on the application drawing picture when sensing region.When application drawing looks like to convert to brightness waveform Fig. 8, on brightness waveform Fig. 8, have tangible mask signal of drop or heliogram.Principle when obtaining a brightness waveform Fig. 8, just can therefrom be found out and have the tangible signal of drop on brightness waveform Fig. 8, to determine the object position in view of the above.With reference to shown in Figure 8, in the present embodiment, comprise the less mask signal of a drop 82 on brightness waveform Fig. 8.Likewise, shown in figure 11, can select wantonlyly 2: 8211 and 8212 in the part that comprises rising edge 821, and calculate through this straight line 822 of 2: 8211 and 8212, to obtain a rate of rise.Also can select wantonlyly 2: 8213 and 8214 in the part that comprises drop edge 823, and calculate through this straight line 823 of 2: 8211 and 8212, to obtain a descending slope.Because the signal drop of mask signal 82 is little, so the absolute value of the rate of rise and descending slope is little, so can a threshold value be standard, filters out the little mask signal of this type of signal drop 82, to avoid erroneous judgement.
In one embodiment, if brightness waveform figure has a signal, the absolute value of its rate of rise and descending slope is less than a threshold value, and the new background image of optical touch system desirable at this moment is to replace original background image.
Fig. 6 is a process flow diagram, and it shows the step of image processing method of a kind of optical touch system of another embodiment of the present invention.With reference to Fig. 6, Fig. 8 and shown in Figure 12, in step S61, sensor extracts a background image.
In step S62, according to this background image, produce a background luminance oscillogram 9 of representing this background image, shown in figure 12.
In step S63, sensor extracts an application drawing picture.
In step S64, according to this application drawing picture, produce brightness waveform Fig. 8 who represents this application drawing picture, as shown in Figure 8.
In one embodiment; Brightness waveform Fig. 8 and background luminance oscillogram 9 are respectively with the added luminance of all pixels of each row of this application drawing picture and this background image or each row, the column or row direction intensity map of being obtained along this application drawing picture and this background image.In another embodiment, application drawing picture and background image subtract each other, and also can obtain the brightness waveform figure that represents each row or each row monochrome information.
In step S65, as shown in Figure 8, according to the monochrome information of the brightness waveform figure of Fig. 8, select an echo signal 81.Though in the present embodiment, this echo signal 81 is a mask signal, and the present invention is not as limit.
In step S66, calculate one first monochrome information of echo signal 81.In one embodiment, first monochrome information is the brightness summation of echo signal 81.In another embodiment, first monochrome information (I1) is that the brightness of echo signal 81 is average.
In step S67, calculate on this background luminance oscillogram 9 second monochrome information (I2) of a background signal 81 ' (Figure 12) of corresponding echo signal 81.In one embodiment, monochrome information be background signal 81 ' the brightness summation.In another embodiment, monochrome information be background signal 81 ' brightness average.
In step S68, calculate the ratio (I2/I1) of second monochrome information (I2) and first monochrome information (I1).
In step S69, relatively whether this ratio (I2/I1) and a threshold value are the object signal with decision echo signal 81.Therefore in the present embodiment, object produces occlusion image on sensor, and when ratio (I2/I1) during greater than a threshold value, 81 of echo signals can be considered the object signal by the object generation.
The spy's, with reference to Fig. 8 and shown in Figure 12,, then can calculate ratio less than threshold value if select mask signal 82 and its corresponding background signal 82 ' (Figure 12).Because ratio less than threshold value, does not produce so mask signal 82 can not be regarded as by an object.In one embodiment; In the brightness waveform figure that the application drawing picture is produced, comprise an echo signal; Ratio between the monochrome information of its monochrome information and corresponding background signal is during less than threshold value, and the optical touch system can extract a new background image, with new and old background image.
In one embodiment, if the optical touch system be design on sensor, to produce the object reflected image, then when ratio during less than a threshold value, echo signal can be considered the object signal by the object generation.Relatively, ratio is during greater than a threshold value, and echo signal then possibly be glitch.
Fig. 7 is a process flow diagram, and it shows the step of the image processing method of one embodiment of the invention.With reference to Fig. 8, Figure 12 and shown in Figure 13, in step S71, at first extract a background image.In step S72, produce shown in the background luminance oscillogram (shown in figure 10) of representing this background image.In step S73, extract an application drawing picture.In step S74, produce a brightness waveform figure (as shown in Figure 8) who represents this application drawing picture.
In step S75, on brightness waveform figure, select one first echo signal 81 and one second echo signal 83.First echo signal 81 and one second echo signal 83 are that luminance difference is significantly regional between application drawing picture and background image.In one embodiment, the selection of first echo signal 81 and one second echo signal 83 can be subtracted each other application drawing picture and background image, obtains the luminance difference distribution plan, on the luminance difference distribution plan, selects significantly zone of luminance difference then.
In step S76, calculate one first monochrome information of first echo signal.In step S77, calculate one second monochrome information of second echo signal.
In step S78, calculate on background image the 3rd monochrome information of a background signal of corresponding first echo signal.
In step S79, calculate on background image the 4th monochrome information of a background signal of corresponding second echo signal.
In step S80, if this first monochrome information during less than the 4th monochrome information, simultaneously has mask signal and reflected signal on the expression brightness waveform figure greater than the 3rd monochrome information and this second monochrome information.Usually; Therefore should not have mask signal and reflected signal simultaneously on the brightness waveform figure, when mask signal and reflected signal existed simultaneously, the expression application drawing looked like to have an assorted some interference; May influence object Coordinate Calculation correctness, so need get a new application drawing picture.
In one embodiment, if this first monochrome information during less than the 4th monochrome information, is then upgraded this background image greater than the 3rd monochrome information and this second monochrome information.Under the part situation, having mask signal and reflected signal on the brightness waveform figure simultaneously possibly be that the background luminance distribution changes.At this moment, can background image updating, overcome this abnormal results.
The application's technology contents and technical characterstic disclose as above, yet those skilled in the art still maybe be based on the application's enlightenment and announcements and done all replacement and modifications that does not deviate from this announcement spirit.Therefore, the application's protection domain should be not limited to embodiment and disclose, and should comprise various replacement and the modifications that do not deviate from this announcement, and is contained by claim whether.
