Description

行车记录器及其操作方法Driving recorder and its operation method

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种摄像装置,且特别涉及一种行车记录器及其操作方法。The invention relates to an imaging device, and in particular to a driving recorder and an operating method thereof.

背景技术Background technique

已知行车记录器通常只有记录单一视角的图像画面。若欲记录不同视角的图像画面,需要在行车记录器中配置多个摄像模块(多组镜头与多个图像传感器)。举例来说,若欲同时记录远视角图像画面与近视角图像画面,则需要在行车记录器中配置一个望远摄像模块与一个广角摄像模块。望远摄像模块具有一组望远镜头(Tele Lens)与一个图像传感器,可以用来拍摄望远图像(Tele image)。广角摄像模块具有一组广角镜头(Wide Lens)与另一个图像传感器,可以用来拍摄广角图像(Wide image)。无论如何,此设计需使用两组镜头及两个图像感应器,因而增加了成本。Known driving recorders generally only record images from a single viewing angle. To record images from different angles of view, multiple camera modules (multiple sets of lenses and multiple image sensors) need to be configured in the driving recorder. For example, if it is desired to record a far-angle image frame and a close-angle image frame at the same time, it is necessary to configure a telephoto camera module and a wide-angle camera module in the driving recorder. The telephoto camera module has a set of telephoto lenses (Tele Lens) and an image sensor, which can be used to capture telephoto images (Tele image). The wide-angle camera module has a set of wide-angle lenses (Wide Lens) and another image sensor, which can be used to capture wide-angle images (Wide image). In any case, this design requires two sets of lenses and two image sensors, thus increasing the cost.

The driving recorder 100 includes a camera module 110 , a plurality of image processing circuits 120 and a database 130 . In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the image processing circuit 120 includes a first image processing circuit 120_1 , a second image processing circuit 120_2 and a third image processing circuit 120_3 . In some embodiments, the first image processing circuit 120_1 , the second image processing circuit 120_2 and the third image processing circuit 120_3 may be integrated into the same integrated circuit. In other embodiments, the first image processing circuit 120_1 , the second image processing circuit 120_2 and/or the third image processing circuit 120_3 may be implemented as different integrated circuits. In any case, the number of image processing circuits 120 can be determined according to design requirements. For example, in some embodiments, there are two image processing circuits 120 . In other embodiments, the number of image processing circuits 120 is four or more.

摄像模块110可以拍摄景物,并输出原图像画面111。第一图像处理电路120_1耦接至摄像模块110以接收原图像画面111。第一图像处理电路120_1可以依据原图像画面111的部分或全部而产生第一图像画面140_1,并将第一图像画面140_1记录于数据库130。第二图像处理电路120_2耦接至摄像模块110以接收原图像画面111。第二图像处理电路120_2可以依据原图像画面111的部分或全部而产生第二图像画面140_2,并将第二图像画面140_2记录于数据库130,其中第二图像画面140_2的视角不同于第一图像画面140_1的视角。第三图像处理电路120_3耦接至摄像模块110以接收原图像画面111。第三图像处理电路120_3可以依据原图像画面111的部分或全部而产生第三图像画面140_3,并将第三图像画面140_3记录于数据库130,其中第三图像画面140_3的视角不同于第一图像画面140_1的视角与第二图像画面140_2的视角。The camera module 110 can capture a scene and output an original image frame 111 . The first image processing circuit 120_1 is coupled to the camera module 110 to receive the original image frame 111 . The first image processing circuit 120_1 can generate the first image frame 140_1 according to part or all of the original image frame 111 , and record the first image frame 140_1 in the database 130 . The second image processing circuit 120_2 is coupled to the camera module 110 to receive the original image frame 111 . The second image processing circuit 120_2 can generate the second image frame 140_2 according to part or all of the original image frame 111, and record the second image frame 140_2 in the database 130, wherein the viewing angle of the second image frame 140_2 is different from that of the first image frame 140_1 viewing angle. The third image processing circuit 120_3 is coupled to the camera module 110 to receive the original image frame 111 . The third image processing circuit 120_3 can generate the third image frame 140_3 according to part or all of the original image frame 111, and record the third image frame 140_3 in the database 130, wherein the angle of view of the third image frame 140_3 is different from that of the first image frame The viewing angle of 140_1 and the viewing angle of the second image frame 140_2.

在一些实施例中,图像处理电路120_1、120_2和/或120_3可以具有图像缩放(scaling)功能,以便调整图像画面140_1、140_2和/或140_3的解析度。因此,原图像画面111的解析度可能小于图像画面140_1、140_2和/或140_3的解析度。In some embodiments, the image processing circuits 120_1 , 120_2 and/or 120_3 may have an image scaling function to adjust the resolution of the image frames 140_1 , 140_2 and/or 140_3 . Therefore, the resolution of the original image frame 111 may be smaller than the resolution of the image frames 140_1 , 140_2 and/or 140_3 .

在另一些实施例中,基于设计需求或是其他考虑,图像处理电路120_1、120_2和/或120_3可以具有图像剪裁/提取功能,以便从原图像画面111剪裁/提取部分子画面作为图像画面140_1、140_2和/或140_3。因此,原图像画面111的解析度可能大于图像画面140_1、140_2和/或140_3的解析度。In some other embodiments, based on design requirements or other considerations, the image processing circuits 120_1, 120_2 and/or 120_3 may have an image cropping/extracting function, so as to crop/extract part of the sub-picture from the original image picture 111 as the image picture 140_1, 140_2 and/or 140_3. Therefore, the resolution of the original image frame 111 may be greater than the resolution of the image frames 140_1 , 140_2 and/or 140_3 .

在另一些实施例中,原图像画面111可以是广角图像。图像处理电路120_1、120_2与120_3可以从原图像画面111剪裁/提取不同部分分别作为第一子画面、第二子画面与第三子画面。图像处理电路120_1、120_2与120_3可以调整第一子画面、第二子画面与第三子画面的解析度而分别获得图像画面140_1、140_2与140_3。举例来说,但不受限于此,图像画面140_1、140_2与140_3的解析度可以是高解析度(high-definition,HD)、全高解析度(Full-HD)或是其他解析度。In other embodiments, the original image frame 111 may be a wide-angle image. The image processing circuits 120_1 , 120_2 and 120_3 can crop/extract different parts from the original image frame 111 as the first sub-frame, the second sub-frame and the third sub-frame respectively. The image processing circuits 120_1 , 120_2 and 120_3 can adjust the resolutions of the first sub-picture, the second sub-picture and the third sub-picture to obtain the image pictures 140_1 , 140_2 and 140_3 respectively. For example, but not limited thereto, the resolutions of the image frames 140_1 , 140_2 and 140_3 may be high-definition (HD), full-high-definition (Full-HD) or other resolutions.

举例来说,在图像处理电路120_1、120_2与120_3(或更多图像处理电路)通过数据总线存取数据库130时,数据库130与数据总线能提供的带宽资源是有限的。另一方面,数据库130能提供的存储空间亦是有限的。为了能让这些图像处理电路有效共享数据库130所提供的带宽资源和/或存储空间,图像处理电路120_1、120_2与120_3可以从原图像画面111分别剪裁/提取不同部分画面而获得图像画面140_1、140_2与140_3。图像处理电路120_1、120_2与120_3可以分别调整图像画面140_1的解析度、图像画面140_2的解析度与图像画面140_3的解析度,以使图像画面140_1、140_2与140_3的解析度小于原图像画面111的解析度。由于图像画面140_1、140_2与140_3的解析度可以被调降,使得该数据库130所提供的带宽资源得满足将图像画面140_1、140_2与140_3记录于数据库130的带宽需求。因此,图像处理电路120_1、120_2与120_3可以有效共享数据库130所提供的带宽资源和/或存储空间,进而可以即时将图像画面140_1、140_2与140_3存入数据库130中。For example, when the image processing circuits 120_1 , 120_2 and 120_3 (or more image processing circuits) access the database 130 through the data bus, the bandwidth resources that the database 130 and the data bus can provide are limited. On the other hand, the storage space that the database 130 can provide is also limited. In order to allow these image processing circuits to effectively share the bandwidth resources and/or storage space provided by the database 130, the image processing circuits 120_1, 120_2, and 120_3 can respectively cut/extract different parts of the original image frame 111 to obtain the image frames 140_1, 140_2 with 140_3. The image processing circuits 120_1, 120_2, and 120_3 can respectively adjust the resolution of the image frame 140_1, the resolution of the image frame 140_2, and the resolution of the image frame 140_3, so that the resolution of the image frames 140_1, 140_2, and 140_3 is smaller than that of the original image frame 111. resolution. Since the resolutions of the image frames 140_1 , 140_2 , and 140_3 can be lowered, the bandwidth resources provided by the database 130 must meet the bandwidth requirements for recording the image frames 140_1 , 140_2 , and 140_3 in the database 130 . Therefore, the image processing circuits 120_1 , 120_2 and 120_3 can effectively share the bandwidth resources and/or storage space provided by the database 130 , and thus can store the image frames 140_1 , 140_2 and 140_3 in the database 130 in real time.
