  • Publication number: 20220260690
    Abstract: Distance measuring is disclosed. In one example, a distance measuring device includes a ToF (time of flight) sensor, a distance calculation unit, a mode switching unit, and an estimation unit. The ToF sensor has a sensor clock that controls a photographing timing. The sensor clock is a device-specific clock different from a light source clock that controls a modulation frequency of a light emission pulse of a light source. The ToF sensor performs photographing by reflecting, on a surface of an object, emission light of the light source that emits pulse light. The distance calculation unit calculates a distance to the object based on image data captured by the ToF sensor. The estimation unit estimates the modulation frequency of the light source generated from the light source clock based on pieces of image data captured in an operation mode switched by the mode switching unit.

  • Publication number: 20210293939
    Abstract: To achieve a configuration of controlling a light source unit having a plurality of light sources and a rangefinder (camera) by individual clocks to allow for setting the light sources at optional positions. The output light of a plurality of light sources of the light source unit is reflected from an object's surface, and a ToF sensor captures the reflected light to calculate the distance to the object. A sensor clock that controls the image capturing timing of the ToF sensor is the clock specific to the rangefinder, which is different from a light source unit clock that controls the light emission timing of the light sources of the light source unit. The rangefinder creates a difference calculation formula of a plurality of distance calculation formulas used to calculate the distance from each light source to the rangefinder to calculate the distance to the object using the created difference calculation formula.
