摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a detection device which does not cause the false detection by receiving laser light from an oncoming car. The pulse laser light modulated with a modulation pattern set every target position is irradiated at the target position from a laser irradiation portion. DSP (Digital Signal Processor) decides that there is an obstacle at the target position only when the modulation pattern of the pulse laser light emitted from the laser emitting portion matches with the modulation pattern of the pulse laser light received by the laser receiving portion. It is suppressed that the detection device misdetects the conditions of the target position when receiving laser light from an oncoming car or the like because modulation pattern of laser light from own does not match with modulation pattern of laser light from the oncoming car or the like.

摘要:
A detection device detects an obstacle within a target region by setting the target region, setting a scan trajectory, and setting a pattern of an irradiation position of a laser beam within the target region based on a signal related to a moving state of the detection device or a moving object on which the detection device is mounted.
摘要:
A scan trajectory of a laser beam is controlled based on external signals each related to a driving direction and a driving speed, a result obtained by detection of an obstacle, and signals related to distances to the obstacle. For example, at the time of a right turn, a scan trajectory for increasing scan frequency on a portion shifted in a right-turn direction from a center axis in a driving direction is set. At the time of high-speed driving, a scan trajectory for increasing scan frequency on a center portion in the driving direction is set. When the obstacle is detected at a position corresponding to a distance shorter than a threshold distance, a scan trajectory for increasing scan frequency in the vicinity of the obstacle is set. Detection of the obstacle and monitoring of a state thereof are adequately and smoothly performed at the time of changing of the driving direction, the time of high-speed driving, and the time of detection of the obstacle.

In order to reproduce signals from a double-layer optical disc having two signal recording surfaces, a focus jump that the focusing of an objective lens from the one signal recording surface to the other signal recording surface is quickly achieved, is necessary. When a focus error signal (FE) from a pickup (60, 70) reaches a predetermined threshold value (Vcomp), a deceleration signal for decelerating the objective lens (42) is supplied to an actuator (47). Preferably, a deceleration pulse voltage is lowered step by step. The deceleration pulse voltage is determined in accordance with the maximum value (DFEmax) of a differential focus error signal (DFE) generated by differentiating the focus error signal (FE). Preferably, the address seeking is done simultaneously with the focus jump. The focus jump is performed in accordance with the layer-to-layer distance which is measured beforehand. The focus jump is performed by using a lens (143) having a controllable focal distance. Preferably, whether the layer is the first layer or the second layer is judged based on the reflected luminous power. If the focus error signal (FE) from the other layer is not obtained even when a certain time passages after the focus jump is started, the objective lens (42) is moved in the reverse direction.

The optical pickup device includes a two wavelength semiconductor laser (23) selectively generating a laser beam having the wavelength of 635 nm and laser beam having the wavelength of 780 nm, a collimator lens (24), a hologram (25) formed on a surface of collimator lens (24), a polarizing glass (22) having an annular polarizing region (40) and an objective lens (21). Hologram (25) does not diffract the laser beam having the wavelength of 635 nm, and diffracts outward the laser beam having the wavelength of 780 nm. Therefore, virtual light source of the laser beam having the wavelength of 780 nm comes closer to the collimator lens (24) than the light source of the laser beam having the wavelength of 635 nm. Therefore, objective lens (21) focuses the laser beam having the wavelength of 635 nm on a recording surface of a transparent substrate (31) of a DVD, and focuses the laser beam having the wavelength of 780 nm on a recording surface of a transparent substrate (32) of a CD-R. Accordingly, the optical pickup device is capable of reproducing both DVD and CD-R having transparent substrates of different thicknesses.

An optical pickup device provides ultraresolving prism between a semiconductor laser and an objective lens so as to reduce light intensity at around a cross sectional center of a laser beam, thereby generating ultraresolution thereon. An optical detector is disposed at a signal detecting position where the laser beam reflected by an optical disk is converged. The optical detector has a detecting element for receiving a main lobe and a pair of detecting elements for receiving a pair of side lobes. A peak of a shielding portion of the prism is inclined to a track center of the optical disk so that the side lobes are oppositely shifted from the track center. Thus, tracking error signals are obtained on the basis of detected signals in the side lobes.
