[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 11/14] ipa: raspberrypi: First version of autofocus algorithm using PDAF

Naushir Patuck naush at raspberrypi.com
Mon Jan 23 16:49:31 CET 2023


From: Nick Hollinghurst <nick.hollinghurst at raspberrypi.com>

Provide the first version of the Raspberry Pi autofocus algorithm. This
implementation uses a hybrid of contrast detect autofocus (CDAF) and phase
detect autofocus (PDAF) statistics. PDAF is always preferred over CDAF due to
having less "hunting" behavior.

+ * This algorithm implements a hybrid of CDAF and PDAF, favouring PDAF.
+ *
+ * Whenever PDAF is available, it is used in a continuous feedback loop.
+ * When triggered in auto mode, we simply enable AF for a limited number
+ * of frames (it may terminate early if the delta becomes small enough).
+ *
+ * When PDAF confidence is low (due e.g. to low contrast or extreme defocus)
+ * or PDAF data are absent, fall back to CDAF with a programmed scan pattern.
+ * A coarse and fine scan are performed, using ISP's CDAF focus FoM to
+ * estimate the lens position with peak contrast. This is slower due to
+ * extra latency in the ISP, and requires a settling time between steps.
+ *
+ * Some hysteresis is applied to the switch between PDAF and CDAF, to avoid
+ * "nuisance" scans. During each interval where PDAF is not working, only
+ * ONE scan will be performed; CAF cannot track objects using CDAF alone.
+ *
+ * This algorithm is unrelated to "rpi.focus" which merely reports CDAF FoM.
