An Adaptive Technique for the Enhanced Fusion of Low-Light Visible with Uncooled Thermal Infrared Imagery

摘要

A new algorithm is introduced that performs spatiallyadaptive enhancement on low-light visible andinfrared images of the same scene and fusion of theseinto one composite image. The algorithm involves lowpass/high-pass filtering and simple nonlinear operationsthat can be table driven. Examples of the processingon image data collected in field tests are given.
