THERMAL IMAGE WARM-TARGET DETECTION AND OUTLINE FORMATION

摘要

An image processing system is provided. The image processing system includes a memory configured to store instructions and a processor disposed in communication with the memory. The processor, upon execution of the instructions is configured to receive an input image output by an imaging sensor, wherein the image sensor is sensitive to thermal emissions. The processor, upon execution of the instructions, is further configured to determine a continuous and monotonic color map for each of at least two color channels of a color scheme system, apply at least one filter to the input image by sliding a moving window through the entire input image and applying the filter to content of the input image at each location of the moving window to generate an outline of a warm target based on the content of the input image, and output a result of the applied at least one filter mapped in accordance with the color maps to a displayable image product.
