Embodiment Construction

[0035] The following takes a certain type of infrared tracking system as an example, combined with the accompanying drawings, to introduce the algorithm flow in detail. Infrared tracking systems use staring infrared cameras to acquire infrared images. The frame rate of the staring thermal imaging camera is 50Hz, and the image resolution is 320×240. The image is transmitted to the special image processing board through the optical fiber to complete the real-time target tracking processing of the infrared image. The special image processing board adopts DSP+FPGA design, and the algorithm is reasonably distributed to two processors to meet the needs of real-time processing.

[0036] Step 1, image preprocessing, input the infrared image, perform enhancement processing on the image, and output the enhanced image.

[0037]The Laplace operator is an isotropic second-order differential filter. The Laplace transform of a two-dimensional image I(x, y) is defined as:

Abstract

The invention discloses a real-time infrared image target tracking method which comprises the following steps of: inputting an infrared image, carrying out strengthening treatment on the image and outputting a strengthened image; inputting n image templates and respectively carrying out correlation matching on the n image templates in a wave door area to obtain n correlation values and correlation matching positions, wherein n is a natural number which is larger than 1; updating n template images according to the correlation values and the correlation matching positions, deciding the final target matching position of the frame by combining the n correlation values, the n target matching positions and tracking calculation information and outputting a target matching position; maintaining the estimation on a target tracking state by utilizing a Kalman filter according to the target matching position and outputting a tracking wave door area; and inputting a new frame of image and returning to the first step. The invention has the advantages of strengthening the edge and detail information of an infrared image by using a sharpening filter, improving the definition of the infrared image and being beneficial to improving the target tracking stability by a plurality of templates.
