Benefits of technology

This technology helps combine two images together: one uses IR imagery while another focuses on visual ones like thermal radar (infrared). It allows us to see how well things look at different temperatures from each other without having them mixed up or blended overly. By combining these two types of data into a single picture we aimed towards improving our understanding of scenes' heat distribution and their impact upon various systems such as fire detection systems.

Problems solved by technology

Technics Problem addressed in this patents include improving both visualization capabilities and depth perception during remote sensor imager systems. Current methods involve combining two types of data - either one uses IR or another type of electromagnetic waves like X rays to create special effects called thermal emission patterns, while avoiding interferes caused by other sources like background lights. Additionally, current techniques require expensive equipment and complex procedures involving multiple steps.

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-scale and multi-hierarchy method for fusing a visible light full-color image and an infrared remote sensing image, which is used for fusing the visible light full-color image and the infrared remote sensing image acquired from an aerospace aviation sensor platform. According to the method, a pseudo-color image of an infrared image is obtained by temperature retrieval of the infrared image, and then the detail information of a visible image is fused into an infrared retrieval image by utilizing a multi-scale and multi-hierarchy image fusion method. The method comprises two parts, firstly, temperature retrieval is carried out on the infrared remote sensing image to obtain the infrared pseudo-color image; and secondly, the infrared pseudo-color image and the visible image are fused by means of multi-scale analysis of the image. By using the method provided by the invention, the fused image can not only reflect the temperature information of an infrared image scene, but also reflect the temperature information of a specific target.
