Embodiment Construction

[0017] The present invention will be further introduced below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] Such as figure 1 Described is the flowchart of the infrared image automatic focusing method combined with coarse and fine adjustment of the present invention. As can be seen from the figure, the method includes the following steps:

[0019] (1) Control the motor to run to the limit position in one direction of the stroke according to the auto-focus command;

[0020] (2) Control the motor to move from the limit position to the opposite direction with the first set step length, collect one frame of image data for each step, and calculate the clarity of the collected infrared image according to the first set evaluation method Evaluation function value f(n);

[0021] (3) Compare the f(n) corresponding to the images collected at each step, and retain the maximum value of f(n). When f(n) is less than the maximum value for two consecutive ti...

Abstract

The invention discloses a coarse tuning and fine tuning combined infrared image automatic focusing method which is characterized by controlling a motor to operate positively and negatively according to an automatic focusing command; controlling the motor to move to the negative direction with a relatively-large step length from the extreme position; in the moving process, calculating definition evaluation function value in real time; and when the function value reaches maximum value, controlling the motor to move to the negative direction again with a relatively-small step length and calculating definition evaluation function value in real time, and the maximum value place is the clearest imaging place. According to the method, combination of coarse tuning and fine tuning is realized through different motor movement step lengths, and automatic focusing calculation is carried out through two image definition evaluation functions, thereby guaranteeing an infrared imaging system to enable the focal length to be adjusted to the clearest imaging place quickly and realizing the optimum focusing effect; and the method is less in computation burden, high in real-time performance, beneficial to engineering application, and capable of meeting the definition requirement of the infrared imaging system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of image processing, and in particular relates to an infrared image automatic focusing method combining coarse and fine adjustment. Background technique [0002] The quality of a digital image is directly related to its sharpness and contrast. The sharpness of the image contains relatively rich detail information, which is convenient for related processing of the image, such as image segmentation, image understanding and image tracking. The detection method of image clarity is not only an important link to measure the quality of a digital image, but also the basis for realizing the automatic focus of a digital imaging system. [0003] At present, common image sharpness evaluation functions mainly include image histogram method, energy variance method, square gradient energy method, entropy function method, spectral function method, Laplace energy method, Gaussian variance method, squared Gaussian gradient method and L...
