Embodiment Construction

[0021] A method for self-adapting high dynamic range of an infrared thermal imager includes the following steps:

[0022] S1: Parameter collection; use high-precision area source blackbody 2 as a standard reference source, and use a cooling staring infrared thermal imager 1 for normal imaging and output digital video. High-precision area source blackbody 2 temperature can be adjusted, cooling type staring infrared thermal imager 1 integration time can be switched among multiple settings, the upper computer 3 processing program can store the current image image gray average value and central area average value in real time , So as to obtain the original data corresponding to the gray value response of the digital image under different external radiation conditions and different integration times.

[0023] S2: Data processing; firstly, establish the relationship between the response of the refrigerated staring infrared thermal imager 1 and the external radiation under different integ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a high dynamic range adaptive adjustment method for an infrared thermal imager. The method comprises a first step of parameter acquisition in which a high accuracy area sourceblackbody is used as a standard reference source, a refrigeration-type staring infrared thermal imager is used for normal imaging and a digital video is outputted, the temperature of the high accuracyarea source blackbody is adjustable, and the integration time of the refrigeration-type staring infrared thermal imager can be switched among multiple stages of set values, a second step of data processing in which the relationship between a response and external radiation under different integration time of the refrigeration-type staring infrared thermal imager is firstly built, and then, an integration time switching logic and a threshold are designed, a third step of multi-section two-point calibration in which the area source blackbody is used to offline use a general two-point calibration algorithm to calculate and obtain a correction gain value and an offset value under different integration time stages, and a fourth step of real-time optimization in which the integration time switching logic and the threshold algorithm in the second step form a program in a programmable FPGA hardware development mode and are solidified into an imaging circuit.

Description

Technical field [0001] The technology belongs to the field of adaptive adjustment, and specifically relates to an adaptive adjustment method for a high dynamic range of an infrared thermal imager. Background technique [0002] Infrared imaging technology is a technology that converts the difference in infrared radiation generated by the temperature or emissivity of each object surface in the target field of view into a visible image. In the military field, infrared imaging is widely used in the search, sighting, reconnaissance, identification and tracking of military targets; surveillance, warning, early warning and tracking of long-range, medium- and short-range military targets; precision guidance of infrared imaging; weapon platforms Driving and navigation; detecting stealth weapon systems, conducting photoelectric countermeasures, etc. [0003] The energy conversion process involved in infrared imaging detection is: after optical energy is converged by the optical system, it e...
