Abstract

The invention provides an infrared image and low-light-level image fusion system and method. According to the invention, lateral inhibition enhancement processing is performed on an infrared image anda low-light-level image to obtain an IR image and an LLL image, preprocessing is performed on the IR image to obtain a local image T, the LLL image and the T image are weighted and calculated to obtain an LLL' image, the LLL' image is processed to obtain a +LLL' image, the IR image is processed to obtain a -IR image, the -IR image enters a surrounding region of an ON module, the +LLL' enters a central region of the ON module, and a fused image is obtained. The infrared image and low-light-level image fusion system and method adopt a bionic biological vision ON-OFF model, and the infrared image passing through an OFF system and the low-light-level image passing through an ON system are respectively inputted into an inhibition region and an excitement region of the ON system, so that a fused image which conforms to the human eye vision and is clear in target and rich in background detail is obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of image technology, in particular to a system and method for fusing infrared images and low-light images. Background technique [0002] Because the infrared image is the image produced by the radiation of the object itself, it can "actively" obtain the target information in the scene, and can well display the hidden hot target, which is less affected by the lighting conditions and bad weather, but at the same time due to Due to the limitations of the imaging principle, the contrast of the infrared image is low, the spatial correlation is strong, the ability to reflect the target details is relatively poor, and the imaging effect does not conform to the visual habits of the human eye. [0003] Low-light images belong to the category of visible light, especially in low-light conditions. Compared with infrared images, the content information is richer, which can better describe the details of the environment. However, d...
