Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the fixed image noise may have a non-uniformity problem. For example, when the lens and image sensor in the image capture device are poor, the fixed image noise may be asymmetrical, and the fixed image noise may not be symmetrical. It is not limited to left-right or up-down asymmetry. In severe cases, fixed image noise asymmetry will be generated in both up and down and left and right.
[0005] There is an image compensation technology in the prior art, which can be called fixed pattern noise correction (fixed pattern noise correction, FPNC). This grid-based fixed pattern noise correction technology compensates according to the image area. However, the entire image will still have residual fixed image noise

Abstract

An image compensation system for fixed image noise is suitable for a 4-pixel sensor and can automatically calculate appropriate fixed image noise compensation parameters according to asymmetry of the sensor and a lens. Aiming at asymmetric fixed image noise possibly caused by flaws of a sensor or a lens, in a system operation method, an image is firstly segmented into a plurality of grids, pixel average values of channels in the grids are calculated, fixed image noise compensation coefficients of pixels are calculated according to characteristics of forming the image by a 4-pixel sensor, and the compensation coefficient of the current pixel can be obtained through extrapolation and interpolation, so that the fixed image noise in the image can be corrected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention provides an image compensation technology, in particular to an image compensation system for an image sensor that generates fixed image noise. Background technique [0002] A fixed pattern noise (FPN) occurs in the image. One of the reasons is that the digital imaging sensor tends to produce noise with higher brightness relative to the background at the position of a specific pixel under long-time exposure. . Taking photos as an example, even when shooting images of different scenes, noises with different brightness relative to the background will be found in fixed positions in the photos. This type of noise can be divided into two categories: one is dark signal non-uniformity (Dark Signal Non-Uniformity, DSNU), the other is photoresponse non-uniformity (Photo Response Non-Uniformity, PRNU). The dark signal non-uniformity (DSNU) is the fixed image noise (FPN) detected after the lens is blacked out, and the photoresponse non-uniformity (...
