23 results about "Acutance" patented technology

In photography, the term "acutance" describes a subjective perception of sharpness that is related to the edge contrast of an image. Acutance is related to the amplitude of the derivative of brightness with respect to space. Due to the nature of the human visual system, an image with higher acutance appears sharper even though an increase in acutance does not increase real resolution.

A method for automatically calibrating the installation deviation of an airborne laser radar based on voxel sharpness

This invention discloses an automatic calibration method for airborne lidar placement deviation based on voxel sharpness. The method includes: selecting a natural calibration site containing building facades, linear markers, and point targets; collecting point cloud and POS data via a UAV flying in multiple headings; modeling the placement deviation to be calibrated using six parameters; optimizing the parameters using a genetic algorithm; using voxel sharpness as the fitness function; voxelizing the point cloud in the region of interest; counting the number of points within each voxel and calculating the sharpness score; a higher sharpness score indicates a more pronounced clustering of point clouds in the feature region; and iteratively optimizing the method through selection, crossover, and mutation operations to output the optimal placement deviation parameters. This invention uses an ordinary basketball court as a natural calibration site, eliminating the need for artificial targets. After calibration, the point cloud sharpness is improved by more than 150%, and the positioning accuracy reaches the centimeter level.

Addressing the problems of flame highlights interfering with atmospheric light estimation and the distortion of transmittance estimation edges due to spatial non-uniform variations in smoke density in fire scenes, this invention introduces a partitioned adaptive atmospheric light estimation method based on collaborative perception of the flame-smoke region within an atmospheric scattering model framework. The image is divided into flame, dense smoke, transition, and sparse smoke regions using color-brightness joint features.
