CONTINUOUS EXTENDED RANGE IMAGE PROCESSING

摘要

Methods and systems for image processing are provided. A method for processing images of a scene includes receiving image data of a reference and a current frame; generating N motion vectors that describe motion of the image data within the scene by computing a correlation function on the reference and current frames at each of N registration points; registering the current frame based on the N motion vectors to produce a registered current frame; and updating the image data of the scene based on the registered current frame. Optionally, registered frames may be oversampled. Techniques for generating the N motion vectors according to roll, zoom, shift and optical flow calculations, updating the image data of the scene according to switched and intermediate integration approaches, re-introducing smoothed motion into the image data of the scene, re-initializing the process, and processing images of a scene and a moving target within the scene are provided.
