Method and device for visualization of a detail of a vehicle's environment and calibration unit for calibrating the device

摘要

A night-vision system (100) has a computer-controlled display (CCD) camera (101) to deliver a color picture, an electronic infrared (IR) camera (102) like an IR sensor sensitive within an IR spectral range of 8-10 mum, first (103) and second (104) normalizing devices, an alignment device (105) and an overlaying/fusion device (106). Independent claims are also included for a device for visualizing section around a motor vehicle in darkness and for a calibrating device with a source of rays like a filament lamp for emitting visible rays and infrared rays.
