Real-Time Fused Color Imagery from Two-Color Midwave HgCdTe IRFPAS

Abstract

Real time display of color imagery has been demonstrated using a two-color midwave HgCdTe IRFPA built by Raytheon SBRC. A variety of algorithms were implemented using a real time image processor (TI C80) on a PC based frame grabber board. Statistically based scaling, de-correlation, spectral band differencing, and histogram equalization have been applied using the red-cyan color space representation of the imagery.
