Step 1, Image semantic classification is carried out to infrared image, while removing the noise on infrared image, increase the contrast of infrared image;
Step 2, utilize watershed algorithm to carry out background segment to pretreated infrared image, the background segment of infrared image is become zones of different, utilizes the distinctive texture information in each region to give corresponding region by the color of correspondence;
Step 3, the object having a higher heat are positioned at the prospect of infrared image, process the prospect of infrared image, the object detection having higher heat is out given the color specifically with warning function by principle afterwards that utilize statistics with histogram to combine with dynamic threshold;
Step 4, background and prospect are all composed coloured colorize infrared image shown by display unit.
Preferably, in described step 2, watershed algorithm is utilized to the concrete steps that pretreated infrared image carries out background segment to be:
Step 2.1, utilize priori to remove the irrelevant marginal information of infrared image, infrared image background content be divided into following three regions, the above be sky areas, be below region, road surface, the right and left is trees regions;
Step 2.2, watershed algorithm is utilized to calculate regional, the computation process of water ridge algorithm is an iteration annotation process, concrete steps are: first sort from low to high to the gray level of pixel each in each region, then realize flooding in process from low to high, adopt first in first out structure judge and mark each local minimum in the domain of influence of h rank height.
Preferably, in described step 3, the object detection concrete steps out having higher heat are by the principle utilizing statistics with histogram to combine with dynamic threshold:
Step 3.1, set an initial threshold according to priori, give dynamic threshold variable by this initial threshold, the first frame infrared image is set to present frame infrared image;
Step 3.2, with dynamic threshold variable, binary conversion treatment is carried out to present frame infrared image, pixel higher than threshold value is referred to as the coordinate range of pedestrian, meanwhile, present frame infrared image is carried out to the statistics with histogram of gray scale, find the gray-scale value that the frequency of occurrences is maximum, give dynamic threshold variable using it as new threshold value;
Step 3.3, next frame infrared image is set to present frame infrared image after, return step 3.2 and re-execute, until all infrared images are all disposed.
Compared with prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects as follows provide a kind of under overnight sight by the scheme of infrared image colorize, infrared hybrid optical system simple before compensate for is difficult to the difficulty distinguished, enhancing driver obtains road information ability at night, is the important reference of nighttime driving.The incidence of vehicle at night accident can be reduced greatly.
Accompanying drawing explanation
Fig. 1 is system framework figure provided by the invention;
Fig. 2 is colorize algorithm flow chart of the present invention.
Embodiment
For making the present invention become apparent, hereby with preferred embodiment, and accompanying drawing is coordinated to be described in detail below.
A kind of vehicle mounted infrared auxiliary drive system fundamental purpose provided by the invention is the security improving running car, obtained the information of vehicle, condition of road surface and pedestrian's situation by the infrared camera be arranged on vehicle, the colorize result figure that native system finally realizes is that driver provides effective information.
As shown in Figure 1, system architecture provided by the invention mainly comprises: FLIRA615 on-vehicle night vision instrument, digital processing unit DSP DM642, Vehicular screen, power supply etc.
The image capture module utilizing FLIR A615 infrared thermography and DSP DM642 to form carries out real-time image acquisition, and data are uploaded to DSPDM642 by Transmission Control Protocol and twisted-pair feeder by data fast that collect.DSP DM642 is a new generation of TI company is the chip that field of video applications designs specially, and its powerful computing power becomes the first-selection of various video process application with equipment in abundant sheet.
By DSP DM642 processing unit, Image semantic classification is carried out to collected infrared picture after collection, utilize the noise etc. on the method removal infrared image of image filtering, strengthen the contrast of infrared image simultaneously.Utilize the colorize algorithm based on Iamge Segmentation after the pre-service obtained, the process flow diagram of algorithm as shown in Figure 2.
First this algorithm needs the segmentation and the colorize that background image are carried out to background.Partitioning algorithm is based on the watershed segmentation methods of mathematical morphology, it is a kind of very outstanding and cutting techniques be widely applied, in essence, it belongs to a kind of dividing method increased based on region, but the border of target that what it obtained is, and be continuously, the closed but border that pixel is wide.For eliminating the over-segmentation that watershed algorithm produces, we utilize priori to remove irrelevant marginal information.Image content is divided into following three major types, the above be sky, be below road surface, the right and left be tree.The computation process of watershed divide is an iteration annotation process.This algorithm divides two steps, and one is sequencer procedure, and one is the process of flooding.First the gray level of each pixel is sorted from low to high, then realize flooding in process from low to high, adopt first in first out structure judge and mark each local minimum in the domain of influence of h rank height.Different colors is given to each several part of image background after Iamge Segmentation is complete.
Secondly algorithm processes the prospect of infrared image.Due to pedestrian, the higher gray-scale value on image of animal equitemperature is comparatively large, uses the Target Recognition Algorithms based on statistics with histogram.Its ultimate principle is added up the frequency of occurrences of 256 gray levels.An initial threshold is set according to priori.With this threshold process first two field picture, namely binary conversion treatment is carried out to image.Meanwhile carry out the statistics with histogram of gray scale, find the gray-scale value that the frequency of occurrences is maximum, give dynamic threshold variable using it as new threshold value.This dynamic threshold just can be utilized afterwards to carry out binaryzation to image, and the pixel higher than threshold value is referred to as the coordinate range of pedestrian, improves the arithmetic speed of algorithm.
New threshold value processes as the threshold value of next frame new images, and continuation said method upgrades new threshold value simultaneously.Circular treatment like this.When the advantage of this algorithm can be saved and calculate dynamic threshold, first to the process of all pixels of global image, and the binarization segmentation after statistics is put into, improve the real-time performance of system.
Then find the coordinate range of pedestrian in the image after watershed segmentation, give colored, the prospect of infrared images whole like this and background after being all combined into piece image by colorize export entire image.Just abundant road information can be provided when night, road was dim to driver.
