In an information compression unit 311, in an image capturing unit 121 (221), among a plurality of pixel output units that receives object light that enters without passing through any of an image capturing lens and a pinhole, pixel outputs of at least two of the pixel output units have incident angle directivity modulated into different incident angle directivity according to an incident angle of the object light. The information compression unit 311 performs compression processing to reduce an amount of data of pixel output information generated by the image capturing unit 121 (221). For example, by computation of a difference between set reference value information and the pixel output information, linear calculation of a set calculation parameter and the pixel output information, and the like, the information compression unit 311 reduces a word length of the pixel output information, and reduces the amount of data of the pixel output information generated according to the object light that enters without passing through any of an image capturing lens and a pinhole.

A second learning data acquisition section acquires an input image. A wide angle-of-view image generation section generates, in response to an input of the input image, a generated wide angle-of-view image that is an image having a wider angle of view than the input image. The second learning data acquisition section acquires a comparative wide angle-of-view image that is an image to be compared with the generated wide angle-of-view image. A second learning section performs learning for the wide angle-of-view image generation section by, on the basis of a comparison result between the generated wide angle-of-view image and the comparative wide angle-of-view image, updating parameter values of the wide angle-of-view image generation section such that, according to the luminance levels of pixels in the comparative wide angle-of-view image or the luminance levels of pixels in the generated wide angle-of-view image, update amounts of the parameter values concerning the pixels are increased.

A camera agnostic core monitor for an enhanced flight vision system (EFVS) is disclosed. In embodiments, a structured light projector (SLP) generates and projects a precise geometric pattern or other like artifact, which is reflected by collimating elements into the EFVS optical path. Within the optical path, the EFVS focal plane array is illuminated by, and detects, the projected artifacts within the scene imagery captured for display by the EFVS. Image processors assess the presentation of the detected artifacts (e.g., position/orientation relative to the expected presentation of the detected artifact within the scene imagery) to verify that the displayed EFVS imagery is not misleading.

A monitoring device includes an image capturing module, a photosensitive element, a first processing module and a second processing module. The photosensitive element obtains a lighting parameter of a monitored environment.

The second processing module is electrically connected to the image capturing module and the first processing module, and the second processing module has a sleep mode. The second processing module includes an exposure function control unit. When the second processing module is awakened and converted to a recording mode, the exposure function control unit receives the updated lighting parameter from the first processing module and calculates an exposure parameter according to the lighting parameter to control the image capturing module.
