SHIFT-AND-MATCH FUSION OF COLOR AND MONO IMAGES
In general, techniques are described that facilitate processing of color image data using both a mono image data and a color image data. A device comprising a monochrome camera, a color camera, and a processor may be configured to perform the techniques. The monochrome camera may be configured to capture monochrome image data of a scene. The color camera may be configured to capture color image data of the scene. A processor may be configured to match features of the color image data to features of the monochrome image data, and compute a finite number of shift values based on the matched features of the color image data and the monochrome image data. The processor may further be configured to shift the color image data based on the finite number of shift values to generate enhanced color image data.
Color reconstruction
In one embodiment, coloring artifacts of a color image output by a camera are minimized by taking into account a distortion introduced by the lens. Based on the distortion, the color reconstruction determines which pixels in the grayscale image to include in the reconstruction process. Additionally, the color reconstruction can take into account edges depicted in the grayscale image to determine which pixels to include in the reconstruction process. In another embodiment, coloring artifacts in a 360 degree color image are minimized by performing the color reconstruction process on a three-dimensional surface. Before the color reconstruction takes place, the two-dimensional grayscale image is projected onto a three-dimensional surface, and the color reconstruction is performed on the three-dimensional surface. The color reconstruction on the three-dimensional surface can take into account the distortion produced by the lens and/or can take into account the edges depicted in the two-dimensional and three-dimensional grayscale image.
IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS, INTEGRATED CIRCUITRY AND RECORDING MEDIUM
An image processing method comprising: receiving a first image signal representing a portion of a captured image with a first dynamic range, generating a second image signal using the first image signal, applying one of: a first gain to the brightness value of each pixel in the portion of the captured image represented by the first image signal having a brightness value less than a first threshold brightness value, the first gain serving to increase the brightness value of each pixel to which it is applied, and a second gain to the brightness value of each pixel in the portion of the captured image represented by the first image signal having a brightness value greater than a second threshold brightness value, the second gain serving to decrease the brightness value of each pixel to which it is applied; and after the application of the one of the first and second gains, performing a conversion process such that the brightness value of each pixel in the portion of the captured image represented by the first image signal becomes represented in the second format, thus forming the second image signal.

An example method is performed by a thermal imaging device. The method includes capturing a thermal image of a vehicle and displaying the thermal image within a first region of a display of the thermal imaging device. The method further includes displaying information related to servicing the vehicle within a second region of the display that is distinct from the first region.

DATA PROCESSING METHOD, DEVICE, FILMING SYSTEM, AND COMPUTER STORAGE MEDIUM
Embodiments of this application provide a data processing method, device, filming system, and computer storage medium. The data processing method includes: obtaining a target background resource to be displayed, where the target background resource includes an image resource and/or a video resource; performing image quality optimization on an image in the background resource according to reference information, where the reference information is used for indicating a situation in a background resource display process; displaying the background resource, to use the image in the background resource as a background for filming. During filming, a terminal device performs image quality optimization on an image in a background resource and then displays a background. This process does not require post matting and synthesis and reduces production costs and time costs. Moreover, on-site filming can ensure that the background matches with lighting effects of a real scene, thereby achieving a better film result.
