ABSTRACT:
A system and method for fusing or merging video imagery from multiple sources such that the resultant image has improved information content over any one of the individual video images. The sensors generating the video imagery are typically responsive to different types of spectral content in the scene being scanned, such as visible and infra-red or short and long wavelength infra-red, and the like. This permits real-time, high pixel rate operation with hardware implementation of moderate cost and complexity. Image enhancement by frequency content specification is another advantage of this approach. The flexiblity permits application to many different video formats and line rates.
