A system and method for correcting oversaturated pixels in far-infrared (FIR) images captured by a shutterless FIR camera, the method comprising: capturing thermal images by a FIR sensor in the shutterless FIR camera; processing the thermal images, by the shutterless FIR camera to determine pixel value and at least a shutterless sunburn correction, wherein the shutterless sunburn correction removes oversaturated pixels based on pixel-by-pixel analysis of the thermal image; and sending the processed thermal images to an output device.

Techniques for correcting oversaturated pixels in shutterless FIR cameras

Methods and systems of computing parameter values of one or more model parameters are described. The model models structural and dielectric properties of a structure in a human or an animal body. An exemplary method includes: accessing voltage measurements made at different places in the vicinity of the structure by one or more in-body field sensing electrodes in response to currents applied to one or more field supplying electrodes; and computing the parameter values by adjusting the parameter values to fit predicted voltage values to the accessed voltage measurements, wherein the predicted voltage values are predicted from the model for the currents applied to the field supplying in-body electrodes.

A system and method for correcting oversaturated pixels in far-infrared (FIR) images captured by a shutterless FIR camera. The method includes identifying oversaturated pixels based on a pixel value analysis of an input image; creating an oversaturated pixel mask of the input image, where the oversaturated pixel mask includes the identified oversaturated pixels and excludes pixels not identified as oversaturated pixels; and correcting the oversaturated pixels of the current image using the oversaturated pixel mask, based on a scene-based nonuniformity correction (SBNC).

A system and method for correcting nonuniformity in far-infrared (FIR) images captured by a shutterless FIR camera. The method includes determining a noise of a current image based on updating a noise estimate of a previous image with a noise estimate of a current image; determining a weight mask matrix of the current image, where the weight matrix includes high values corresponding to pixels of the current image in which noise estimation is facilitated, and low values corresponding to pixels of the current image in which noise estimation is inhibited; applying the weight mask matrix to the current image; and correcting the nonuniformity of the current image incrementally based on the determined noise of current image and the applied weight mask matrix.

A system and method for correcting fixed pattern noise in far-infrared (FIR) images captured by a shutterless FIR camera. The method includes: determining a drift coefficient based on previously determined calibration values and high pass filter values applied to an input FIR image captured by the shutterless FIR camera; smoothing the drift coefficient based, in part, on previously computed drift coefficient values; and removing noise from the input image based on the smoothed drift coefficient value.
