Abstract

A method includes obtaining multiple input image frames and determining how to warp at least one of the input image frames. The method also includes performing an intraband demosaic-warp operation to reconstruct image data in different color channels of the input image frames and warp the at least one input image frame to produce RGB input image frames. The method further includes blending the RGB input image frames to produce a blended RGB image frame, performing an interband denoising operation to produce a denoised RGB image frame, and performing an interband sharpening operation to produce a sharpened RGB image frame. In addition, the method includes performing an interband demosaic operation to substantially equalize high-frequency content in different color channels of the sharpened RGB image frame to produce an equalized sharpened RGB image frame and generating a final image of the scene based on the equalized sharpened RGB image frame.
