Abstract
Disclosed is a method for capturing images that makes it possible to correct at least partially a memory effect of sensitive elements of a matrix used to capture the images. A corrected image is formed by subtracting, from a captured new raw image, a part of a prior raw image that was captured before the new raw image. The method is particularly suitable for sensitive elements with a first-order transfer function with respect to time, such as bolometers or microbolometers. Correction of the memory effect makes it possible to improve the transfer function and/or reduce a tail effect that is present in the images when scene elements move.
