Abstract

A method to fuse images to create temperature-based images with higher resolution and frame rate than those of a microbolometer controls a first camera device to capture a first video and controls an infrared camera device to capture a second video. Information as to objects in each frame of image in the first video is recognized, and the edge of an object in the image information is extracted. A thermal image corresponding to the first video is obtained from the second video, the thermal image being processed by an MEMC algorithm for motion estimation and compensation (prediction), to obtain an image free of misalignments and time displacements. A final fused image is obtained by fusing the defined-edges image, the thermal image, and the prediction image. An electronic device employing the method is also disclosed.
