Abstract
A source image (S) distorted by a camera lens can be transformed into a rectified target image (T), by means of a tabular imaging specification. The above occurs during read-out from the image sensor and in real-time. Each source pixel in the source image is assigned none, one or several target pixels in the target image (T). A first controller (C) controls the image sensors (B, B) accurately with tine and the image equalization and image correlation. A second controller (C) controls the first controller (C) and works in a manner temporally decoupled from the above.
