Abstract
A system for correcting image characteristic data from a plurality of pixels comprises at least one field programmable gate array (FPGA), a lookup table, and a correction module. The FPGA may include a plurality of configurable logic elements and a plurality of configurable storage elements. The lookup table may be accessible by the FPGA and may store a plurality of correction components associated with each pixel, including a gain value, an offset value, and a bad pixel value. The correction module may be formed from the configurable logic elements and configurable storage elements and may receive the characteristic data and the correction components. The correction module may generate corrected data for each characteristic data by utilizing the gain value, the offset value, and the bad pixel value.
