Characterizing Digital Cameras with the Photon Transfer Curve
Purchasing a camera for high performance imaging applications is frequently a confusing and irritating process. Two cameras with seemingly identical printed specifications can perform completely differently during a side by side “Shoot-off”. One of the sources for this confusion is that a camera specified as 12 bits from one vendor may mean simply that a 12 bit A/D converter is used somewhere i...
متن کاملPhoton counting strategies with low light level CCDs
Low light level charge coupled devices (L3CCDs) have recently been developed, incorporating on-chip gain. They may be operated to give an effective readout noise much less than one electron by implementing an on-chip gain process allowing the detection of individual photons. However, the gain mechanism is stochastic and so introduces significant extra noise into the system. In this paper we exa...
متن کاملCalculation Method of Earth-Atmosphere Stray Light Illuminance on Low-orbit Space Cameras
The earth-atmosphere stray light can lower contrast ratio and SNR of spatial optical remote sensors, or even fail the system at certain conditions. Errors in the calculation of the stray light illuminance based on point source are very large, for the satellite’s altitude is only several hundred kilometers and far less than the radius of the earth. This paper proposed a stray light illuminance c...
متن کاملTracking facial features using low resolution and low fps cameras under variable light conditions
We are working on a system aimed at semi automatic reconstruction of real faces using stereo images. This project deals with tracking of user’s head and face movements. The information about position of face and its features will be later used in 3D reconstruction of features using epipolar geometry. The advantage of our approach is that we don’t use color information to find the feature points...
متن کاملPhoton energy recovery: a method to improve the effective energy resolution of gamma cameras.
UNLABELLED One of the major limitations of gamma cameras is their relatively poor energy resolution. The main practical consequence of this is that the detection of both scattered and unscattered photons in the photopeak energy window, affecting image contrast and resolution, makes the data inconsistent with the assumption of scatter-free projection data in reconstruction and attenuation correc...
