Validation of Global Illumination Simulations through CCD Camera Measurements
In this paper we present a technique for calibrating a CCD camera for direct colorimetric comparison between the captured images of the real environment and synthetic images of the simulated environments. We use this comparison to validate lighting simulation algorithms used for computing synthetic images.
متن کاملCCD Camera Gain Measurement
The gain of a CCD camera is the conversion between the number of electrons ("e-") recorded by the CCD and the number of digital units ("counts") contained in the CCD image. It is useful to know this conversion for evaluating the performance of the CCD camera. Since quantities in the CCD image can only be measured in units of counts, knowing the gain permits the calculation of quantities such as...
متن کاملAstrometric quality of the USNO CCD Astrograph (UCA)
The USNO 8–inch astrograph has been equipped with a Kodak 1536x1024 pixel CCD since June 1995, operating in a 570–650 nm bandpass. With 3–minute exposures well exposed images are obtained in the magnitude range R ≈ 8.5 − 13.5. An astrometric precision of 10 to 15 mas for those stars is estimated from frame–to–frame comparisons. External comparisons reveal an accuracy of about 15 mas for those s...
متن کاملMethods for CCD Camera Characterization
In this paper we present methods for characterizing CCD cameras. Interesting properties are linearity of photometric response, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), sensitivity, dark current and spatial frequency response (SFR). The techniques to characterize CCD cameras are carefully designed to assist one in selecting a camera to solve a certain problem. The methods described were applied to a variety...
