A Real-Time FPGA Implementation of Infrared and Visible Image Fusion Using Guided Filter and Saliency Detection

Abstract: Taking advantage of the functional complementarity between infrared and visible light sensors imaging, pixel-level real-time image fusion based on infrared and visible light images of different resolutions is a promising strategy for visual enhancement, which has demonstrated tremendous potential for autonomous driving, military reconnaissance, video surveillance, etc. Great progress has been made in this field in recent years, but the fusion speed and quality of visual enhancement are still not satisfactory. … Show more

“…In contrast, infrared imaging technology utilizes differences in infrared radiation intensity for object detection, thereby making it less susceptible to varying lighting and weather conditions [1]. Therefore, infrared image enhancement has become a hot topic in current research and has the potential to bring significant benefits to the field of multi-modal information fusion [2][3][4][5]. Simultaneously, it is extensively employed in fields such as target detection [6][7][8] and medical diagnostics [9,10].…”

“…Therefore, extracting the significant features of the fusion image is one of the central problems. Over the past few decades, numerous fusion methods have been proposed by researchers, which can be roughly divided into two categories: traditional fusion methods [ 5 , 6 , 7 ] and deep learning-based fusion methods [ 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Traditional fusion methods measure pixels’ salience in the spatial domain or transform domain, and later design specific fusion rules to fuse them to obtain the fused image.…”
