Abstract:The lucky-region fusion(LRF) technology can get a high-resolution re constructed picture by selecting,registering,and splicing the “lucky regions” with a cer tain probability of high definition in the short-exposure sequence images.However,at present, this technology has always been used to deal with monochrome images.According to the color image imaging process and its data characteristics,combined with the classic lu cky-region fusion algorithm,a lucky-region fusion algorithm for color short-exposure ima ge sequences is proposed.This algorithm selects,registers and splices the data of the red, green and blue channels of the color images respectively and finally synthesizes a high-resolu tion color image.Through the 2200short-exposure frames shoot continuou sly,the proposed algorithm is verified from multiple angles.The results of the selection of the red,green and blue channels show that atmospheric turbulence does produce random interference to th e imaging of different areas and different wavelengths in the optical scene.This proves t hat the red, green and blue channels can be processed separately is established in theory.Th e subjective feelings and objective indicators of the measured color image fusion results als o prove that the algorithm can exactly improve the resolution of color images degraded by atm ospheric turbulence.
