Infrared Enhancing

Infrared Enhancing significantly improves the visibility and interpretation of infrared imagery, providing operators with crucial visual information in challenging environments.

How Does It Work?

Infrared Enhancing operates by applying algorithms to incoming infrared data. The system dynamically adjusts the compression and contrast of the image to bring out details that might otherwise be lost in the raw infrared feed. This process is adaptive, responding to the specific features of each scenario and the current saturation levels of the sensor.

Infrared Enhancing can reveal subtle temperature differences and object details that are critical for accurate interpretation of the infrared imagery.

    Importance in Avionics

    • Enhanced Situational Awareness
      By improving the clarity of infrared imagery, pilots and operators can better understand their environment, especially in low-light or night-time conditions.
    • Improved Target Detection 
      The enhanced contrast allows for easier identification of potential targets or areas of interest. 
    • Weather Penetration
      Infrared imagery, when enhanced, can provide better visibility through certain weather conditions that might obscure normal visual imagery.
    • Night Operations
      Enhanced infrared imagery is crucial for safe and effective night-time operations.
    • Terrain Mapping
      Improved infrared imagery can reveal terrain features that might not be visible in standard visual spectrum imagery.

    Applications in OPENSIGHT 

    The Infrared Enhancing feature in OPENSIGHT provides operators with: 

    • Improved visibility in low-light and night-time conditions
    • Enhanced ability to detect and identify heat signatures
    • Increased operational effectiveness during missions requiring infrared imaging

        Infrared Enhancement maximizes the capabilities of existing infrared systems, extending operational effectiveness in challenging environments without hardware upgrades. 

        Key Image and Video Enhancement Tools

        Augmented Reality (AR)

        Augmented reality (AR) integrates real-time data with 3D visualizations to provide users with an enhanced understanding of their operational landscape. 

        Fog Suppression

        Fog Suppression is specifically developed to enhance visibility in foggy conditions. 

        False Color

        False color is a powerful feature that enhances the visibility of crucial details while preserving the specificity of sensor information. 

        Super Resolution

        Super Resolution is designed to enhance the resolution of target images by exploiting information from multiple frames in a video sequence.

        Histogram equalization

        Histogram equalization is a technique used to adjust contrast levels and expand the intensity range in a digital image.
