Study on the method to process the images of the laser initiative illumination

In this paper, an experimental platform is established with a 1319nm Nd:YAG laser, through which the experimental research is carried out on the cone target characteristics under the condition of laser lighting. The images of the laser initiative illumination have been collected. This dissertation studies the methods to process the images of the laser initiative illumination, with the focus on the pre-processing method. The pre-processing of images can speed up the following processing of images and decreases the amount of calculation of the images, so that it can improve the timeliness of the image processing and lay the foundation for the following, such as feature-matching. The method of edge detection has also been analyzed. Regarding the methods of edge detection, the calculation of the canny edge detection is time-consuming, while Roberts edge detection is faster. As for the significance of this research, it can provide some technical support for the functional assessment of a laser initiative illumination imaging system.
