Abstract:
An image processing system is disclosed. The system includes a first light source operable to illuminate an image plane in a first direction and a second light source operable to illuminate the image plane from a second direction. Also included is a sensing device operable to detect light from the first and second light source that interacted with the image plane. A processor operable to receive information from the sensing device and determine an image and image defects is coupled to the sensing device.
Abstract:
A system and method for correcting defects in an image. A correction area surrounding the defective pixel is dynamically chosen to include a predetermined percentage of non-defective pixels. The percentage is varied as a function of the size of the surrounding region, such that the percentage decreases as the size of the region increases. The shape of the surrounding area may be varied to further enhance the correction procedure. A center of gravity is maintained around the defective pixel by defining subregions surrounding the pixel.
