    摘要: An image processing method of converting spectral image data of a plurality of spectral wavelengths imaged by a spectral camera into a color image by using a processor, wherein the processor acquires a plurality of pieces of the spectral image data from a storage unit, calculates a correction value by multiplying a optical spectrum of each pixel of a corresponding one of the plurality of spectral image data by a correction constant set for each wavelength, calculates a color conversion value by summing the correction values of the same pixel positions, and generates a color composite image based on the color conversion value. Then, the correction constant is set such that a sum spectrum obtained by summing characteristic spectra obtained by multiplying a sensitivity characteristic with respect to each spectral wavelength of the spectral camera by the correction constant corresponding to each wavelength matches a target spectrum of any color filter.

    摘要: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for image signal processing that support image correction, including lens shading correction (LSC). In a first aspect, a method of image processing includes receiving first image data comprising a first image frame from a camera module; receiving one-dimensional lens shading correction (LSC) factors; and determining an output image frame based on the first image frame by: interpolating a plurality of correction values corresponding to two-dimensional locations of the first image frame by interpolating the one-dimensional lens shading correction (LSC) factors; and applying the plurality of correction values to corresponding locations of the first image frame, wherein applying the plurality of correction values corrects a lens shading effect of the camera module. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
