Generating reflection transparent image using image fusion space

Abstract

We introduce the image fusion space to find an optimal fusion method from traditional image fusion methods. It is especially difficult to generate the desired color in the case of fusing two color images. We can achieve the desired color image fusion by generating the HSI image space based on the hue, the saturation and the intensity. A photograph is taken by setting a focal point in the glass, limiting the reflection ray using the polarization filter and setting a low value in the iris diaphragm. Another photograph is taken by setting a focal point in the object and limiting the ray without the reflection ray using the polarization filter and setting a low value in the iris diaphragm. We show that both the window inside and the reflection image are represented in the fusion result in high dynamic range by fusing these photographs. © 2008 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
