METHOD OF SPATIO-TEMPORAL PROCESSING OF IMAGES ON BASIS OF PHOTOSENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS ARRAYS WITH CHARGE COUPLING Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC H04N5/335 H01L27/148 H04N9/30 

FIELD: physics, image processing.

SUBSTANCE: invention is related to television and may be used for development of applied systems, and in particular for spatio-temporal processing of images. Method is suggested for spatio-temporal processing of images, at that projected image is compressed with required pulse characteristic by means of discrete accumulation of charges that are photogenerated under effect of projected image in potential holes of photosensitive CCD (charge-coupled device) array, in combination with mutual spatial displacement of image and array of photosensitive CCD, at that parameters of displacement are determined by frequency characteristics of spatio-temporal filter, whenever time of accumulation is determined in every point of space, value of pulse characteristic counts is accounted for, as well as level of projected image lighting, and between accumulations pause is provided for the time required for provision of constant time interval between accumulation cycles.

EFFECT: performance of spatio-temporal processing of image simultaneously with its formation with provision of adaptation to lighting level and exclusion of distortions in results of processing related to overflow in potential holes of photosensitive instrument array with charge coupling.
