Research on the Image Enhancement Algorithm of Pointer Instrument under Inadequate Light

Article Preview

Abstract:

For image processing, the recognition of pointer instrument’s reading by computer vision highly depends on brightness. An image enhancement algorithm based on homomorphic filtering and histogram equalization is proposed in order to reduce the impact of low-light conditions on images of pointer instrument. It combines the methods of spatial with frequency domain, which enhances the image contrast and highlights the image details as well. Compared with the traditional method, the experiments show that the proposed method can eliminate the effect of inadequate light and also perform well in enhancing the image quality.
