Abstract

In order to realize the fast search and tracking of ground dim target under the movement condition of infrared detector, an infrared image registration method is proposed based on phase correlation registration and the feature point registration, which can make the infrared image motion compensation come true. After using the phase correlation registration for rough registration in movement infrared images, the high precision registration was realized by the priori information of the feature point image registration, which combined the features of phase correlation registration and feature point registration. Experimental results validate that the infrared image displacement information had been provided and the small detection rate and accuracy had been improved by the algorithm, which didn’t reduce the registration accuracy in real-time IRST.
