Camera Calibration
Processing Chain Overview and Description
The following d iagram shows a simp lified block d iagram of the camera’s analog and d igital processing
chain.
The analog p rocessing chain begins w ith an analog gain ad ju stm ent, follow ed by an analog offset
ad ju stm ent. These ad ju stm ents are ap p lied to the vid eo analog signal p rior to its d i gitization by an A/ D
converter.
The d igital p rocessing chain contains the FPN correction, the PRN U correction, the backgrou nd su btract,
and the d igital gain and offset.
All of these elem ents are u ser p rogram m able and m ost are m em bers of the
