A system for image acquisition and processing operating in the visible and the IR bands

This demo displays an autonomous image acquisition and processing system that operates simultaneously with two image sensors either in the visible and the Long Wave Infrared Band (LWIR), inside the Infrared (IR) band. The entire system is controlled a Raspberry Pi board that allows to easily program image processing algorithms to process the images acquired with each sensor. It is a competitive alternative to conventional commercial closed systems with infrared cameras. The proposed imaging system can be easily adapted to different operation scenarios by adding new peripherals, sensors and full custom image processing algorithms.
