Abstract
In the space station, the uneven illumination of image brings significant challenges for image enhancement in vision system due to high dynamic range of light intensity and the light reflection of metal facilities. In order to solve this problem in monitoring, unattended operation and robot operation, Retinex algorithm was proposed to estimate the luminosity. However, the effectiveness of this method is highly dependent on the selected path and consumes huge computational cost. This paper proposes an algorithm inspired by the Archimedes spiral in natural environment to improve the processing time and enhance the images quality. First, the structure and mechanism of Human Visual System (HVS) are analyzed. Second, the original image is decomposed into the brightness and color layers based on the structural human eyes mechanism. Third, the brightness layer is processed by the improved Retinex algorithm to enhance the original image by merging it with the color layer. The proposed algorithm is validated with the experimental results.
