Abstract:
A decamouflaging method includes: obtaining image representing a scene including a multispectral image including components in the spectral domain ranging from the visible domain to the short-wavelength infrared and a thermal image including a component in the medium infrared and/or the long-wavelength infrared; extracting a sub-part (“window”) from each of the images obtained at a given position; applying a contrast accentuation procedure to the window extracted from the multispectral image allowing an improved window to be obtained where contrast between pixels corresponding to the object and pixels not corresponding to the object is accentuated; forming a multicomponent window, the improved window obtained and the window extracted from the thermal image each supplying a component of the multicomponent window; and applying the procedure to the multicomponent window; generating an image by inserting the improved window obtained by applying the procedure to the multicomponent window in a receiving image representing the scene.

Claim (Index 7):
The method according to  claim 2 , wherein the plurality of components of the multispectral image comprises at least one spectral band included in the visible domain corresponding to a red and/or blue and/or green primary colour and in that, for each position of said window obtained, the method comprises:\n applying the contrast accentuation procedure to the window extracted from the multispectral image, each component corresponding to a spectral band situated in the near infrared and/or short-wavelength infrared not being taken into account; calculating a contrast value, referred to as the visible contrast value, between the pixels corresponding to the first mask and the pixels corresponding to the second mask of the improved window obtained following the application of the contrast accentuation procedure; and ending the implementation of the method for decamouflaging an object for the position of said window obtained when said visible contrast value is above a predefined threshold, referred to as the visible threshold.
