Abstract

The irradiance measurement performed by vision cameras is not noise-free due to both processing errors during CCD fabrication and the behaviour of the electronic device itself. A proper characterization of sensor performance, however, allows accounting for it within image processing algorithms. This paper proposes a robust algorithm named R2CIU for characterizing the noise sources affecting CCD performance with the aim of estimating the uncertainty of the intensity values yielded by vision cameras. Experimental results can be found at the end of the paper.
