Master's thesis: "Fusion methods of the visible and thermal images"

The goal of the thesis was implementation of the fusion algorithms for visual and thermal images.

The aim of the work was to develop an algorithm and software to allow the inclusion of the local temperature changes in thermal image during the fusion of images.

Using fusion techniques and developed application a set of experimental research was conducted to measure the influence of fusion parameters on resulting images.

The algorithms and application were developed in MATLAB environment.
