Abstract

See full text

A method of performing dark correction for signals generated by an image sensor is disclosed. Dark state signals are received from an image sensor and a dark correction ratio is determined for each pixel based on the dark state signals. Operational state signals are received from the image sensor and a pseudo dark signal is determined for each pixel based on the dark correction ratio and further based on the operational state signals. A corrected signal value based on the pseudo dark signal is determined. The method is capable of compensating for dark signals from the image sensor over a course of a series of measurements notwithstanding changes in temperature and exposure time.
