Abstract

Methods and computer systems are disclosed for generating an augmented image. For example, a method may include displaying a captured image on a display, wherein the image comprises image data values representing radiation emitted from an observed real world scene, receiving a user indication indicating a local area of interest as a user input signal via an input device, determining a first set of selected pixels in an displayed image representing an local area of interest based on said user input signal, determining a second set of selected pixels representing remaining pixels in said image excluded from said first set of selected pixels, and generating an augmented image by performing a first image processing operation on said first set of selected pixels and/or by performing a second image processing operation on said second set of selected pixels. Other example embodiments are also provided.
