Abstract

An image processing method using a first image sensor covering the visible range and a second sensor covering the infra-red range. The method includes a) acquiring a first image I1 of said given zone of space by means of the first image sensor, b) acquiring a second image I2 of said given zone of space by means of the second image sensor, c) performing a decomposition of the first image I1 so as to obtain at least one luminance image I1L, d) obtaining an image If resulting from digital fusion of the luminance image I1L and of the second image I2, e) adding colour information to the fusion image If or during the fusion stage d).
