Lens Shading Correction Overview
The Lens Shading Correction algorithm is useful when testing image sensor assemblies that contain optical lenses. There is inevitably some intensity fall-off at the edges of the image sensor, due to the lens system. This intensity fall-off can adversely affect some of the characterization measurements, and for this reason, this lens shading correction algorithm is embedded in many of the other algorithms included with Image Sensor Lab.
An Nth order filter is used for determining the background and the filter order and percentile (rank) is user-configurable.
