Translation of "Falschfarbenbild" in English

The different surface temperatures are represented as false colour images.

The background false–color image and contours indicate emission from cold dust.

With the method according to the invention, the image recorded is converted to a false color image in a first step.

For ease of representation, the color gradations such as those known from a false color image have not been depicted here.

In this false-colour image, vegetation appears in different red tones and agricultural areas are almost white.

NASA's Dawn spacecraft obtained this image with its framing camera on July 25, 2011.

This false color image is based on observations with the 10-m-Keck-telescope on the summit of Mauna Kea in Hawaii.

In one embodiment, provision can be made for the false-color image to be updated continuously or repeatedly.

The display shows the false-color image of the measured property without a modification by optical properties of the object.

The sub-object 2 is thus depicted in a color image (false-color-image), for example, as bright orange.

This false color image is based on observations with the Keck 10m telescope on the summit of Maunakea in Hawaii.

This false-colour image yields detailed information about the elevation-dependent vegetation belts on Kilimanjaro, which are not uniformly distributed.

The digitalized picture signals are modified by the video processor with respect to the relative amplification of the digital video signals and upon this are converted back into analog picture signals, which simultaneously are supplied to a red and green input of a RGB color monitor which produces a phantom color photo in which healthy biological tissue appears cyanine colored and cancerous tissue red.

In this false color image, a hue value from the HSV color space is then assigned to each pixel, where the hue value corresponds to a hue angle H on a predetermined color circle.

In the corresponding false-color image, the average, minimal and maximal backscatter values are represented for every pixel in the red, green and blue channels.

The background false–color image and white contours in the right panel give the emission of cold dust in the Brick itself.

This false-colour image uses primarily information from the near infrared part of the spectrum in order to emphasise differences in vegetation.

For example, with such a luminous layer, with a suitable mask layer, it would be possible to achieve an image changeover from a true-color image to a false-color image.

BACKGROUND The invention relates to a method for visualizing spatially resolved measurement results, wherein a measuring unit establishes a spatially resolved measurement result of an object and a false-color image is obtained from the spatially resolved measurement result.

In order to compensate for interference by a scene background, provision can be made for a color and/or brightness encoding to be used for the false-color image, which encoding takes account of the color and/or brightness properties of the object.

Here, a false-color image is understood to mean any two-dimensional representation of a spatially resolved measurement result, in which the individual measurement values are respectively assigned a color and/or brightness value in a color or brightness code.

The measuring arrangement 8 comprises a measuring unit 1 such as e.g. a thermographic camera, a representation unit 3 such as e.g. a laser-based projector, a visual camera unit 4 for compensating for the visual object properties in the visual range and finally the conversion and data-processing unit 2, which is required to convert the measurement data into a false-color image with corresponding corrections and which for example can be implemented in the form of a programmable electronic circuit in the interior of the housing.

The high dynamics of the method according to the invention can also be used for imaging by converting the locally determined quantities or concentrations into a false-color image with pixel sizes to be specified.

In theory, a false-color image of this kind can capture a dynamic range of any size which is only still limited by the sample and no longer by the detection system.

For example, when there is a sufficiently large quantity of analyzed regions, a false-color image having a dynamic range of any size in principle can be generated and outputted.

Easily means that the method according to the invention is applied using e.g. a mobile, advantageously battery-operated instrument and, like in the case of a “magic torch”, in order to carry out the method the observed solid angle is varied by pivoting an instrument and possible leads are thus sought after, wherein the user or users do not look at a small display but are able to concentrate on the examined objects on which the measured property is then visualized in a visible manner by the projected false-color image.

This produces a so-called false-color-image for the human eye, made up of two specific types of information: absorption and material.

Accordingly, if two materials having identical absorption (brightness), but are made from different materials (color), are compared to this false-color-image, the two material appear to have different brightness levels to the human eye, since the human eye has different sensitivity to different colors.
