Abstract

The key objective of vision fusion would be to merging information from multiple images of exactly the same view in order to deliver only the useful information. The PCA based ways of vision fusion are more suitable and time-saving in real-time systems using PCA based standards of still images. This paper has centered on the many image fusion techniques. The review has shown that the still much research is needed to improve the image fusion technique further. The IBLPCA based technique has shown quite improved results over the available techniques. This paper ultimately ends up with the suitable future directions.
