Image and video noise: An industry perspective

© Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018. Images and video are increasingly becoming a part of our everyday lives and with this growth, we find an increasing number of industrial and commercial applications of imagery. In this chapter, we will examine the problem of image noise from an industrial and commercial viewpoint. We will consider how noise enters the imaging chain in these settings and how noise is measured and quantified for later removal. We will also discuss standards and standardisation activities that relate to noise measurement in a commercial or industrial setting
