Atmospheric turbulence Scintillation Heat shimmer Graphics processing units Optical flow Deblurring Quality metrics
Abstract: This paper explores the problem of atmospheric turbulence in long range video surveillance. This turbulence causes a phenomenon called heat scintillation or heat shimmer which introduces distortions into the video being captured. The nature of these distortions is discussed and a number of possible solutions explored.
