Abstract
Several Photochromic Adaptive Filters (PAF's) made of organic photochr omic materials embedded into a polymeric matrix are prepared. Transfor mation Function (TF) of the photochromic filter is determined using a simple, fast and accurate procedure. PAF's are used as opto-optic Spat ial Light Modulators (SLM's) for image processing in the camera system , which unites a Charge-Coupled-Device (CCD) camera with a photochromi c filter. Change in the local absorption of the filter, caused by ligh t radiation, is used to enhance the quality of the detected image.
