1. A method of displaying information representative of a scene, comprising the steps of:
- acquiring information representative of the scene from a detector configured to process information in a first range of wavelengths;
filtering the acquired information more as the amount of thermal content is increased; and
displaying an output for viewing by an operator, further comprising the step of calculating a display value for a display target pixel based on received values of surrounding pixels, wherein the display value equals approximately

9. A vision system for viewing a scene, comprising:
-
a housing; an infrared detector at least partially disposed within the housing; a filter coupled to the detector for filtering an output of the detector and generating a new output, the filter configured to set the amount of filtering based on a thermal content of received information; and a display for displaying the new output for an operator wherein the filter calculates a display value for a display target pixel based on a received value of pixels, wherein the display value equals approximately - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
