To improve the robustness of current polarimetric dehazing scheme in the condition of low degree of polarization, we report a polarimetric dehazing method based on the image fusion technique and adaptive adjustment algorithm which can operate well in many different conditions. A splitting focus plane linear polarization camera was employed to grab the images of four different polarization directions, and the haze was separated from the hazy images by low-pass filtering roughly. Then the image fusion technique was used to optimize the method of estimating the transmittance map. To improve the quality of the dehazed images, an adaptive adjustment algorithm was introduced to adjust the illumination distribution of the dehazed images. The outdoor experiments have been implemented and the results indicated that the presented method could restore the target information obviously, and both the visual effect and quantitative evaluation have been enhanced.
