The invention discloses an infrared / glimmer image fusion night vision system, which consists of a glimmer object glass group, a glimmer image intensifier, an infrared object glass group, an uncooling long-wave infrared detector, an image processing circuit module, an electric signal transmission line, an OLED (organic light emitting diode) minitype display, an integrated optical prism and an eye lense system. The night vision system takes a glimmer image as the background, and the image fusion of a glimmer channel and an infrared channel is realized in a mode that a pseudo-color infrared target is optically projected. In order to obtain the good image fusion effect, the glimmer object glass group and the infrared object glass group both satisfy one time of magnifying power; an infrared image is subjected to denoising and enhancing pretreatments, target extraction and the electronic registration of the image; and then, a gray level image is subjected to pseudo-color treatment and is then output to the OLED minitype display for color display. The fused image has a clear glimmer background and an outstanding infrared target. The night vision system has the advantages of small size and light weight, can work for a long time and is especially suitable for night vehicle driving and for a single person to carry, observe and use.
