The article states the method of autofocusing of the optoelectronic image, based on digital image processing. Some systems of autofocusing which can be used in optoelectronic equipment of unmanned aerial vehicles are considered. The method developed by authors and the program algorithm implementing it are similar to the rules of functioning of an element of the human visual system which executes an estimation of a spectrum of spatial frequencies for the realization of focusing of the image of objects which are of interest or danger and are on different distance from the observer. The best focusing is defined on the greatest width of a spectrum of spatial frequencies of the object. Such estimation allows focusing the necessary object on the observable image even in the absence of binocular vision. The method is based on the numerical analysis of a two-dimensional amplitude spectrum of the image. Results of operation of the stated method which confirm its efficiency are presented.
