Mountable Dynamic Range Enhancer for Digital Cameras
نویسنده
چکیده
We designed and implemented an innovative dynamic range enhancing device that can be mounted on digital cameras and allows photographers to obtain a high dynamic range photo in single shot without post-processing. A liquid-crystal array is programmed to spatially modulate incident light and optically tone-map the camera module for dynamic range enhancement, preserving the high-light details that were originally over-exposed.

Frame Transfer CCDs for Digital Still Cameras: Concept, Design, and Evaluation
Digital still cameras are becoming a widely used alternative for conventional silver-halide cameras. This paper presents first the concept of frame-transfer CCD imagers designed for consumer digital cameras. Next, the different modes of operation are explained in detail and compared with alternative approaches. Finally, extensive evaluation results on four different imagers using this new conce...

متن کاملStereoscopic High Dynamic Range Video
Stereoscopic video content is usually being created by using two or more cameras which are recording the same scene. Traditionally, those cameras have the exact same intrinsic camera parameters. In this project, the exposure times of the cameras differ, allowing to record different parts of the dynamic range of the scene. Image processing techniques are then used to enhance the dynamic range of...
متن کاملMulti-exposure Image Fusion using No-reference Image-quality Metrics
Images taken by typical digital cameras with fixed exposure often suffer from a lack of details in the underexposed and overexposed regions. Fusing multi-exposed images is particularly useful for improving this situation. This paper proposes a weighted-sum-based multi-exposure image fusion method that is fast enough to be implemented in digital cameras. The proposed method attempts to improve t...
متن کاملIntegral estimation of number of resolvable signal levels of digital cameras
Number of signal levels of modern photoand videocameras equals thousands and tens of thousands. However because of temporal and spatial camera pixels noises and linear dynamic range limitation, number of resolvable signal levels is significantly lower. Earlier iterative method of estimation of number of resolvable signal levels of cameras was proposed. In this paper integral method of estimatio...
