In the last two decades the problem of accurately capturing the geometry of an object was extensively studied, while the acquisition of high-quality textures only in recent years has become subject of research. In most cases, geometry and texture are acquired separately and a registration step has to be carried out to correlate them. In this work we describe the usage of a color coded structure...

When the dynamic range of radiance values in a scene exceeds the capabilities of a camera, a single picture can only capture one brightness range of the scene faithfully at a time. We propose a system for creating high dynamic range (HDR) videos that overcomes this limitation. It acquires a number of images under varying exposure settings from dark to bright, each containing new scene radiance ...

This paper presents an approach for improving the effective dynamic range of cameras by using multiple photographs of the same scene taken with different exposure times. Using this method enables the photographer to accurately capture scenes that contain a high dynamic range, i.e., scenes that have both very bright and very dark regions. The approach requires an initial calibration, where the c...

Many real-world scenes contain a dynamic range that exceeds conventional display technology by several orders of magnitude. Through the combination of several existing technologies, new high dynamic range displays, capable of reproducing a range of intensities much closer to that of real environments, have been constructed. These benefits come at the cost of more optically complex devices; invo...
