Active Motion High Dynamic Range Imaging for digital still camera

Abstract

Active Motion High Dynamic Range Imaging (HDRI) is a new artifact-free HDRI technology for a consumer digital still camera. This technology allows us to optimize capturing time and to remove motion artifacts by a camera motion and a moving object. To optimize the capturing time, the key component of our approach is a dual-brightness mapping to detect and compensate the artifacts with just two images. This paper shows that the proposed HDRI approach effectively corrects the artifacts.
