High dynamic range imaging for stereoscopic scene representation
Huei‐Yung Lin, Wei-Zhe Chang · 2009
This paper presents a method for generating high dynamic range and disparity images by simultaneously capturing the high and low exposure images using a pair of cameras. The proposed stereoscopic high dynamic range imaging technique is able to record multiple exposures without any time delay, and thus suitable for high dynamic range video synthesis. We have demonstrated that it is possible to construct the camera response function using a pair of images with different amount of exposure. The intensities of the stereo images can then be normalized for correspondence matching. Experiments using the Middlebury stereo datasets are presented.
