Highlights
-
In a bright scene, camera sensor readings may be saturated to a maximal value, resulting in loss of variation and color distortion of bright regions in the image.
-
New algorithm identifies regions of color clipping and uses data from uncorrupted channels to restore the clipped pixel values.
Our Innovation
Method for correcting distortion or loss of color in light-saturated areas of bright scenes; first method that automatically corrects both raw data and processed images; also applicable to video sequences.
Key Features
Development Milestones
Seeking industrial cooperation for commercialization
The Opportunity
System has applications in all types of cameras and in the entertainment and communications industries
