Abstract

Described are systems, methods, and apparatus for generating motion extracted images having a high dynamic range ('HDR') based on image data obtained from one or more image sensors at different times. The implementations described herein may be used with a single image sensor or camera that obtains images at different exposures sequentially in time. The images may be processed to detect an object moving within the field of view and pixel information corresponding to that moving object extracted. The non-extracted image data may then be combined to produce a motion extracted HDR image that is substantially devoid of the moving object.
