Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for performing high dynamic range mixing on a pixel stream. In use, a pixel stream including at least two exposures per pixel from a plurality of pixels of an image sensor is received. A first pixel attribute of a first exposure of the pixel is identified, and a second pixel attribute of a second exposure of the pixel is identified. A first high dynamic range (HDR) pixel is generated by performing HDR mixing on the first exposure of the pixel and the second exposure of the pixel, based on the first pixel attribute, and the second pixel attribute. Additionally, an HDR pixel stream is generated comprising at least the first HDR pixel, and the HDR pixel stream is outputted.
