Abstract

A system for converting global shutter image data into simulated rolling shutter image data may include a global-to-rolling shutter image converter. The converter may be configured to receive global shutter image data associated with a plurality of global shutter images. The global shutter image data may include dynamic global shutter image data representative of a moving object in the plurality of global shutter images. The converter may also be configured to determine an optical flow field based at least in part on two or more of the plurality of global shutter images and generate the simulated rolling shutter image based at least in part on the optical flow field. The converter may also be configured to generate high dynamic range (HDR) images based at least in part on the optical flow field and the global shutter image data.
