Abstract

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for image processing that supports high dynamic range (HDR) photography. In some aspects, a method of generating a full-resolution HDR photograph with in-sensor zoom includes receiving first and second image data corresponding to first and second exposure captures of a scene. First and second full-resolution image frames may be generated from the first and second image data, which are subsequently processed with HDR fusion to obtain an output image frame with higher dynamic range than either the first or second image data. The first full-resolution image frame may be determined from both the first and second image data by compensating the second image data for differences between the first and second exposures. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
