Abstract
An image is processed using a combination of techniques, particularly, in which low frequency information is processed using multiple tone control and high frequency information is processed using local tone mapping. An image is divided into a plurality of blocks including a given block. Low frequency information and high frequency information of the given block are separated. The low frequency information is processed using multiple tone control. The high frequency information is processed using local tone mapping. A processed image is then produced based on the processed low frequency information and based on the processed high frequency information, the processed image corresponding to the image captured using the image sensor. The processed image is then output for storage or display. Processing the low frequency information can include using a gain curve and bilinear interpolation. Processing the high frequency information can include using an edge preservation filter.
