Abstract

Systems and method for expanding a dynamic range associated with an image are disclosed. The method includes capturing an image of a scene via an imaging device using a single exposure. The image of the scene includes a plurality of polarization images corresponding to different angles of polarization, and each of the polarization images comprise a plurality of color channels. The method further includes determining a criterion for each of the plurality of color channels; selecting one color channel of the plurality of color channels based on determining of the criterion; generating a reconstructed image irradiance for the one color channel based on pixels in two or more of the plurality of polarization images obtained for the one color channel; and outputting a reconstructed image with the reconstructed image irradiance.
