Abstract
Methods and devices for dynamically tuning an exposure time of an imager are disclosed herein. The method captures, via an imaging assembly of a device, a first image of an object. The imaging assembly comprises a light source and at least one imager having a first exposure time during capture of the first image. The method determines an average number of a first class of pixels per column of pixels present in the first image and determines whether the average number of the first class of pixels per column of pixels is within a range. If the average number of the first class of pixels per column of pixels is not within the range, the method modifies the first exposure time of the at least one imager by one of decreasing or increasing the first exposure time of the at least one imager based on a classification of the first image.
