The systems and methods described provide an imaging system that allows multiple sensors to record images at their respective best exposures values and adaptively altering the exposure of the images recorded to create a seamless 360-degree view. In particular, the systems and methods described herein include determining exposure values for each column of photosensitive elements in a sensor by interpolating between the best exposure values of adjacent sensors.
