Abstract
An imaging system includes an image sensor configured to capture a sequence of images including at least one low dynamic range (LDR) image and at least one high dynamic range (HDR) image. The imaging system also includes readout circuitry. The readout circuitry is coupled to read out image data captured by the image sensor. A processor is coupled to the readout circuitry to receive image data corresponding to the at least one LDR image and image data corresponding to the at least one HDR image. The processor is configured to combine high frequency image data extracted from image data corresponding to the at least one LDR image with low frequency image data extracted from image data corresponding to the at least one HDR image to form a composite image.
