Wide Dynamic Range - Common Solutions

Common Solutions

There are two basic technical solutions that are used to provide WDR cameras:

  • Multi-frame imaging – where the camera captures more than one frame or "version" of the field of view, each frame has different dynamic range, and the camera combines the different frames to produce one WDR frame. This technique is also known for still images as HDR imaging
  • Non-linear sensors – usually logarithmic sensors, where the sensitivity of the sensor at different illumination levels is different, and enables the capture of a wide dynamic range image in one frame.

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or solutions:

    “I don’t have any doubts that there will be a place for progressive white people in this country in the future. I think the paranoia common among white people is very unfounded. I have always organized my life so that I could focus on political work. That’s all I want to do, and that’s all that makes me happy.”
    —Hettie V., South African white anti-apartheid activist and feminist. As quoted in Lives of Courage, ch. 21, by Diana E. H. Russell (1989)

    “Football strategy does not originate in a scrimmage: it is useless to expect solutions in a political compaign.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
