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:
“They sang, but had not human tunes nor words,
Though all was done in common as before;
They had changed their throats and had the throats of birds.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Those great ideas which come to you in your sleep just before you awake in morning, those solutions to the world’s problems which, in the light of day, turn out to be duds of the puniest order, couldn’t they be put to some use, after all?”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
