HDR Image Acquisition from Two LDR Images

In this paper, we propose a scene adaptive method to obtain two LDR images with proper shutter speeds which capture the irradiance of scene effectively. The proposed method adaptively selects two shutter speeds across the video frame even when the illumination varies continuously. For the performance evaluation, we compute the PNSR to the ground truth which is obtained by the state-of-the-art HDR imaging method. It shows that the proposed method is able to select approximately optimal shutter speeds while avoiding the exhaustive search of every possible pair of shutter speeds.
