Pragmatic manifestation of high dynamic range imaging – A Review

The real world images produce a range of brightness variations. However, the display systems used are able to operate on low dynamic range only i.e., they can reproduce only 8 bit data per pixel. This results in poor image quality as compared to what is visible to the human eye. Thus, in order to ac...
