Abstract:
Methods, devices, and computer program products for capturing images with reduced blurriness in low light conditions are contained herein. In one aspect, a method of capturing an image is disclosed. The method includes capturing a plurality of first images with a first exposure length. The method further includes aligning each of the plurality of first images with each other and combining the aligned plurality of first images into a combined first image. The method further includes capturing a second image with a second exposure length, wherein the second exposure length is longer than the first exposure length and using the second image to adjust the brightness of the combined first image.
Abstract:
A method for compositing images by an electronic device is described. The method includes obtaining a first composite image that is based on a first image from a first lens with a first focal length and a second image from a second lens with a different second focal length. The method also includes downsampling the first composite image to produce a downsampled first composite image. The method further includes downsampling the first image to produce a downsampled first image. The method additionally includes producing a reduced detail blended image based on the downsampled first composite image and the downsampled first image. The method also includes producing an upsampled image based on the reduced detail blended image and the downsampled first composite image. The method further includes adding detail from the first composite image to the upsampled image to produce a second composite image.
Abstract:
A method for adjusting an image by an electronic device is described. The method includes detecting line segments in a single image. The method also includes clustering the line segments to produce a set of vanishing points. The method further includes determining a combination of a focal length and vanishing points corresponding to principal axes of a primary scene coordinate system from the set of vanishing points and a set of focal lengths based on an orthogonality constraint. The method additionally includes adjusting the single image based on the combination of the focal length and vanishing points to produce a perspective-adjusted image.
Abstract:
Methods, devices, and computer program products for generating high dynamic range images with reduced ghosting and motion blur are disclosed herein. In some aspects, methods of detecting areas of motion blur in an image are disclosed. This detection may be based on either a row-based approach, or a patch-based approach. These approaches may be used to classify images or portions of images as being either blurry or sharp, based upon a threshold value. The threshold value may be determined empirically.
