4. Technical Presentation

Cherry Zhang	Title : High Dynamic Range Imaging Abstract: In image processing, computer graphics, and photography, high dynamic range imaging (HDR) is a set of techniques that allow a greater dynamic range of luminances between light and dark areas of a scene than normal digital imaging techniques. This presentation explains the concepts of high dynamic range imaging, and the process of constructing images with high dynamic range. It also discusses the possibility of incorporating HDR technology into digital film production.
