Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for performing high dynamic range mixing on a pixel stream. In use, the system receives a pixel stream including at least two exposures per pixel from a plurality of pixels of an image sensor. The system then generates a high dynamic range (HDR) pixel stream by performing HDR mixing on the received pixel stream. Finally, the system outputs the HDR pixel stream. Additional systems, methods, and computer program products are also presented.
