Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for generating a blended pixel. In use, a first image and a second image are received. Next, a motion transform between the first image and the second image is estimated, and an aligned first image and an aligned second image are rendered based on the motion transform. Further, a first intensity for a first pixel associated with the aligned first image is calculated, a second intensity for a second pixel associated with the aligned second image is calculated, and a blend value based on the first intensity, the second intensity, and a blend surface function is calculated. Additionally, a blended pixel associated is generated with a blended image by blending the first pixel with the second pixel based on the blend value. Lastly, the blended pixel within the blended image is stored. Additional systems, methods, and computer program products are also presented.
