Abstract
Recently, visual representations using high dynamic range (HDR) images become increasingly popular, with advancement of technologies for increasing the dynamic range of image. HDR image is expected to be used in wide-ranging applications such as digital cinema, digital photography and next generation broadcast, because of its high quality and its powerful expression ability. HDR imaging technologies will spread its sphere of influence in imaging industry. In this paper, we review the state-of-the-art studies and the trends of the HDR imaging, in terms of the following three points: (1) HDR imaging sensor and HDR image generation techniques as image acquisition technologies, (2) encode method of HDR images for efficient transmission and storage, (3) human visual system issues associated with reproduction of HDR image.
