SUMMARY: Today’s and Tomorrow’s Camera Processing Pipelines - Prof Gra

DESCRIPTION:In today’s cameras\, the transformation from the input image
  recorded on a camera sensor to the output picture is driven by the twin g
 oals of first\, representing in a physically plausible way the scene and s
 econd\, producing a ‘good looking’ image. In this talk I will discuss 
 specific contributions we have made in the Colour Lab at the University of
  East Anglia to camera processing pipelines including\, the development of
  leading algorithms for white-balance\, tonality and colour correction. \n
 \n\nThe pictures taken by tomorrow’s cameras  will capture both what we 
 ourselves saw but will also convey information that is invisible to the na
 ked eye. As an example\, pictures of scenes at distance or through haze of
 ten lack detail and yet the near-infra red images of the same scene are vi
 vid and detail rich. Fusing this detail back into the RGB image  image - u
 sing algorithms I will review - can produce  preferred looking photographs
 . A second application of fusion processing\, that I will discuss\, is to 
 make images that are\, simultaneously\, more accessible to colour-blind ob
 servers yet still look good to everyone else. \n\n\nIn the talk I will als
 o touch on my experiences on commercialising our research. \n\n
