HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE OF AN IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CAPTURING HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE PICTURES

摘要

A sensor arrangement comprises a driver and a sensor wherein a photodiode array is addressed by row and column, rows or/and columns being grouped to define a plurality of different areas of pixels, the sensor comprising at least two arrangements of a plurality of areas, each arrangement being called a zone. A filter grid fits with the photodiode array, each area comprising the same patterns arrangement. The sensor is configured to be driven by the driver to simultaneously capture at least two pictures with different exposure times, each of the at least two pictures being captured in a respective zone, a final picture being reconstructed by a merging operation of at least the two pictures captured.
