摘要
Methods and apparatus for using a controllable filter, e.g., an liquid crystal panel, in front of a camera are described. The filter is controlled based on the luminosity of object in a scene being captured by the camera to reduce or eliminate luminosity related image defects such as flaring, blooming or ghosting. Multiple cameras and filters can be used to capture multiple images as part of a depth determination processes where pixel values captured by cameras at different locations are matched to determine the depth, e.g., distance from the camera or camera system to object in the environment. Pixel values are normalized in some embodiments based on the amount of filtering applied to a sensor region and sensor exposure time. The filtering allows for regional sensor exposure control at an individual camera even though the overall exposure time of the pixel sensors maybe and often will be the same.
