Image Sensor Fundamentals - Auto Exposure Control

Event Description

High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging systems rely on auto exposure as a critical component to achieve optimal exposure levels for capturing images with a wide dynamic range. The image sensor's ability to adapt to varying lighting conditions is crucial in obtaining visually pleasing and accurate results. This session will provide an overview of exposure control techniques specifically designed for HDR image sensors, highlighting their principles, challenges, and advancements.

The session will delve into how Hyperlux’s simple camera operation with simplified exposure control offers stable output images without requiring SoC/ISP frame-by-frame exposure/gain controls. We will explore the recent advancements and trends in auto exposure control for onsemi image sensors, including the "Set it and Forget it" feature of the Hyperlux, which simplifies sensor performance for all lighting scenes with a single setting.
