Abstract

In this paper we propose a new tone mapping method for HDR video. Two types of gamma tone mapping are blended to preserve local contrast in the entire range of luminance. Our method achieves high quality tone mapping especially for the HDR video that has a nonlinear response to scene radiance. Additionally, we apply it to an object-aware tone mapping method for camera surveillance. This method achieves high visibility of target objects in the tone mapped HDR video. We examine the validity of our methods through simulation and comparison with conventional work.
