High Dynamic Range Imaging: Acquisition, Display, and Image-
Morgan Kaufmann (August 24, 2005) | ISBN: 0125852630 | PDF | 32 Mb | 520 pages
High dynamic range imaging produces images with a much greater range of light and color than conventional imaging. The effect is stunning, as great as the difference between black-and-white and color television. High Dynamic Range Imaging is the first book to describe this exciting new field that is transforming the media and entertainment industries. Written by the foremost researchers in HDRI, it will explain and define this new technology for anyone who works with images, whether it is for computer graphics, film, video, photography, or lighting design.
