Abstract

Many real-world scenes contain brightness levels exceeding the capabilities of conventional display technology by several orders of magnitude. Through the combination of several existing technologies, new high dynamic range displays have been constructed recently. These displays are capable of reproducing a range of intensities much closer to that of real environments. We present several methods of reproducing photometrically accurate images on this new class of devices, and evaluate these methods in a perceptual framework.
