Real-time video processing of high dynamic range (HDR) content is an important and demanding task. This chapter demonstrates how a HDR video can be acquired in real-time through multi-exposure using standard image sensors, how the data can be fused, processed, and compressed in real-time, all using field programmable gate arrays (FPGA). The chapter describes a block diagram of the system built from an off-the-shelf camera and custom electronics, shows how the processing and compression algorithms work and what are their features, and also how they can be implemented using the FPGA, including a basic information about the results of such implementation.
