De-ghosted HDR video acquisition for embedded systems: Ghost-free HDR video of motion objects from stationary cameras

This paper proposes a novel ghost-free High Dynamic Range (HDR) multi-exposure video acquisition suitable for real-time implementation in embedded systems. While the method is limited to stationary cameras, it achieves, with low requirements on resources, results comparable to state-of-the-art de-ghosting methods that are often very computationally expensive and almost impossible to implement in smart cameras and embedded systems. The paper describes the method itself and includes an evaluation of the performance on selected embedded platforms and a comparison of the results to the state of the art using HDR datasets.
