numpyHDR

Micro Library for HDR image creation using the Mertens Fusion Alghoritm

Intention

• numpy and PIL only.
• Whenever dependencies of other bigger image librarys aren´t satisfyable.
• 32-bit armv6 or oudated Kernels etc.

Function

• Uses a conversion of the Mertens Fusion alghoritm
• Stretches Information to the full spectrum like Contrast or compression
• Lifts the shadows softly with an envelope.
• Clips to Image range and saves via PIL

Setup

• Download into project path and import the class for now.

Usage

• Instantiate then set attributes:
  • input_image = List containing path strings including .jpg Extension
  • output_path = String ot Output without jpg ending
  • compress_quality = 0-100 Jpeg compression level defaults to 75

Run function sequence() to start processing. Example:

hdr = numpyHDR.NumpyHDR()

hdr.input_image = photos/EV- stages/

hdr.compress_quality = 50

hdr.output_path = photos/result/

hdr.sequence()

-returns: Nothing (Arrrr)
