Luminance HDR
Luminance HDR is an open source graphical user interface
application that provides a workflow for HDR imaging.
Luminance HDR was previously known as Qtpfsgui. It packages some
functionality of
pfstmo and pfscalibration in an intuitive interface.
An HDR image is an image which presents more than 8 bit per
color
channel. Most CRTs, LCDs and printers, only have a limited dynamic
range, and can display only LDR images (see below). Thus various
methods of "converting" HDR images into a viewable format have been
developed, generally called "tone mapping".
Features include:
- Create an HDR file from a set of images (formats: JPEG,
TIFF 8bit
and 16bit, RAW) of the same scene taken at different exposure setting
- Save / load HDR images
- Rotate, resize and crop HDR images
- Tone map a HDR to obtain a LDR image
- Projective transformations
- Copy exif data between sets of images
- Good performance on multicore CPUs
- Internationalization
- Supports HDR formats:
- Radiance RGBE (extension: hdr)
- Tiff formats: 16bit, 32bit (float) and LogLuv (extension:
tiff)
- Raw image formats (extension: various)
- PFS native format (extension: pfs)
- Supports LDR formats:
- JPEG, PNG, PPM, PBM, TIFF(8 bit)
