    Abstract: A method for controlling an exposure duration of a high dynamic range image, including: consecutively generating a first high dynamic range image having a first exposure duration ratio and a second high dynamic range image having a second exposure duration ratio greater than the first exposure duration ratio; performing image quality evaluations on both the first high dynamic range image and the second high dynamic range image to obtain a first image quality and a second image quality, respectively; and determining whether the second image quality is better than the first image quality; if yes, generating a third high dynamic range image having a third exposure duration ratio greater than the second exposure duration ratio; if not, generating the third high dynamic range image having the first exposure duration ratio and setting the first exposure duration ration as the optimal exposure duration ratio.

    Abstract: An exposure-control system and an associated exposure control method are provided. The exposure-control system includes: an image capturing unit configured to capture a long-exposure image and a short-exposure image with a first exposure value and a second exposure value, respectively; and a processor, configured to calculate histograms of the long-exposure image and the short-exposure image, and calculate an exposure ratio according to the calculated histograms, the first and second exposure values, wherein when the exposure ratio is smaller than a first threshold, the processor switches a current exposure mode to a low dynamic range mode. When the exposure ratio is larger than a second threshold, the processor switches the current exposure mode to a high dynamic range mode. When the exposure ratio is between the first threshold and the second threshold, the processor does not switch the current exposure mode.
