Abstract:
1. An image capture device, comprising: an image capture circuit comprising an image sensor configured to convert incident light into electrical signals; and at least one computer processor programmed to: generate a moving subject detection map that includes moving subject region identification information for a current image received from the image capture circuit; generate an exposure control map based, at least in part, on the moving subject detection map and having an exposure pattern that cyclically applies a plurality of different exposure times to a moving subject region identified by the moving subject detection map; output exposure control signals to the image capture circuit based, at least in part, on the exposure control map; and determine output image pixel values by combining a plurality of pixel value information items for a plurality of pixels for which the plurality of the different exposure times have been set that are derived from the moving subject region.
