First principles exploration 👋 The goal of this article is to explore the topic of the camera response function experimentally. We’ll build up from first principles and the main focus will be on building intuition with code examples. The only pre-requisite is base familiarity with Python + NumPy and, of course, curiosity about the topic. 🧑‍🚀 If you’re looking for a quick way to find out the response function of your camera, you can check out the implementation of CalibrateDebevec in OpenCV, or stick around to get a deeper intuition....
