An HDR (High Dynamic Range) image synthesis is a method which is to photograph scenes with wide luminance range and to reproduce images close to real visual scenes on an LDR (Low Dynamic Range) display. In general, HDR images are reproduced by taking images with various camera exposures and using the tone synthesis of several images. In this paper, we propose an HDR image tone mapping method based on a visual brightness function using dual exposed images and a synthesis algorithm based on local surround. The proposed algorithm has improved boundary errors and color balance compared with existing methods. Also, it improves blurring and noise amplification due to image mixing.
