Image Pipeline Tuning

Image pipeline tuning is a technique to transform the sensor’s raw data to the final compressed image. It plays a key role in the overall image quality, since the increasing complexity of image processing is required by a corresponding increase in image resolution. To achieve the best image quality, an image pipeline must be tuned based on the characteristics of the sensor, the lens, and the camera module.
This whitepaper details:

• Image pipeline tuning for achieving the best image quality for various combinations of sensor and lens with varied lighting conditions in any camera-based applications.
• Issues concerning image quality and its evaluation.
