Image processing system with led flicker mitigation

A computer-implemented method for processing images, comprising:

• receiving sequential long and short exposure images and a wide dynamic range (WDR) image based on adjacent sequential long and short exposure images;
• generating a fusion image based on the adjacent sequential long and short exposure images, the fusion image comprising added data from each of the adjacent long and short exposure images;
• generating a control signal based on the fusion image, the WDR image and the adjacent sequential long and short exposure images, the control signal indicating whether pixels in the fusion image or the WDR image comprise an LED flicker;
• and
• generating a blended image responsive to the control signal.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer instructions for processing images, that when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of:

• receiving sequential long and short exposure images and a wide dynamic range (WDR) image based on adjacent sequential long and short exposure images;
• generating a fusion image based on the adjacent sequential long and short exposure images, the fusion image comprising added data from each of the adjacent long and short exposure images;
• generating a control signal based on the fusion image, the WDR image and the adjacent sequential long and short exposure images, the control signal indicating whether pixels in the fusion image or the WDR image comprise an LED flicker;
• and
• generating a blended image responsive to the control signal by selecting data from one of the WDR image or the fusion image.
