A Python package implementing various HDRI processing algorithms.
It is open source and freely available under the BSD-3-Clause terms.
Table of Contents
The following features are available:
- HDRI Generation
- Debevec (1997) Camera Response Function Computation
- Grossberg (2003) Histogram Based Image Sampling
- Variance Minimization Light Probe Sampling
- Global Tonemapping Operators
- Adobe DNG SDK Colour Processing
- Absolute Luminance Calibration
- Digital Still Camera (DSC) Exposure Model
- Raw Processing Helpers
- Vignette Characterisation & Correction
Various usage examples are available from the examples directory.
Because of their size, the resources dependencies needed to run the various examples and unit tests are not provided within the Pypi package. They are separately available as Git Submodules when cloning the repository.
Colour - HDRI requires various dependencies in order to run:
- python >= 3.10, < 3.14
- colour-science >= 4.4
- imageio >= 2, < 3
- numpy >= 1.24, < 3
- scipy >= 1.10, < 2
Once the dependencies are satisfied, Colour - HDRI can be installed from the Python Package Index by issuing this command in a shell:
pip install --user colour-hdri
The optional features dependencies are installed as follows:
pip install --user 'colour-hdri[optional]'
The figures plotting dependencies are installed as follows:
pip install --user 'colour-hdri[plotting]'
The overall development dependencies are installed as follows:
pip install --user 'colour-hdri[development]'
