Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a high dynamic range picture capturing device and method. [Prior Art] The HDR (High Dynamic Range) file is a special graphic file format. Each element of the picture has the actual brightness information of the point in addition to the normal RGB information. Ordinary graphics files have only 0 to 255 grayscale ranges per primitive, which is actually not enough. Imagine the difference between the luminous intensity of the sun and the grayscale range or brightness range between a pure black object, far exceeding 256 levels. Therefore, an ordinary daytime landscape picture, it seems that both white clouds and the sun may appear to be the same grayscale/brightness, both of which are pure white, but in fact the actual brightness between the white clouds and the sun cannot be the same, between them The difference in brightness is huge. Therefore, the normal graphic file format is very inaccurate and far from being recorded in the real world. A high dynamic range is the relative ratio between the lightest and darkest parts of a scene. An HDR picture that records the brightness values of actual scenes far beyond 256 levels, and the excess is not displayed on the screen. Think of it like this: Open a picture taken from the room to the window in Photoshop. The part outside the window is in strong sunlight, overexposed, showing a piece of white, with little detail. You will have no way, dimming will only turn gray, and will not present more details. However, if the same scene is recorded by HDR, the exposure will be reduced, and the original white part will show more details. 5 200922287 j and only use HDR technology in simple games or animations. Generally, if a normal camera needs to capture enough HDR information, it will need to manually adjust the exposure value and filter it out by calculation. Exposure and underexposed pictures, in the end, can get a picture of HDR information; if you use a professional camera to take pictures of HDR information, but professional cameras need special hardware to match, resulting in huge cost, so greatly increase the shooting to get HDR The difficulty of the information picture. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a high dynamic range picture capture device and method, by superimposing the brightness information of the mother-one picture point in the picture with different brightness obtained by different exposure value ranges. A high dynamic range image. The preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a high dynamic range picture capturing device that operates a dynamic range image capturing program, and the program includes: a mode opening module for turning on a shooting mode of a high dynamic range picture; Group, used to set the exposure range size when taking pictures according to requirements; > picture synthesis module, which is used to perform brightness information of each element point in a picture with different brightness obtained in different exposure value ranges Superimpose to get a superimposed high dynamic range image. A high dynamic range image capturing method, which is obtained by superimposing the brightness information of each primitive point in a different brightness image obtained by shooting different exposure value ranges to obtain a high dynamic range image, the method comprising the steps: 200922287 Turn on the shooting mode of the high dynamic range picture; use the auto exposure function to get the maximum and minimum brightness of the scene to be shot; and set the exposure value range according to the maximum and minimum values of the above brightness, that is, set the exposure used to take the picture. Value range size; according to the above-mentioned set exposure range, the picture is taken to obtain pictures of different brightness. 'Each picture records the RGB information of each element point and the brightness information of the = point; and / Tian will be in the above different brightness pictures The brightness information of each element point is added to obtain a high-dynamic range picture to more realistically reflect the real scene. Compared with the prior art, the high dynamic range picture manipulation device and method can capture different brightly produced pictures by setting different exposure value ranges, and then each pixel point in each picture. Brightness information is superimposed
