HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. It's a technology used in imaging and photography to enhance the quality of photos and videos. HDR aims to provide a greater dynamic range of luminosity than what is possible with standard digital imaging or photographic techniques. This means that HDR can capture a wider range of brightness levels, from the darkest shadows to the brightest highlights, much closer to what the human eye can perceive.
In practical terms, HDR images can show details that would otherwise be lost in the shadows or highlights, leading to more vibrant, realistic images with enhanced contrast and color depth. HDR is used in various applications, including photography, video production, and in the display technology of monitors, televisions, and mobile devices to provide a more immersive viewing experience.
