Vivo Announces SuperHDR

One of the largest smartphone makers in China, Vivo, announces its AI-powered Super HDR that follows the same principles as regular multi-frame HDR but merges more frames.

The Super HDR’s DR is said to reach up to 14 EV. With a single press of the shutter, Super HDR captures up to 12 frames, significantly more than former HDR schemes. AI algorithms are used to adapt to different scenarios. The moment the shutter is pressed, the AI will detect the scene to determine the ideal exposure strategy and accordingly select the frames for merging.

Alex Feng, SVP at Vivo says “Vivo continues to push the boundaries and provide the ultimate camera experience for consumers. This goes beyond just adding powerful functions, but to developing innovations that our users can immediately enjoy. Today’s showcase of Super HDR is an example of our continued commitment to mobile photography, to enable our consumers to shoot professional quality photos at the touch of a button. Using intelligent AI, Super HDR can capture more detail under any conditions, without additional demands on the user.”
