Abstract: A method for processing an image. The method comprises receiving intensity values for each of a plurality of images captured by an image sensor during a detection window. The method comprises identifying, using the intensity values, one or more transitions occurring during the detection window, the one or more transitions each comprising a transition between an image in which a maximum clipping criterion is not satisfied and an image in which the maximum clipping criterion is satisfied. The method comprises, based on the identified transitions, at least one of: adjusting an exposure level of the image sensor; and determining a tonemapping function having a tonemapping strength, and applying the tonemapping function to the intensity values of a current image to generate tonemapped intensity values, wherein the image sensor has a current exposure level when the current image is captured.

Abstract: A Point-Of-Sale (POS) processing environment is encapsulated within a container running on a first Operating System (OS) of a transaction terminal. Peripheral drivers for connected peripherals run on a second and different OS of the transaction terminal. A platform processing environment runs the peripheral drivers on the second and different OS of the terminal. A socket interface is provided for communication between transaction applications of the POS processing environment with the peripheral drivers of the platform processing environment for purposes of allowing the transaction applications to control and access the connected peripherals during transactions performed at the transaction terminal via the socket interface.
