Tone Mapper is a a small application to compare and apply various tone mapping operators. It features an interactive preview and a simple GUI to tweak different parameters.
It was written for the Multimedia Communications course at ETH Zürich (Fall Semester 2015).
Available operators:
- Linear - Gamma correction only
- sRGB - Conversion to the sRGB color space

Currently, only OpenEXR (.exr) input files are supported. A sample image (example.exr) is included in the project directory.
