High dynamic range

Inverse tone mapping

Unfortunately, most displays we use today, like TVs, laptops, and smartphones, are SDR displays. While technology is improving, these displays can't natively showcase the entire spectrum of light information present in HDR content. But at least there is a way to potentially enhancing the visual experience for non-HDR content, this is where ITM comes into play.

Tools

• Windows Auto HDR (Built-in Windows feature)
• Special K: HDR Retrofit
• NvTrueHDR

Alternative tools

• ReShade shaders such as EndlesslyFlowering's ReShade HDR shaders
• Some of the standalone emulators comes with enhancement post-processing option for HDR such as Dolphin emulator[1][2].
• There are some shader presets for HDR displays or non-HDR but high-dim displays.
• NVIDIA RTX Video HDR: Enhancing SDR videos with AI-Powered HDR Conversion.[3]
