Description
Adds shot noise to images using a Gaussian approximation of a Poisson distribution with lambda equal to number of electrons generated from the sensor pixel. This approximation is valid because at the point at which it breaks down (around <= 10 electrons), the noise is below 1 color level (1/255 for 8-bit pixel depth) for typical FWC values, so the difference between Gaussian and Poisson is practically imperceptible. Shot noise can be enabled or disabled from the protobuf.Verification
Images were verified visually by comparing the images with and without shot noise as well as images containing just the noise itself. Testing was also done on Windows and Mac.Documentation
None.Future work
Other noise corruption effects such as dark current.
