In this episode, Bart Wronski takes Tor, Romain, and Chet through the camera pipeline that powers the Pixel phones. We talked about how cameras capture images, and how the algorithms responsible for Pixel's beautiful images work. If you've ever wondered how HDR+ or Night Sight works, this episode if for you!
