1. A method for constructing a motion-compensated composite image of a scene, the method comprising:

  • (i) acquiring a plurality of images of a scene over time, the plurality of images including an earlier image of the scene and a later image of the scene;

    (ii) estimating relative motion between the earlier and later images;

    (iii) computing an exposure parameter value based upon the relative motion estimated between the earlier and later images;

    (iv) acquiring, using the computed exposure parameter value, a new image of the scene; and

    (v) compositing the earlier, later and new images of the scene to produce a motion-compensated composite image of the scene.
