description Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting light sources and selectively adjusting exposure times of individual sensors in image sensors. In one aspect, a method includes capturing multiple images of a scene using a digital imager. The method includes generating a blended image by combining the multiple images, and executing an object detection algorithm on the blended image to locate and identify objects. The method includes determining a region of the identified object that contains a light source, and generating bounding box data around the light source region. The method includes communicating the bounding box data to the digital imager and updating the exposure time of the sensors in the bounding box region.
