Abstract
A method of processing an image obtained by a camera includes: obtaining the image using an image sensor; identifying an image signal in a direction perpendicular to a line scan direction of the image sensor, with respect to at least one region of the image; detecting a signal indicating a flicker, using the image signal; and generating an image in which a flicker is corrected, based on the signal indicating a flicker and the image.
Claims17
A method of processing an image obtained by a camera, the method comprising:
- obtaining the image using an image sensor;
- identifying an image signal in a direction perpendicular to a line scan direction of the image sensor, with respect to at least one region of the image;
- determining an average of the image signal as a reference signal;
- detecting a signal indicating a flicker based on a ratio of the image signal to the reference signal;
- and
- generating an image in which a flicker is corrected, based on the signal indicating a flicker and the image.
