Electronic device with dual camera based automatic white balance image adjustment

A method comprising:

• receiving first image content from a first image capturing device of at least two image capturing devices of an electronic device, the first image capturing device having a first field of view (FOV);
• receiving second image content from a second image capturing device of at least two image capturing devices, the second image capturing device having a second FOV that differs from the first FOV;
• identifying, during an image capturing process for a target image within the first FOV, whether a condition exists that causes a distortion in a white balance of the first image content, wherein identifying whether the condition exists comprises determining, for the first image content, a first value related to a proportion of an image having a predominant color temperature sufficient to cause the distortion;
• in response to identifying that the condition exists:
• capturing the second image content within the second FOV;
• determining an automatic white balance (AWB) value for the second image content;
• and
• automatically adjusting the first image content using the AWB value for the second image content.

A computer program product comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable storage device;
• and
• program code on the computer readable storage device that when executed by a processor associated with an electronic device, the program code enables the electronic device to provide functionality of:
• receiving first image content from a first image capturing device of at least two image capturing devices of an electronic device, the first image capturing device having a first field of view (FOV);
• receiving second image content from a second image capturing device of at least two image capturing devices, the second image capturing device having a second FOV that differs from the first FOV;
• identifying, during an image capturing process for a target image within the first FOV, whether a condition exists that causes a distortion in a white balance of the first image content, wherein identifying whether the condition exists comprises determining, for the first image content, a first value related to a proportion of an image having a predominant color temperature sufficient to cause the distortion;
• in response to identifying that the condition exists:
• capturing the second image content within the second FOV;
• determining an automatic white balance (AWB) value for the second image content;
• and
• automatically adjusting the first image content using the AWB value for the second image content.
