Abstract
A head-mounted device is provided that includes one or more image sensors configured to capture a video feed, one or more motion sensors configured to detect motion, and control circuitry configured to analyze a lighting condition of the captured video feed and to perform auto white balancing operations on the captured video feed. An update frequency or a color adaptation speed of the auto white balancing operations can be determined based on the lighting condition and the detected motion. The color adaptation speed of the auto white balancing operations can be adjusted only in response to detecting, using the one or more motion sensors, an amount of motion exceeding a threshold.
Claims24
A method of operating an electronic device having at least one image sensor and at least one motion sensor, the method comprising:
- acquiring a video feed using the at least one image sensor;
- detecting a motion of the electronic device using the at least one motion sensor;
- and
- performing color correction on the video feed based on the detected motion of the electronic device to generate a corresponding color corrected video feed.
A method of operating an electronic device having one or more image sensors and one or more motion sensors, the method comprising:
- capturing a video feed using the one or more image sensors;
- detecting motion using the one or more motion sensors;
- analyzing a lighting condition of the video feed;
- and
- performing color correction on the video feed based on the lighting condition in the video feed, wherein a color adaptation speed of the color correction on the video feed is adjusted in response to detecting motion using the one or more motion sensors.
An electronic device comprising:
- one or more image sensors configured to capture a video feed;
- one or more motion sensors configured to detect motion;
- and
- control circuitry configured to
- analyze a lighting condition of the captured video feed, and
- perform auto white balancing (AWB) operations on the captured video feed, wherein an update frequency of the AWB operations is determined based on the lighting condition and the detected motion.
