Abstract
A method includes obtaining an image frame using at least one imaging sensor. The method also includes selecting one of a plurality of lightness models based on visual quality of the image frame, applying the selected lightness model to the image frame in order to generate a modified image frame, and rendering an image for display based on the modified image frame. The visual quality is associated with a lightness condition of the image frame. Different lightness models are associated with different lightness conditions.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one imaging sensor configured to capture an image frame;
- and
- at least one processing device configured to:
- select one of a plurality of lightness models based on visual quality of the image frame, the visual quality associated with a lightness condition of the image frame, different lightness models associated with different lightness conditions;
- apply the selected lightness model to the image frame in order to generate a modified image frame;
- and
- render an image for display based on the modified image frame.
A method comprising:
- obtaining an image frame;
- selecting one of a plurality of lightness models based on visual quality of the image frame, the visual quality associated with a lightness condition of the image frame, different lightness models associated with different lightness conditions;
- applying the selected lightness model to the image frame in order to generate a modified image frame;
- and
- rendering an image for display based on the modified image frame.
A non-transitory machine readable medium containing instructions that when executed cause at least one processor of an electronic device to:
- obtain an image frame;
- select one of a plurality of lightness models based on visual quality of the image frame, the visual quality associated with a lightness condition of the image frame, different lightness models associated with different lightness conditions;
- apply the selected lightness model to the image frame in order to generate a modified image frame;
- and
- render an image for display based on the modified image frame.
