Environmentally aware tone mapping for a television display

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions that when executed by at least one processor of a display device cause the at least one processor to execute operations, the operations comprising:

• detecting, by the display device, ambient lighting in a room comprising:
• receiving ambient light measurement data from a plurality of ambient light measurement devices;
• and
• determining distance measurements between the plurality of ambient light measurement devices;
• processing the detected ambient lighting in the room comprising:
• generating a proximal graph based on the ambient light measurement data and the distance measurements;
• and
• generating a raw tone mapping function comprising a three-dimensional vector using the proximal graph;
• generating a color corrected version of media content comprising adjusting a brightness and a color of the media content for displaying on a display of the display device, the adjusting comprising applying the three-dimensional vector to pixels of the media content to compensate for the detected ambient lighting in the room;
• and
• displaying the color corrected version of the media content on the display of the display device.
