Abstract
Various embodiments directed to modifying and enhancing visual perception are disclosed. One embodiment is directed to a camera which includes a lens system for capturing images and a lighting system providing key light above the lens system and providing fill light below the lens system. A processor controls one or more operations of the camera, including automatically enhancing the captured images and presenting the enhanced images on a display. The system and method for modifying visual perception may also be directed to a video camera mirror system, a seating system, a cosmetic package, a lipstick packaging, a polarized mirror, an illuminated cosmetic brush, a personal portrait photography management system and an illumination system for modifying visual perception.
Claims63
A camera comprising:
- a camera body;
- a lens system for capturing an image, and at least a portion of the lens system positioned on the outer surface of the camera body;
- a lighting system positioned on the outer surface of the camera body and proximate to the lens system, the lighting system providing key light above the lens system and providing fill light below the lens system, wherein the key light and fill light are of different intensities during image capture;
- a processor housed within the camera body, the processor controlling one or more operations of the camera including automatically enhancing the captured images;
- and
- a display presented on the outer surface of the camera body and for displaying the automatically enhanced images;
- wherein the processor automatically:
- increases the exposure level of the non-manipulated captured image between 5% and 25%;
- increases the highlight levels of the non-manipulated captured image between 5% to 10%;
- increases the midtone levels of the non-manipulated captured image between 5% to 10%;
- decreases the lowlight levels of the non-manipulated captured image between 5% to 10%;
- adjusts the color temperature of the non-manipulated captured image by increasing the yellow tones between 50% to 150%;
- adjusts the tint of the non-manipulated captured image by decreasing the red tones between 5% to 10%;
- increases the contrast of the non-manipulated captured image between 50% to 150%;
- increases the color saturation of the non-manipulated captured image between 50% to 150%;
- diffuses the midtones of the non-manipulated captured image between 5% to 100%;
- increases the highlight sharpening of the non-manipulated captured image between 5% to 10%;
- compresses the non-manipulated captured image along the x-axis between 5% to 10%;
- and extends the non-manipulated captured image along the y-axis between 5% to 10%.
