Abstract
An image processing arrangement includes an input to receive an indicator of a power characteristic related to an image processing arrangement and an image processor to process an image based on the indicator of the power characteristic.
Claims25
An image processing arrangement comprising:
- an input configured to receive at least one indicator of a power characteristic related to the image processing arrangement;
- and an image processor configured to process an image based on the at least one indicator of the power characteristic,
- wherein the image processor comprises an illumination modulator configured to change the illumination of at least one region of the image based on the at least one indicator of the power characteristic,
- wherein the image processor further comprises a region of interest determiner configured to determine at least one region of the image,
- wherein the illumination modulator is configured to change the illumination of the at least one region of the image determined by the region of interest determiner,
- wherein the at least one region of the image is illuminated independently of other regions of the image,
- and wherein the illumination modulator is configured to change the illumination of the at least one region of the image further based on a motion value of the at least one region.

A method for image processing comprising:
- receiving at least one indicator of a power characteristic related to the image processing;
- and processing an image based on the at least one indicator of the power characteristic,
- wherein processing the image further comprises modulating the illumination of at least one region of the image based on the at least one indicator of the power characteristic,
- wherein modulating the illumination of at least one region of the image comprises determining at least one region of the image and modulating the illumination of the at least one region of the image determined,
- wherein the at least one region of the image is illuminated independently of other regions of the image,
- and wherein modulating the illumination comprises modulating the illumination of the at least one region of the image further based on a motion value of the at least one region.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by a computer, perform a method for image processing comprising:
- receiving at least one indicator of a power characteristic related to the computer;
- and processing an image based on the at least one indicator of the power characteristic,
- wherein processing the image further comprises modulating the illumination of at least one region of the image based on the at least one indicator of the power characteristic,
- wherein modulating the illumination of at least one region of the image comprises determining at least one region of the image and modulating the illumination of the at least one region of the image determined,
- wherein the at least one region of the image is illuminated independently of other regions of the image,
- and wherein modulating the illumination comprises modulating the illumination of the at least one region of the image further based on a motion value of the at least one region.
3 more elements
