CONTENT CREATIVE INTENTION PRESERVATION UNDER VARIOUS AMBIENT COLOR TEMPERATURES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17807099 titled 'CONTENT CREATIVE INTENTION PRESERVATION UNDER VARIOUS AMBIENT COLOR TEMPERATURES
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for adaptively correcting input content based on ambient lighting conditions to preserve the intended creative intent when displayed on a device.
- The method involves receiving input content and ambient contextual data indicating the lighting conditions of the environment where the content will be displayed.
- The input content includes metadata that represents the creative intent of how it should be viewed.
- The input content is adaptively corrected based on the ambient contextual data to maintain the creative intent.
- Automatic white balancing is applied to the input content to correct its color tone.
- The corrected input content is then provided to the display device for presentation.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in various display devices such as televisions, computer monitors, and mobile devices to ensure that the displayed content appears as intended regardless of the ambient lighting conditions.
- It can be useful in video editing and post-production processes to maintain the desired color accuracy and tone of the content.
- This method can also be implemented in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) devices to adjust the visual content based on the lighting conditions of the user's environment.
Problems Solved
- Ambient lighting conditions can significantly affect the appearance of displayed content, leading to a deviation from the intended creative intent.
- Without adaptive correction, the color tone of the content may appear distorted or inaccurate, impacting the viewer's experience.
- This technology solves the problem of maintaining the creative intent of the content by automatically adjusting its color tone based on the ambient lighting conditions.
Benefits
- By adaptively correcting the input content, the technology ensures that the creative intent of the content is preserved, providing a consistent viewing experience across different lighting conditions.
- Users can enjoy content with accurate color representation and tone, enhancing their visual experience.
- The automatic white balancing feature simplifies the process of correcting color tone, saving time and effort in post-production or display calibration.
Original Abstract Submitted
One embodiment provides a method comprising receiving an input content, and receiving ambient contextual data indicative of one or more ambient lighting conditions of an environment including a display device. The input content has corresponding metadata that at least partially represents a creative intent indicative of how the input content is intended to be viewed. The method further comprises adaptively correcting the input content based on the ambient contextual data to preserve the creative intent, and providing the corrected input content to the display device for presentation. The adaptively correcting comprises applying automatic white balancing to the input content to correct color tone of the input content.
