METHOD AND APPARATUS WITH COLOR CONVERSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17826906 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS WITH COLOR CONVERSION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device that includes an image sensor, a memory, and a processor. The device is capable of capturing color images and converting them using different color conversion matrices based on the noise information obtained from the image sensor.
- The electronic device has an image sensor with a color filter that has multiple color channels.
- The device includes a memory that stores various color conversion matrices and instructions.
- A processor is configured to analyze the noise information of a color image captured by the image sensor.
- Based on the obtained noise information, the processor selects a target matrix from the stored color conversion matrices.
- The selected target matrix is then applied to the color image to generate a color converted image.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in digital cameras, smartphones, and other electronic devices with image sensors to improve the quality of color images.
- It can be beneficial in various industries such as photography, videography, and image processing.
Problems Solved
- The technology addresses the issue of noise in color images captured by image sensors.
- By selecting the appropriate color conversion matrix based on the noise information, the device can enhance the quality and accuracy of the color converted image.
Benefits
- The electronic device can produce color converted images with improved quality and accuracy.
- By adapting the color conversion matrix based on the noise information, the device can effectively reduce noise and enhance the overall image quality.
- This technology provides a more efficient and automated approach to color conversion, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device includes an image sensor including a color filter having a plurality of color channels, a memory storing a plurality of color conversion matrices and instructions, and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain noise information of a color image captured by the image sensor, select a target matrix from among the plurality of the color conversion matrices based on the obtained noise information, and generate a color converted image by applying the selected target matrix to the color image.
