IMAGE ENHANCEMENT VIA GLOBAL AND LOCAL RESHAPING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18262611 titled 'IMAGE ENHANCEMENT VIA GLOBAL AND LOCAL RESHAPING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for reshaping images between different dynamic ranges to enhance visual perception.
- First reshaping mapping performed on a first image in a first domain to generate a second image in a second domain.
- Second reshaping mapping performed on the second image in the second domain to generate a third image in the first domain.
- The third image perceptually different from the first image in terms of global contrast, global saturation, local contrast, local saturation, etc.
- Display image derived from the third image and rendered on a display device.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in image processing software, digital photography, video editing, and graphic design tools.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the challenge of enhancing visual perception by reshaping images between different dynamic ranges.

Original Abstract Submitted
A first reshaping mapping is performed on a first image represented in a first domain to generate a second image represented in a second domain. The first domain is of a first dynamic range different from a second dynamic range of which the second domain is. A second reshaping mapping is performed on the second image represented in the second domain to generate a third image represented in the first domain. The third image is perceptually different from the first image in at least one of: global contrast, global saturation, local contrast, local saturation, etc. A display image is derived from the third image and rendered on a display device.
