SKIN TONE PROTECTION USING A DUAL-CORE GEOMETRIC SKIN TONE MODEL BUILT IN DEVICE-INDEPENDENT SPACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17816259 titled 'SKIN TONE PROTECTION USING A DUAL-CORE GEOMETRIC SKIN TONE MODEL BUILT IN DEVICE-INDEPENDENT SPACE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for determining and enhancing skin tones in digital content for display on electronic devices.

  • The method involves identifying the coordinates of skin tones in a device-independent color space.
  • A dual-core geometric model is created based on the distribution of skin tones in the color space.
  • The model is then provided to an electronic device to determine the likelihood that a given color in the content is a skin tone.
  • Based on this likelihood, the input content is adaptively enhanced for better presentation on a display connected to the electronic device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Image and video editing software can use this method to automatically identify and enhance skin tones in photos and videos.
  • Video conferencing platforms can utilize this technology to improve the appearance of participants by enhancing their skin tones in real-time.
  • Augmented reality applications can benefit from this method by accurately rendering virtual objects on human skin in a realistic manner.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The method addresses the challenge of accurately identifying skin tones in digital content, which can vary in lighting conditions and color accuracy across different devices.
  • It solves the problem of enhancing skin tones in a way that is adaptive and device-independent, ensuring consistent and realistic representation across various displays.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Users can achieve more accurate and realistic skin tone representation in their digital content without manual adjustments.
  • The adaptive enhancement based on the likelihood of skin tones improves the overall visual quality of the content on displays.
  • The device-independent nature of the method ensures consistent results across different electronic devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

One embodiment provides a method comprising determining one or more coordinates representing one or more skin tones in a device-independent color space. The one or more skin tones can include one or more colors of human skin captured in one or more pieces of content. The method further comprises building a dual-core geometric model based on a distribution of the one or more skin tones in the device-independent color space. The method further comprises providing the dual-core geometric model to an electronic device for use in determining a likelihood that an input color of an input content is a skin tone. The input content is adaptively enhanced, based on the likelihood, for presentation on a display connected to the electronic device.
