Method of generating a gain of an image frame
View Patent ↗A method of generating a gain of an image frame according to a look up table of gain which is set up based on luminance sensitivity of human eyes is proposed. The method includes setting a gain of an image frame to 1, scanning images of a plurality of front rows of the image frame, averaging the images of the plurality of the front rows of the image frame to generate an average value of the images of the plurality of the front rows of the image frame, finding a gain from the look up table of gain according to the average value of the images of the plurality of the front rows of the image frame, and adjusting remaining rows of the image frame according to the gain to generate images of the remaining rows of the image frame.
1. A method for generating a gain of an image frame comprising:
setting the gain of the image frame to 1;
scanning images of a plurality of beginning dummy rows of the image frame;
averaging the images of the plurality of the beginning dummy rows of the image frame to generate an average value of the images of the plurality of the beginning dummy rows of the image frame;
generating a corresponding gain according to the average value of the images of the plurality of the beginning dummy rows of the image frame; and
generating an image of remaining rows of the image frame according to information of the remaining rows of the image frame and the corresponding gain.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein generating the corresponding gain according to the average value of the images of the plurality of the beginning dummy rows of the image frame is generating the corresponding gain from a look up table according to the average value of the images of the plurality of the beginning dummy rows of the image frame.
3. The method of claim 2 wherein the look up table corresponds to a predetermined operating mode of an optical system.
4. The method of claim 2 wherein the look up table is set up according to luminance sensitivity of human eyes.
5. The method of claim 1 wherein a lower average value of the images of the plurality of the beginning dummy rows of the image frame corresponds to a lower gain.
6. The method of claim 1 wherein a higher average value of the images of the plurality of the beginning dummy rows of the image frame corresponds to a higher gain.
7. The method of claim 1 wherein the image frame is an image frame displayed on an LCD TV.
8. The method of claim 1 wherein the image frame is an image frame displayed on an LCD panel of a digital still camera.
9. The method of claim 1 wherein generating the image of the remaining rows of the image frame according to the information of the remaining rows of the image frame and the corresponding gain is generating the image of the remaining rows of the image frame according to a product of the information of the remaining rows of the image frame and the corresponding gain.
