Abstract:
1. A method for color data correction during color data transmission from a pickup device to an output device, the pickup device having a front-end color filter structure that prescribes a raw data structure, comprising the following steps: converting raw pixel data of the pickup device to uncorrected interim color pixel values with a reduced number of pixels (N′<N) compared to the pickup device; subjecting the uncorrected interim color pixel values to a color correction calculation; and converting the uncorrected interim color pixel values to corrected interim color pixel values for the output device, wherein the corrected interim color pixel values obtained by color correction of the uncorrected interim color pixel values are written back into the raw data structure, and wherein every uncorrected interim color pixel values (R′, G′, B′) corresponds to a single color filter structure in which the raw pixel data (R, G
