Title: Estimation method for white-point offset of the white balance point
Inventor: TSAI CHIH-HUA
IPC: H04N5/76
Filed: 2002-11-12
Granted: 2003-08-21
Abstract: An estimation method for white-point offset of the white balance point includes determining a white-point plane in a YIQ color coordinate system, according to an intrinsic property of a photographic sensing device, in which the white-point plane has a normal direction. A rotation operation is performed, so as to cause the normal direction of the white-point plane to point to one axis of the YIQ color coordinate system. At this situation, the white-point plane is perpendicular to the axis and has a white-point value in one dimension. An image information described in the YIQ color coordinate system is obtained and the same rotation operation is performed, so as to obtain one image 1-dimensional value. Then, a difference between the image 1-dimensional value and the white-point value in one dimension is computed, and then the white-point offset is estimated. Wherein, the axis of the YIQ color coordinate system is the Y axis after rotation.
