Abstract:
A digital camera comprises an image sensor for providing initial sensor image data and final sensor image data; a lens for exposing the image of a scene onto the image sensor; an exposure control system for adjusting an exposure level of a final image on the image sensor in response to a scene type; and a processor for processing the initial sensor image data to select one of a plurality of scene types, and to process the final sensor image data in response to the scene type.

Claim (Index 1):
An image processing device comprising:\n an image sensor configured to provide initial sensor image data and final sensor image data; a lens configured to expose an image of a scene onto the image sensor; a processor configured to:\n generate an array of average values for a plurality of n\u00d7m regions based on the initial sensor image data; \n use the array of average values to select one of a plurality of pre-determined scene types; and \n cause an exposure control system to adjust the exposure level for a final image according to the selected scene type; and \n the exposure control system configured to adjust the exposure level for capturing the final image on the image sensor by setting, according to signals from the processor, the exposure level for the final image to be a default scene exposure level changed by a pre-determined relative exposure level corresponding to the selected scene type, wherein the relative exposure level change is an increase in exposure if the scene type is low-contrast scene, night scene, or text/document scene, and a decrease in exposure if the scene type is high-contrast scene, sky scene, or color-saturated scene.
