An Auto-exposure algorithm for detecting high contrast lighting conditions
JiaYi Liang, Yajie Qin, Zhiliang Hong · 2007
The proposed algorithm provides fast and accurate auto-exposure capability for digital still cameras. For normal lighting conditions, the number of preview frames and the exposure error are within 3.5 frames and 3.92%. For high contrast lighting conditions, the number of preview frames and the exposure error are within 8.8 frames and 6.56%. Furthermore, it offers accurate detection for both back lit and excessive front lit conditions at the same time and make proper exposure to the main object.
