    • A method and apparatus are disclosed for automatic brightness and contrast control in a digital image capture system. A video camera is utilized to scan an image and generate an analog output signal indicative thereof which is utilized to create rows and columns of picture elements. The image is initially scanned utilizing a trial brightness and contrast level and then analyzed to determine the number of saturated picture elements within the scanned image. Thereafter, the brightness and contrast levels are adjusted so that the number of saturated picture elements tends toward a selected small number. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the analog output signal is digitized and each picture element created therefrom has a digital value associated therewith. Analysis of the scanned image is accomplished by counting the number of picture elements having a selected digital value. Additionally, once the brightness and contrast levels have been adjusted to substantially achieve the desired number of selected picture elements the signal level is increased by the amount of one digital state at each end of the spectrum to avoid wasting the final digital state at each saturated state.
    • 公开了用于数字图像捕获系统中的自动亮度和对比度控制的方法和装置。 利用摄像机对图像进行扫描并产生指示其的模拟输出信号,该模拟输出信号用于创建图像元素的行和列。 使用试验亮度和对比度水平最初扫描图像,然后分析以确定扫描图像内的饱和图像元素的数量。 此后,调整亮度和对比度水平,使得饱和像素的数量趋向于选择的少数。 在本发明的优选实施例中,模拟输出信号被数字化,并且由此产生的每个像素具有与其相关联的数字值。 扫描图像的分析是通过对具有选定数字值的像素数进行计数来实现的。 另外,一旦调整亮度和对比度水平以基本上实现期望数量的所选择的图像元素,信号电平将增加频谱的每个端部处的一个数字状态的量,以避免在每个饱和状态下浪费最终的数字状态 。
