Low Luminance Dynamic Range Converter for Vehicle Application

This paper presents a low luminance dynamic range converter that includes light recording and adjustment system for vehicle application under light insufficient environment. The development of vehicle electronic technology has improved traditional vehicle function. How to design a safety function system for vehicle become more and more important in vehicle industries. This work designs low luminance dynamic range converter circuit for vehicle application and provides a safety-driving environment. In the proposed method, we adopt video capture system to record light information from driving environment. An adaptive adjustment is adopted to re-arrange the histogram according to the distribution of luminance. Then, we use a series of test images and extract the characteristic value to train the system to reflect practical circumstances. Next, color calibrations and de-noise processing are performed to improve the visual quality. The presented approach considers the realistic driving situation and provides a bright and safe visual environment for driver under light insufficient environment.
