Abstract

An auto white balance adjusting method includes determining a white pixel area according to a standard of a first color space, selecting a plurality of pixels of an image according to the white pixel area, generating an average color value of the plurality of pixels in the first color space, converting the average color value in the first color space to three primary color gains in a second color space, generating three primary color target gains according to the three primary color gains and a color temperature curve, and gradually adjusting a white balance of the image to meet the three primary color target gains according to the average color value in the first color space and the three primary color gains in the second color space. The first color space and the second color space are different.
