Abstract

Brightness values of image frames are collected and counted to form a brightness distribution. The brightness distribution of the image frames is compared with predetermined brightness distributions. Brightness values of all pixels of successive image frames are adjusted according to a result of the comparison, so as to improve image contrast.
