First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- locating a region of interest in an image;
measuring a contrast level of the region of interest; and
automatically adjusting, in response to the contrast level being below a predetermined threshold level, at least one sensor setting to increase the contrast level of the region of interest to at least the predetermined threshold level.
