Method for dynamically adjusting video brightness
First Claim
1. A method for dynamically adjusting video brightness, the method comprising at least the steps of:
- (a). performing histogram equalization to a video brightness/color signal to generate an equalization brightness curve;
(b). comparing the brightness of each pixel before and after histogram equalization with the brightness of every pixel one by one to generate a comparison difference value, adjusting the brightness of said pixel to be not larger than three times of said comparison difference value and not smaller than a fourth of said comparison difference value; and
(c). comparing the brightness of each pixel, one by one, before and after histogram equalization to generate a brightness difference value, adjusting the brightness of said pixel to be not larger than a largest brightness value and not smaller than a smallest brightness value.

Abstract
A method for dynamically adjusting video brightness performs histogram equalization on a video YUV brightness/color signal to generate an equalization brightness curve. The brightness of each pixel is compared with every pixel of the video frame before and after histogram equalization to generate a comparison difference value. The brightness of the pixel is adjusted so that the brightness difference after adjustment won'"'"'t be larger than three times of the comparison difference value and won'"'"'t be smaller than a fourth of the comparison difference value. The brightness of each pixel before and after histogram equalization is compared, one by one, to generate a brightness difference value. The brightness difference value is adjusted so that the brightness difference after adjustment won'"'"'t be larger than a largest brightness value and won'"'"'t be smaller than a smallest brightness value. The brightness of each video frame can be properly adjusted to accomplish clearer displaying effect.
