Abstract

The present invention provides an automatic exposure method, which is applied to a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal includes a color camera and a black-and-white camera. The automatic exposure method includes: acquiring a color image and a black-and-white image synchronously collected by the color camera and the black-and-white camera; Calculating the color brightness value of the color image and the black and white brightness value of the black and white image; adjusting the exposure parameters of the color camera according to the color brightness value and the black and white brightness value; according to the adjusted exposure parameters, Controlling the color camera for exposure. The invention also provides a corresponding mobile terminal. The automatic exposure method provided by the present invention combines a color camera with a black-and-white camera to adjust the exposure parameters of the color camera, and can perform more scientific exposure settings for the current scene to achieve more accurate exposure, thereby effectively solving the shooting problem caused by the low dynamic range of the color camera The problem of overexposure or overdarkening of local areas of the image.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of mobile communication, in particular to an automatic exposure method and a mobile terminal. Background technique [0002] With the popularity of smart phones, users have higher and higher requirements for the image display quality of smart phones. Exposure is a key factor that determines the final effect of photos. At present, the automatic exposure method is widely used in smart phone cameras. [0003] The existing automatic exposure metering methods of smartphone cameras are set based on the image information of the color camera, and the weight of most metering methods such as spot metering, central weighted metering, and average metering are directly set , only the weight of the multi-area evaluative metering method is dynamically set based on the differences between different areas of the current frame. No matter which metering method is based on the image information of the current color camera, only some meth...
