In this paper, we developed white balance correction processor for Full Color LED Display System which could be display uniformity color and soft light by adjusting brightness of red, green, blue pixel, individually. This processor correct brightness by calculating operating current of each pixel(red, green, blue LED) on the basis of characteristic curve of LED device when we named "a" as a specific characteristic value, "b" as a brightness correction value according to using time, "X" as a operating current value, and "Y" as brightness value. As the results, we solved the reduction problem of brightness for long used LED devices, according to increase entire mean of brightness value by adjusting "b" value from the brightness characteristic function.

Mobile devices are generally using app images which are artificially designed. Accordingly, this paper presents adjusting device brightness based on app image categorization for enhancing the visibility under various light condition. First, the proposed method performed two prior subjective tests under various lighting conditions for selecting features of app images concerning visibility and for selecting satisfactory range of device brightness for each app image. Then, the relationship between selected features of app image and satisfactory range of device brightness is analyzed. Next, app images are categorized by using two features of average brightness of app image and distribution ratio of advanced colors that are related to satisfaction range of device brightness. Then, optimal device brightness for each category is selected by having the maximum frequency of satisfaction device brightness. Experimental results show that the categorized app images with optimal device brightness have high satisfaction ratio under various light conditions.

In this paper, we propose the design and implementation of a desktop LED stand and smart app that automatically adjusts color temperature and illuminance for optimal brightness and eye health by improving the structural problem of the LED stand. It is a tabletop LED stand that supports optimal brightness through color temperature control and heat transfer through infrared LED to relieve eye strain through blood circulation and muscle movement. The LED stand works with the smartphone to automatically adjust the optimal brightness and color temperature for the user's environment. In addition, the brightness of the infrared LED is adjusted to a living frequency of 4Hz to relax the eye muscles and reduce eye strain. This study implemented an effective measured data-based system of previous studies through the color temperature and illumination of LED lighting, and near-infrared rays, and presented meaningful results by conducting an experiment to prove the effect through subjects.

In this paper, we propose a contrast enhancement algorithm using guided image filter (GIF). The GIF is used to divide an HDR image into a base layer and a detail layer. The energy scale of base layer determinate the darkness and brightness of the image. However, the detail information in the base layer is difficult to be displayed because of the high brightness and clusters of low brightness. We propose a contrast enhancement method by adjusting the gray level of base layer by subtracting the mean value of itself. It is combined with the detail layer to preserve the detail information. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance in detail preservation and contrast enhancement.

In this paper, we design and implement a lighting system which has a capability of adjusting brightness and colors of LED module. The lighting systems is consisted of RGB and white LEDs controlled by a micro-processor. All colors in nature can be synthesized in our lighting system by controlling brightness of 4 color LEDs individually. The current flowing to LED is limited to a maximum set value to extend the LED life time using PWM current control. The control module also includes the function that it can save and load brightness and color data set by the user. The implemented lighting system passed the electromagnetic compatibility(EMC) test such that it can be used as a commercial product.

There are a lot of multimedia functions getting included in mobile devices recently, not only simple audio but visual functions as well, such as video playing, game and web browsing. Such the visual multimedia functions brought the strong requirement for much bigger LCD Display and high resolution. And the brightness of LCD is also one of major requirements and it is required to be more bright. However, LCD brightness is limited to increase because of power consumption. It occupies nearly 30% of the whole system power. This thesis suggests an effective and simple method of adjusting the LCD backlight brightness, considering a characteristic of battery and user pattern.

Colours are primarily composed of three properties - hue, brightness, and saturation, However, each property of colour is not independently visually recognised. Previous studies on saturation and brightness found that brightness was sensed differently depending on the degree of purity of the saturation; however, most of the psychophysical experiments used subtractive mixing. Therefore, fundamental research on colour perception based on display is needed. In this study, we conducted a psychophysical experiment and to investigate the visual characteristics of saturation and brightness based on a display with a self-luminous system. After selecting a certain brightness in the additive-mixed display, the experiment was conducted by adjusting the saturation of the main colours. Thus, by analysing the experimental results, we determined whether the results were the same as ones from subtractive mixing and whether the data are meaningful for the characteristics of colour perception. We also suggested future research directions.

Devices capable of capturing and displaying high dynamic range (HDR) images with significantly increased brightness range compared to low dynamic range (LDR) images have been developed and various methods for efficiently converting the brightness range of an image have been developed. In this paper, we propose a reverse tone mapping method using a guided filter to efficiently convert LDR images into HDR images. After obtaining brightness enhancement function (BEF) using a guided filter, we can reconstruct HDR image from one LDR image. In addition, when the image is too bright or dark, the proposed method maximizes the image quality of the reconstructed HDR image by estimating and adjusting the exposure value before expanding the brightness range of images. Computer simulations show that the proposed method produces HDR images of superior quality compared with the conventional methods.

In this paper, we propose a user interface technique based on embedded sensors applying to apps in smart phone. Especially, we implement avata generation application using image filtering technique for photo image in smart phone. In the application, The embedded sensors are used as intuitive user interface to adjust the image filtering effect for making user satisfied effect in real time after the system produced the image filtering effect for avatar. This technique provides not a simple typed method of parameter values adjustment but a new intuitively emotional adjustment method in image filtering applications. The proposed technique can use sound values from embedded mike sensor for adjusting key values of sketch filter effect if the smart phone user produces sound. Similiarly the proposed technique can use coordinate values from embedded acceleration sensor for adjusting masking values of oil painting filter effect and use brightness values from embedded light sensor for adjusting masking values of sharp filter effect. Finally, we implement image filtering application and evaluate efficiency and effectiveness for the proposed technique.
