Abstract
An apparatus includes a processor circuit and a correction circuit. The processor circuit may be configured to receive a sequence of pictures. The correction circuit may be configured to (i) generate multiple smooth first samples by spatially smoothing multiple first samples selected from a first picture of said sequence of pictures, (ii) generate multiple smooth second samples by spatially smoothing multiple second samples selected from a second picture of said sequence of pictures, (iii) generate multiple adjusted first samples by combining said smooth first samples, said first samples and said smooth second samples, and (iv) generate multiple values based on said second samples and said adjusted first samples. The first samples and the second samples may have different levels of a lighting condition. The adjusted first samples and the second samples may have similar levels of the lighting condition.
