Abstract

An exemplary method includes a demosaic module receiving a frame of raw pixels having values in a first color space, generating vertical and horizontal color difference signals using information from the frame of raw pixels, generating reconstructed color pixel values for raw pixels that are missing captured color pixel values of a first color component of the first color space, transforming the captured and reconstructed color pixel values of the first color component to brightness pixel values in a second color space, and transforming the vertical and horizontal color difference signals into chrominance pixel values in the second color space.
