Abstract
An image compensating system, medium, and method, including, a shadow area compensating system, medium, and method which may significantly increase the luminance of each pixel in a dark area with respect to pixels positioned in the vicinity of the corresponding pixel and slightly increase the luminance of each pixel in a bright area. The shadow area compensating method includes calculating a representative luminance Lof each pixel having image information by reflecting the luminance of the corresponding pixel and the luminances of pixels positioned in the vicinity of the corresponding pixel, determining a compensation luminance ratio using the calculated representative luminance, and increasing an output luminance on the basis of the compensation luminance ratio.
