Abstract
The invention provides a camera device. In one embodiment, the camera device comprises a sensor and a controller. The sensor detects an image to generate a first image signal with an RGB format. The controller comprises an image processor and a subsequent processor. The image processor converts the first image signal to a second image signal with a YUY2 format. The subsequent processor adjusts a plurality of luma components, a plurality of first chroma components, and a plurality of second chroma components of the second image signal to obtain a plurality of adjusted luma components, a plurality of first adjusted chroma components, and a plurality of second adjusted chroma components of a third image signal. A host receives the third image signal output by the camera, and uses a Direct Show module to convert the third image signal to a fourth image signal with an RGB format.
