Abstract
A color enhancement system may enhance color components in an image. In one embodiment, the color enhancement system suppresses banding by combining an input color value with an enhanced colored value. In another embodiment, local variation in saturation values around a pixel may be used to determine a modification of an input saturation value for color enhancement. As still another embodiment, flickering between frames may be suppressed by combining a histogram that counts the number of times a given pixel value occurs in a particular image with a historical histogram that keeps track of an average of how often given values have occurred in previous frames.
