The invention provides a low-light video real-time enhancement method based on a bright channel. The method includes the steps of determining the enhancement coefficient of each pixel point according to the calculated bright channel value, regulating the overall enhancement degree of an image/video according to the mean value of the image, calculating the mean value meanD of low-light video frames, setting the time threshold value T, calculating the bright channel value Jbright(x) of the low-light video frames, calculating the illumination factor gamma(x), and calculating the enhanced video frames BC(x). The blue correction enhancement effect is good. The colors of the enhanced video are true, the over enhancement phenomenon in a traditional method is effectively avoided. The window filtering operation process is avoided. The massive effect problem frequently seen in the prior art is fundamentally solved. The calculation speed is high. The problem that in the prior art, the operation speed is not high enough is solved, the 25 frame per second high-definition video is processed in real time, and the real-time processing requirement is met. The technical scheme is easy to achieve and is free of assistance of any complex peripheral device, the method can be achieved on a personal computer, and cost is low.
