Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the order in which the images are displayed is such that it can tell a story or can be sequenced in the order they were captured, etc.
For example, when the ambient lighting changes automatically with the display of each image, this often results in dramatic changes in the light output of the ambient light source, resulting in very wild and unpleasant effects such as a flickering disco effect

Embodiment Construction

[0020] refer to figure 1 , the device 100 comprises a first input terminal 101 connected to an input of an extractor 103 . The output of extractor 103 is connected to the input of selector 105 . The output of the selector 105 is connected to the input of the processor 107 . The output of the processor 107 is connected to the input of the controller 113 . A second input of the controller 113 is connected to the second input terminal 110 of the device 100 . The output of the controller 113 is connected to the output terminal 109 of the device 100 .

[0021] The first and second input terminals 101 , 110 of the device 100 are connected to a storage device 111 . Although the storage device 111 is illustrated here as being external to the device 100, in alternative embodiments the storage device 111 may be integrated with the device. The storage device 111 may be a memory device of a computer system, such as a ROM / RAM drive, a CD, a memory device of a camera, a digital photo f...

Abstract

A method of generating a sequence of a plurality of images to be displayed with ambient lighting, the method comprising the steps of: extracting 201 at least one feature of each of a plurality of images; selecting 203 ambient lighting to be displayed with each of said plurality of images on the basis of said extracted at least one feature; determining 205, 207, 209, 211, 213 an order for display of said plurality of images on the basis of said selected ambient lighting to provide a smooth transition in changes in said ambient lighting during display of said plurality of images according to said order.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to methods and devices for generating a sequence of images. In particular, the invention relates to methods and apparatus for generating a sequence of multiple images to be displayed with ambient lighting. Background technique [0002] Still digital image sequences are often used for presentations or for atmospheric displays. Sometimes the sequencing of these images is used for storytelling, where on other occasions the images are sequenced to match the environment. An example is a digital photo frame connected to an ambient light source such as a living light; where for each image, the ambient light is automatically adjusted to match the current image being displayed. This matching can be based on the most dominant color of the image, or the ambient lighting or the color of the light source reflected in the image resulting in an attractive ambient lighting. [0003] For example, the most dominant color of an image may be dark ...
