Abstract: A white balance adjustment method includes capturing a raw image by an image capturing device where an arrangement format of the raw image is BGb/GrR, a predetermined sampling width is used to sample RGB pixels, and obtaining color scale values of each channel. Each channel includes a first buffer space and a second buffer space, the first buffer space storing smaller color scale values, the second buffer storing larger color scale values, an average value of the minimum color scale values stored in the first buffer space is calculated to obtain a reference black, an average value of the maximum color scale values stored in the second buffer space is calculated to obtain a reference white. A color histogram stretching method using the obtained reference black and white adjusts the white balance of the raw image.
