  • Publication number: 20240233316
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus and an image processing method are provided. The image processing apparatus includes a first image capturing apparatus, a second image capturing apparatus, a storage apparatus, and a processor. The first image capturing apparatus captures a color image. The second image capturing apparatus captures a grayscale image. The storage apparatus stores multiple program modules. The processor is coupled to the first image capturing apparatus, the second image capturing apparatus, and the storage apparatus. The processor is configured to obtain a reference area according to the grayscale image, calculate a luminance value according to the color image and the reference area, adjust luminance of the color image according to the luminance value, and output the adjusted color image.

  • Patent number: 10873805
    Abstract: A sound processing apparatus and a sound processing method thereof are provided. The following steps are included. Multiple first sound signals corresponding to multiple sound reception sources are obtained. A sound source position of a sound source relative to the sound reception sources is determined. A relationship among multiple sound receiving directions corresponding to the sound reception sources is determined according to the sound source position. The sound receiving directions relate to directionality of the sound reception sources. A second sound signal is outputted from the first sound signals based on the relationship among the sound receiving directions. Accordingly, an optimal sound receiving direction corresponding to the sound source can be adjusted automatically, so as to improve sound quality.
