CIRCUITRY FOR IMAGE DEMOSAICING AND CONTRAST ENHANCEMENT AND IMAGE-PROCESSING METHOD

A circuitry for image demosaicing and contrast enhancement and an image-processing method thereof are provided. The circuitry includes a storage device that is used to temporarily store an image and is jointly used by circuits that perform color restoration and brightness reconstruction. The circuitry includes a color restoration circuit for performing image interpolation and a global mapping circuit that performs mapping to obtain brightness of an image according to restored red, green and blue information of every pixel. Further, an edge texture feature decision circuit is provided to obtain each pixel's directionality for color restoration. A brightness estimation circuit utilizes green information of the pixels as the brightness for an area. After that, a color image with the color restoration and brightness reconstruction is outputted.
