In image processing, Color Balance often refers to the modification of the color values of an image to generate the correct colors on a particular image display or printing device. A related image process is Color Mapping , the mapping of the distribution of colors in each Pixel of the Image to lie within the 8-bit range (256 colors in any given image) of older computer display or image storage formats. Although the Visual System of a human being can distinguish many more colors than a camera or a photograph, the subtleties can be satisfactorily simulated by artful color balance of the palette in any given image. Some implementations of Color Balance use Histogram Equalization . Color balance is frequently a hardware or software feature of Camera s and also of image manipulation programs like The Gimp and Photoshop . A similar compression, not in Color Space , but in the perception of acoustic information can be seen in Psychoacoustics . SEE ALSO Gamma Correction in television cameras EXTERNAL REFERENCES
