    Abstract: A head-mounted device may include one or more scene cameras configured to capture images of a scene, one or more hands sensors configured to detect a user's hands, one or more supplemental emitters configured to provide supplemental illumination for the user's hands, and control circuitry configured to determine whether the user's hands are sufficiently illuminated, to determine whether the captured images are properly exposed, and to adjust the one or more supplemental emitters based on whether the user's hands are sufficiently illuminated and based on whether the captured images are properly exposed. The control circuitry can activate the supplemental emitters when the captured images are too dark or when one of the detected hands is too dark. The control circuitry can deactivate the supplemental emitters when one of the detected hands is too bright or when the captured images are overly exposed.
