    摘要: An apparatus, and an associated method, facilitates selection of white balancing to adjust the color cast of a captured image. A quantum dot element is positioned to receive incident light associated with a scene forming an image that is to be captured. Incident light upon the quantum dot element causes photonic emissions that are detected and converted into electrical form. The electrical representations of the photonic images are used to measure or determine a color ratio. The value of the color ratio is utilized to select white balancing of a captured image, captured either prior to, concurrent with, or subsequent to, the color-ratio determination.

    摘要: A camera unit generates a processed digital image by augmenting color image data with infrared image data according to the level of ambient light exposure. The camera has an ambient light sensor that detects the level of ambient light in the camera unit and an image sensor that provides image data. One or more quantum dot layers may be included in the image sensor. A camera controller adapts the camera unit for operation in different modes that are selectable based on the levels of detected ambient light. The image data is processed into a digital image, according to the selected mode of operation for the camera unit, using color image data only when the level of ambient light is high, but augmenting the color image data with infrared image data when the level of ambient light is low to increase the color luminance of the final processed digital image.
