METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR MODIFYING ILLUMINATION IN AN IMAGE

摘要

In accordance with an example embodiment a method, apparatus and a computer program product are provided. The method comprises partitioning an image into a plurality of super pixel cell areas and determining surface orientations for the plurality of super pixel cell areas. A surface orientation is determined for a super pixel cell area based on depth information associated with the image. The method further comprises receiving at least one virtual light source indication for modifying an illumination associated with the image. The illumination is modified by modifying brightness associated with one or more super pixel cell areas from among the plurality of super pixel cell areas based on the at least one virtual light source indication and surface orientations corresponding to the one or more super pixel cell areas from among the determined surface orientations for the plurality of super pixel cell areas.
