TDA4AL-Q1: Highlight around the blue edge

Part Number: TDA4AL-Q1

Hi TI experts,

  We have a problem with highlight around the blue edge,which is based on TI SDK 8.06、J721S2 and DCC tool v2.5. Our image sensor is OX08B40.

As shown in the following figure, the blue edge around the outdoor scene highlighting is very serious. Viewing the raw image, it is found that there is a blue edge in the high light of the raw image,and the related yuv and raw images have been uploaded to the compressed file

  

The blue edge problem seems to be due to chromatic aberration,can the following two modules optimize this problem?

1.LTM

2.CAC

Please help us to sovle these cases
Best Regards

  • Hi wei.pan,

    Sorry about the delay in my response.
    I missed this thread in the past week.

    Are the companding knee points below correct for the share raw image?
    What is the black level after decompanding?

    These extreme blue artifacts are not expected in general and I doubt if CA or LTM can cause such bad artifacts on their own.
    In the raw image, I did see those pixels have very strong blue response, e.g., R:G:B ~= 1:1:4.

    Do they happen in both still and moving vehicles?
    i.e., for the shared example, do you see exactly the same blue artifacts when the car moves and stops?

  • Hi Gang,

    Yes, it's correct

    What is the black level after decompanding?

    The black level is 64

    Do they happen in both still and moving vehicles?
    i.e., for the shared example, do you see exactly the same blue artifacts when the car moves and stops?

    Both still and moving occur, and the phenomenon is the same

  • Thanks for the information!

    I am not sure about the real cause.

    Looking at the linearized 8x8 raw pixels around one blue area starting at 1050x310, I can see that blue channel is consistently 4x~5x as large as other color channels.
    In that case, VISS output would be blue for sure.
