The objective of this project is to develop an effective technique for improving the contrast and color of underwater images by removing the hazy effect caused by the scattering of light in water.
Scattering and absorption of light in water leads to degradation of images captured under the water. This degradation includes diminished colours, low brightness and undistinguishable objects in the image. To improve the quality of such degraded images, we have proposed fusion based underwater image enhancement technique that focuses on improving of the contrast and colour of underwater images using contrast stretching and Auto White Balance. Our proposed method is very simple and straightforward that contributes greatly in uplifting the visibility of underwater images.
Keywords: Fusion, Image Enhancement, Haze Underwater Image, Weight map
