along with the beard remark, the post title made me think it was really an “eyepatch” lense addon/mod to te camera.

The right picture is the one color corrected. It obviously isn’t perfect but that was mostly because i didn’t try it adjust it perfectly it was a proof of concept screen shot. And the idea is to definitely NOT do a one size fits all, there are tons of image options that the driver is possible of i just need to figure out how to bring out the controls in V4L

@#3:andrew

I’d guess it’s the right picture… The one that looks overexposed.
The one on the left doesn’t look saturated enough, yet the white balance is okay… The one on the right has more true-to-life color, but it looks a bit washed out, like they’ve maxed the exposure on a webcam whose CCD is not capable of high ISO levels.

I’m hoping this hack puts in place controls for applications to adjust these settings manually, rather than a one-size-fits-all-let’s-just-max-the-white-balance-and-not-give-you-an-option type hack. Either way, well done! Any improvement to a kernel module that improves usability of a device deserves accolades.
