Camera2 API Set Custom White Balance & Temperature Color

Question

I'm trying to set a custom value for the White Balance & temperature color in my camera app. I'm using camera2 API and I'm trying different ways to set this value. I found a method from a excel file to get the right RGB Temperature matrix [Red,Green,Blue] from the White Balance Value between 100 and 100.000.

I attached this method to a Seekbar and its working fine, my problem appear when I try to focus something white, then it becomes pink. Any kind of light looks like a pink torch in the screen.

I'm setting the values in this way:

mPreviewRequestBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.COLOR_CORRECTION_MODE, CaptureRequest.COLOR_CORRECTION_MODE_TRANSFORM_MATRIX);

RggbChannelVector rggb = getTemperatureVector(seekBackSelectedTemperature);

mPreviewRequestBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.COLOR_CORRECTION_GAINS, myRggbChannelVector);

In other way, my method to get the matrix is this one:

 public static RggbChannelVector getTemperatureVector (int WhiteBalanceValue){


    float InsertTemperature = WhiteBalanceValue;
    float temperature = InsertTemperature / 100;
    float red;
    float green;
    float blue;

    //Calculate red

    if (temperature <= 66)
        red = 255;
    else {
        red = temperature - 60;
        red = (float) (329.698727446 * (Math.pow((double) red, -0.1332047592)));
        if (red < 0)
            red = 0;
        if (red > 255)
            red = 255;
    }


    //Calculate green
    if (temperature <= 66) {
        green = temperature;
        green = (float) (99.4708025861 * Math.log(green) - 161.1195681661);
        if (green < 0)
            green = 0;
        if (green > 255)
            green = 255;
    } else
        green = temperature - 60;
    green = (float) (288.1221695283 * (Math.pow((double) red, -0.0755148492)));
    if (green < 0)
        green = 0;
    if (green > 255)
        green = 255;


    //calculate blue
    if (temperature >= 66)
        blue = 255;
    else if (temperature <= 19)
        blue = 0;
    else {
        blue = temperature - 10;
        blue = (float) (138.5177312231 * Math.log(blue) - 305.0447927307);
        if (blue < 0)
            blue = 0;
        if (blue > 255)
            blue = 255;
    }
    RggbChannelVector finalTemperatureValue = new RggbChannelVector(red/255,(green/255)/2,(green/255)/2,blue/255);
    return finalTemperatureValue;
}

Maybe it's because the method of my CaptureRequest is not correct, but I don't find a way to fix it.

Answer 1

Another possible and more simpler solution; factor must be between 0 and 100:

private static RggbChannelVector computeTemperature(final int factor)
{
    return new RggbChannelVector(0.635f + (0.0208333f * factor), 1.0f, 1.0f, 3.7420394f + (-0.0287829f * factor));
}

Answer 2

It worked after change the template to Still_capture or Manual Template and use the next method:

 captureBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.CONTROL_AWB_MODE, CaptureRequest.CONTROL_AWB_MODE_OFF);
        // adjust color correction using seekbar's params
        captureBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.COLOR_CORRECTION_MODE, CaptureRequest.COLOR_CORRECTION_MODE_TRANSFORM_MATRIX);
        captureBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.COLOR_CORRECTION_GAINS, CameraCapabilities.colorTemperature(Integer.parseInt(awbMode)));

public static RggbChannelVector colorTemperature(int whiteBalance) {
    float temperature = whiteBalance / 100;
    float red;
    float green;
    float blue;

    //Calculate red
    if (temperature <= 66)
        red = 255;
    else {
        red = temperature - 60;
        red = (float) (329.698727446 * (Math.pow((double) red, -0.1332047592)));
        if (red < 0)
            red = 0;
        if (red > 255)
            red = 255;
    }


    //Calculate green
    if (temperature <= 66) {
        green = temperature;
        green = (float) (99.4708025861 * Math.log(green) - 161.1195681661);
        if (green < 0)
            green = 0;
        if (green > 255)
            green = 255;
    } else {
        green = temperature - 60;
        green = (float) (288.1221695283 * (Math.pow((double) green, -0.0755148492)));
        if (green < 0)
            green = 0;
        if (green > 255)
            green = 255;
    }

    //calculate blue
    if (temperature >= 66)
        blue = 255;
    else if (temperature <= 19)
        blue = 0;
    else {
        blue = temperature - 10;
        blue = (float) (138.5177312231 * Math.log(blue) - 305.0447927307);
        if (blue < 0)
            blue = 0;
        if (blue > 255)
            blue = 255;
    }

    Log.v(TAG, "red=" + red + ", green=" + green + ", blue=" + blue);
    return new RggbChannelVector((red / 255) * 2, (green / 255), (green / 255), (blue / 255) * 2);
}
