Contrast is an important factor in any subjective evaluation of image quality. It is the difference in visual properties that makes an object distinguishable from other objects and background. Contrast Enhancement method is mainly used to enhance the contrast in the image by using its Histogram. Histogram is a distribution of numerical data in an image using graphical representation. Histogram Equalization is widely used in image processing to adjust the contrast in the image using histograms. Whereas Gamma Correction is often used to adjust luminance in an image. By combining Histogram Equalization and Gamma Correction we proposed a hybrid method, that is used to modify the histograms and enhance contrast of an image in a digital method. Our proposed method deals with the variants of histogram equalization and transformed based gamma correction. Our method is an automatically transformation technique that improves the contrast of dimmed images via the gamma correction and probability distribution of luminance pixels. The proposed method is converted into an android application. We succeeded in enhancing the contrast of an image by using our method and we have tested for different alpha values. Graphs of the gamma for different alpha values are plotted.
