HSBLC
HSBLC (Highlight Suppression BLC) is used to reduce the brightness of light sources in a
specific area. It is activated only in a low illumination environment to minimize the effects of glare
from bright lights such as spotlights, street lights or headlights in the field of view. Where
‘traditional’ BLC can increase the exposure of a dark area surrounded by a brighter area, HSBLC
can decrease the exposure of bright areas surrounded by darker areas.
