The number of zones is fixed to \a kAwbStatsSizeX x * \a kAwbStatsSizeY. For example, a frame of 1280x720 is divided into 80x45 * cells of [16x16] pixels and 16x12 zones of [5x4] cells each * (\a kAwbStatsSizeX=16 and \a kAwbStatsSizeY=12). If the number of cells isn't * an exact multiple of the number of zones, the right-most and bottom-most * cells are ignored. The grid configuration is computed by * IPAIPU3::calculateBdsGrid(). * * Before calculating the gains, the algorithm aggregates the cell averages for * each zone in generateAwbStats(). Cells that have a too high ratio of * saturated pixels are ignored, and only zones that contain enough * non-saturated cells are then used by the algorithm. * * The Grey World algorithm will then estimate the red and blue gains to apply, and * store the results in the metadata.
