At Google’s I/O keynote livestream, it was announced that the company is trying to make Pixel cameras more inclusive of darker skin colors by improving color accuracy and exposure. This relates back to an old but long-standing problem that shows that image processing is drawn to be turned for lighter skin tones and not that of darker subjects.

The tech giant is working on its computational photography algorithms to get better photos of darker skin tones. This involves altering auto white balance to minimize stray light and bring attention to natural brown tones. This will not only help take better photos of darker skin tones but also ‘curly and wavy’ hair types in selfie and portrait modes.
