There are a few problems occur in underwater images such as limited range visibility, low contrast, non uniform lighting, blurring, bright artefacts, color diminished and noise. This paper concentrates on color diminished. Significant application of standard computer vision techniques to underwater imaging is required in dealing with the said problems. Both manual and auto level techniques are used to record the mean values of the stretched histogram. The objective of the paper is to identify which technique is more significant in terms of color correction. It is hoped that the finding will benefit to non divers to visualize the underwater as the real underwater world. © 2012 IEEE. date: 2012 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Bt Shamsuddin, N. and Bt Wan Ahmad, W.F. and Baharudin, B.B. and Rajuddin, M.K.B.M. and Bt Mohd, F.
