The session "Keep colors consistent across captures" at WWDC 2024 focuses on the concept of color constancy and how it can be applied to capture consistent colors in photos regardless of ambient lighting conditions. This is particularly useful for scenarios like product photography and monitoring changes in skin tones over time.

Key Points from the Session:

1. Introduction:

   • The importance of light quality in photography and how it affects colors and textures.
   • Examples of how ambient light contributes to the aesthetics of photos.

2. What is Color Constancy?:

   • Explanation of color constancy as a property of human visual perception.
   • How the constant color feature in iPhone captures the true colors of objects, people, and materials without being affected by ambient light.

3. How Constant Color Works:

   • The constant color feature provides a new capture mode that ensures consistent color rendering across different lighting conditions.
   • This is particularly beneficial for capturing accurate skin tones and product colors.

4. Code Examples and Demos:

   • Demonstrations of how to use the constant color API in apps.
   • Examples of capturing images with and without constant color to show the difference in color consistency.

5. Validation:

   • Discussion on how the constant color feature was validated to ensure accurate color rendering.
