An image enhancement system in a vehicle includes a forward looking light sensor, an ambient light sensor, and an electronic control unit. The forward looking light sensor is configured to sense a forward looking light seen by a driver to generate a forward luminance value. The ambient light sensor is configured to sense an ambient light seen by the driver to generate an ambient luminance value. The electronic control unit is configured to calculate a display luminance control value based on the forward luminance value and the ambient luminance value, analyze a video image in a video input signal to determine multiple shades of gray within the video image, adjust the shades of gray in the video image based on the forward luminance value, the ambient luminance value, and the display luminance control value to generate the enhanced video image, and present the enhanced video image to the display.
