[Reset] Press this button if you would like to reset the webcam settings to the default factory settings. [Restore] Press this button if you would like to restore your personal preferred settings. [Save] Press this button if you would like to save your personal preferred settings. [Auto White Balance] Most light sources are not 100% pure white but have a certain 'color temperature'. Normally our eyes compensate for lighting conditions with different color temperatures. If the automatic white balance is selected, the webcam will look for a reference point which represents white. It will then calculate all other colors based on this white point and compensate the other colors accordingly, just like the human eye.
