Abstract:
Improved methods are provided for calibrating color on a color display coupled to a computer, which are useful for obtaining calibrated data in a virtual proof network for enabling different color devices to render consistent color. Methods involve user interactions with screens on the display to set color display parameters. An apparatus is also provided for calibrating a sensor which may be used for measuring color of a display in one or more of these methods.

One embodiment of a solid-state color-measuring device includes a plurality of photodetectors and a plurality of filters permanently deposited on the photodetectors, where at least one of the filters includes a single colorant layer having a transmission coefficient as a function of wavelength that descends from a maximum value between approximately 445 and 450 nm to fifteen percent of the maximum value between approximately 485 and 495 nm.
Abstract:
A direct-light-type backlight module uses optical feedback to control point light sources for obtaining a default luminance. Each point light source drives a section in a cyclic time domain to emit a light. A photo detector detects a brightness and the brightness is thus controlled by the optical feedback from the photo detector.
Abstract:
A correction data acquisition method for an image display device, which is used to display a predetermined image using a plurality of primary colors. An offset image at a black level is displayed at an image display section of the image display device. A multiband offset captured data is acquired by capturing the offset image through filters corresponding to primary colors. Primary color images at predetermined signal levels of the corresponding primary colors are displayed sequentially. A multiband primary color captured data is acquired by capturing the primary color images through the filters for the corresponding primary colors. Primary color scale images are displayed by varying input signal levels of the corresponding primary colors sequentially. Primary color scale captured data is acquired by capturing the primary color scale images sequentially. Calculation is made of the offset correction data on the multiband offset captured data, the multiband primary color captured data and the primary color scale captured data, so as to acquire correction data relating to color shading in the image display device.
