20080252653 | CALIBRATING RGBW DISPLAYS - A method for calibrating a display device having four or more channels, including three main channels which include in their gamut a desired display white point, and one or more further channels, said display device also having one or more individual adjustment controls for each channel. The method uses a series of targets, which are each one or more activated display settings at which the luminance and chromaticity coordinates are measured and recorded. | 10-16-2008 |
20080252797 | METHOD FOR INPUT-SIGNAL TRANSFORMATION FOR RGBW DISPLAYS WITH VARIABLE W COLOR - A method for transforming three color-input signals (R, G, B) corresponding to three gamut-defining color primaries of a display to four color-output signals (R′, G′, B′, W) corresponding to the gamut-defining color primaries and one additional primary of the display, where the additional primary has color that varies with drive level, comprising: a) determining a relationship between drive level of the additional primary and intensities of the three gamut-defining primaries which together produce equivalent color over a range of drive levels for the additional primary; and b) employing the three color-input signals R, G, B and the relationship defined in a) to determine a value for W of the four color-output signals, and modification values to be applied to one or more of the R, G, B components of the three color-input signals to form the R′, G′, B′ values of the four color-output signals. | 10-16-2008 |
20090079753 | PREFERENTIAL TONE SCALE FOR ELECTRONIC DISPLAYS - A method of displaying on a display a visual reproduction of an original scene with a preferential tone mapping; said display having a selected display white point and a selected display black point separated by more than 3.5 decades of luminance; the method comprising the steps of capturing original scene parameters, performing a transformation on said captured scene parameters, and displaying a visual reproduction of the scene on the display from the transformed captured scene parameters; wherein said transformation, taken in conjunction with untransformed characteristics of the capturing and displaying steps, results in a reproduced tone mapping having: a. a dynamic range greater than 3.5 decades; b. a first derivative value of minus log reproduced luminance relative to log original scene luminance between −1.1 and −1.51 inclusive for a log scene luminance of −0.6, measured relative to a 100% diffuse reflector in the original scene; c. a first derivative value less than or equal to −1.9 and greater than −4.0 for a log scene luminance of −1.9; d. a first derivative value between −1.5 and −3.0 inclusive for a log scene luminance of −2.0; and e. a first derivative value at a log scene luminance of −2.5 greater than the first derivative value at a log scene luminance of −2.0. | 03-26-2009 |
20100073338 | INCREASING DYNAMIC RANGE OF DISPLAY OUTPUT - A method of controlling an RGBW electroluminescent display system that receives a three-component input image signal having triplets of intensity values in an image range and a highlight range includes transforming at least one of the triplets having an intensity value within the image range to a four-or-more-component drive signal to produce a luminance less than the sum of the corresponding luminance values of the red, green and blue light-emitting elements and transforming at least one of the intensity values within a triplet having an intensity value within the highlight range to a four-or-more-component drive signal to produce a luminance greater than the sum of the corresponding luminance values of the red, green, and blue light-emitting elements. | 03-25-2010 |
