Wide-Gamut Displays
Emerging wide-gamut displays, enabled mainly by LED-backlit direct-view LCDs, will provide users with more utility and greater entertainment. But stumbling blocks remain for full adoption. How can display makers ensure a smooth transition to a wide-gamut world? By Charles Poynton
Metamerism and Multi-Primary Displays
The media in our eyes yellow with age, causing us to make different color matches as we get older. For multi-primary displays that push the gamut limits to colors that previously could not be rendered, metamerism can result: Screen colors that match in theory may not match to you, the viewer. To satisfy an aging customer population, manufacturers must minimize this problem. Here is how it can be done. By Michael H. Brill and James Larimer
Beyond the Locus of Pure Spectral Color and the Promise of High-Dynamic-Range Display Technology
In emerging media technologies, particularly High-Dynamic-Range (HDR) displays, much more is possible in achieving brighter and more-vibrant colors and a richer visual experience that may even transcend what we see every day. Here is how it works. By Rodney L. Heckaman and Mark D. Fairchild
Color Displays: The Spectral Point of View
Color is closely related to the light spectrum. Nevertheless, spectral properties are seldom discussed in the context of color displays. Here, a novel concept for a display for color-critical applications - which is designed to reproduce the light spectrum rather than just color - is presented. By Dan Eliav and Moshe Ben-Chorin
