Publication number: 20190213960Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of in-situ display monitoring and calibration systems and methods. An image acquisition system captures images of the viewing plane of the display. Captured images may then be processed to characterize various visual performance characteristics of the display. When not in use capturing images of the display, the image acquisition system can be stored in a manner that protects it from environmental hazards such as dust, dirt, precipitation, direct sunlight, etc. A calibration image in which a plurality of light emitting elements is set to a particular color and intensity may be displayed, an image then captured, and then a difference between what was expected and what was captured may be developed for each light emitting element. Differences between captured images and expected images may be used to create a calibration data set which then may be used to adjust the display of further images upon the display.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2019Publication date: July 11, 2019Applicant: NanoLumens Acquisition, Inc.Inventors: Richard C.
