  • Publication number: 20050024698
    Abstract: To provide true color reproduction of documents created by way of a color management free application on an output device, especially a digital electronic projector (beamer), digital documents (D) are, on the output computer (RA) which controls the output device (B), transformed by way of a color management system into the color space of the output device. A program module (PM) is installed on the output computer (RA) in addition to the application software (A), which cooperates with the application software and can access the data of the documents (D) to be output. The program module (PM) includes a color transformation unit (CMM) which, by way of a monitor profile (MP) as source profile and an output device profile (BP) as target profile, transforms the documents (D) into the color space of the output device (B). The transformed documents (D?) are then output by the application software (A) to the output device (B) which reproduces them visually.

  • Patent number: 6439722
    Abstract: A system for color characterization of an self-illuminating imaging display device and synchronization of the appearance of color images displayed on a self-illuminating imaging device is disclosed which is configured to embed a color characterization program in a response to an initial browser based request for a color image to facilitate the color characterization of a self-illuminating imaging device associated with the browser, forward the embedded response to a web browser, and generate a profile characterizing the self-illuminating imaging device using the color characterization program.

  • Patent number: 6036317
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of spectral or colorimetric characterisation of a self-illuminatng imaging system, in which the imaging system produces a color field which is matched visually with a reference color field, wherein a transparent color filter film with known spectral or colorimetric reference values which covers a reference color area of the imaging system is used as a reference color field. The invention also provides for the use of the method of spectral or colorimetric characterisation of a self-illuminating imaging system for calibration of the imaging system.
