Abstract: A transform model is established by the calibration system for color transformation between a first color space and a second color space. Three first target curves are defined and transformed by the transform model so as to establish three look-up tables. The display is calibrated according to the three look-up tables such that the color temperature of the display may be substantially constant for every gray-level.
