  • Publication number: 20060007240
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a system and method for creating characterization information and a correction map from a first display grid that can be transmitted and used by a second display grid. Computer readable instructions embodied in a computer readable medium calibrate a first display grid and create an ICC color profile and correction map from said calibration information, such that an image to be displayed across an entire display grid which is segmented into portions corresponding to each display device in the display grid is displayed with uniform luminance and color across the entire display grid. The invention can then store the correction map and characterization information and send the information to a second display device for it to use. Alternatively, the calibration or characterization information can be associated with an image file and sent to a second location for display.

  • Publication number: 20040111435
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a system and method for selecting composition components or composition formulations for manufacturing plastics or other articles according to desirable selection criteria. This invention includes a computer readable medium containing a set of computer readable instructions and a components database where the set of computer readable instructions allows for receiving selection criteria, comparing the selection criteria with the database information, selecting composition components or composition formulations within a predetermined range of the selection criteria and displaying the selected components or formulations on a color correct monitor so that the user can view the search results without having to view actual physical samples.
