  • Display correction apparatus, program, and display correction system
    Patent number: 10798373
    Abstract: Display characteristics are calculated using a first captured image for determining ambient light characteristics and a second captured image including the ambient light characteristics and the display characteristics by removing the ambient light characteristics from the second captured image, and display correction is performed based on the display characteristics. This can provide a device that saves time and effort such as moving a color-measurement device when correcting the display characteristics of one or more display devices and that is able to perform display configuration even if a large portion is illuminated by ambient illumination.
    Type: Grant

  • Color adjustment method
    Patent number: 7177053
    Abstract: A method for adjusting colors in a color reproduction device. A user input is received indicating a color adjustment for a color original. This is then used to select a transform. The transform is applied to color values to produce adjusted color values. The adjusted color values are then used in further processing and eventually converted into the printer color space.

  • Method and apparatus for background adjustment in color reproduction devices
    Patent number: 6995866
    Abstract: A method for background adjustment. A background lightness level in an original image is estimated. Pixels are then converted to a luminance-chrominance color space. Pixels have lightness levels equal to the background lightness level are mapped to a value corresponding to white as background pixels. Chroma values for the background pixels are compared to a threshold and adjusted as needed, either by adjusting the lightness value or by removing the chrominance values. The luminance-chrominance data is then converted to output space.
