  • Publication number: 20240344975
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an imaging system which is designed for two-dimensional, spatially resolved measurement of radiometric and/or photometric measured variables, for example the color coordinates of light emitted by a test object. An image sensor is provided for receiving a first part of the light and for generating a two-dimensional digital image of the light emission of the test object. A measuring unit receives a second part of the light and detects radiometric and/or photometric measured variables for different measuring spots or measuring angles. A computing unit transforms the image values of at least a few image points of the generated image, the transformation taking into account the measured variables detected for the measuring spots or measuring angles. The disclosure provides a system which is improved in relation to the prior art. For example, determining the color coordinates when measuring displays with spatially inhomogeneous spectral emission is more precise than in the prior art.

  • Patent number: 10088364
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for two-dimensional, spatially resolved measurement of tristimulus values of light emitted from a plurality of positions on a sample. It is an object of the invention to provide an improved method and system for spatially resolved chromaticity and luminance measurement in a standardized color space for display testing. The method of the invention comprises the steps of: directing a first portion of the light to an RGB camera which produces a two-dimensional map of RGB color values; transforming the RGB color values into first tristimulus values to produce a map of tristimulus values; directing a second portion of the light to a colorimeter which produces second tristimulus values; deriving a tristimulus correction by comparing the second tristimulus values with at least a subset of the first tristimulus values; and applying the tristimulus correction to the first tristimulus values to produce a corrected map of tristimulus values.
