Abstract: Peripheral-vision expanded images are streamed to a video streaming client. The peripheral-vision expanded images are generated from source images in reference to view directions of the viewer at respective time points. View direction data is collected and received in real time while the viewer is viewing display images derived from the peripheral-vision expanded images. A second peripheral-vision expanded image is generated from a second source image in reference to a second view direction of the viewer at a second time point. The second peripheral-vision expanded image has a focal-vision image portion covering the second view direction of the viewer and a peripheral-vision image portion outside the focal-vision image portion. The second peripheral-vision expanded image is transmitted to the video streaming client.

Abstract: A method for performing color conversion between color profiles includes converting source device color profile values to destination device color profile values using one or more plug-in software modules to define intermediate profile connecting space (PCS) values used for the color conversion. A system for performing color conversion between source device color profile values and destination color profile values includes a color mapping system including a source device profile interpreter. A destination device profile interpreter, and a controller are coupled to the source and destination device profile interpreters, and one or more plug-in software modules executable by the controller to define intermediate profile connecting space (PCS) values used for the color conversion.

Abstract: A method for performing color conversion includes configuring a color transformer to perform black point scaling when converting image data from a source device to a destination device. Another method for performing black point adjustment while performing color management conversions includes determining a device independent black reference vector for a device that corresponds to a predetermined set of device dependent values for that device. Converting the device dependent values to device independent data and adjusting the device independent data based on the device independent black reference vector.

Abstract: A color imaging technique includes setting a target value in a device-independent first color space and mapping the target value to a substantially complete point set in a second color space. The point set may include a plurality of points, each of which define substantially the same calorimetric value via a unique combination of colorants. After mapping the target value to a substantially complete point set, a point may be chosen. Moreover, after choosing a point in the point set, device-dependent colorant values defined by the point may be determined. In this manner, the invention may provide control over the colorants that are used to image a particular color.

Abstract: A color mapping method is used in transforming colors between color imaging systems. The method includes using forward transformation profiles that characterize the color imaging systems to generate respective sets of device-independent color values for the color imaging systems. Color conversions are calculated by recursively reducing differences between the respective sets of device-independent color values. Based on these color conversions, a color map is constructed that describes a relationship between the color imaging systems.

Abstract: Techniques are described for color management of halftone prints by direct modification of halftone dot perimeters within bi-level, halftoned bitmap images. According to the halftone print color management techniques, border pixels of the halftone dots are spatially selected to be turned on or off in order to appropriately shrink or grow the halftone dots. The bitmap image may be prepared to create both a halftone proof and printing plates. Therefore, contrary to conventional continuous-tone color management techniques, direct halftone bitmap modification minimizes dot structure differences between data used to produce a proof and corresponding printing plates. The perimeter of a halftone dot within a bitmap image is modified by applying a local threshold value to a distance mapped bitmap image. The bitmap image may be bipolar distance mapped (BDM) to allow for shrinking or growing of the halftone dots by varying a threshold value.

Abstract: Techniques are described for preparing halftone bitmap images for printing on inkjet printers. The techniques may involve exclusive use of low-density inks to reproduce highlight colors and means for reducing the amount of ink applied to the page within “solid” areas while maintaining complete coverage of these areas. The techniques may rely on the high addressability and larger ink palette of recent inkjet printers. For example, some inkjet printers offer seven ink channels: low and high density inks for the cyan, magenta, and black channels, and a single high-density yellow ink. In one embodiment, halftone dots within a bitmap image are separated into perimeter data and core data. The perimeter data is then associated with a low-density ink channel and the core data is associated with a high-density ink channel.
