Abstract
The present invention includes systems and methods for a multi-primary color system for display. A multi-primary color system increases the number of primary colors available in a color system and color system equipment. Increasing the number of primary colors reduces metameric errors from viewer to viewer. One embodiment of the multi-primary color system includes Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Yellow, and Magenta primaries. The systems of the present invention maintain compatibility with existing color systems and equipment and provide systems for backwards compatibility with older color systems.
Claims20
A system for displaying image data, comprising:
- at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is operable to process graphics;
- at least one display controller;
- and
- at least one display device;
- wherein the image data includes a set of primary color signals, wherein the set of primary color signals corresponds to a set of values in an International Commission on Illumination (CIE) Yxy color space, wherein the set of values in the CIE Yxy color space includes a luminance (Y) and two colorimetric coordinates (x and y);
- wherein the at least one processor is operable to render the image data for display on the at least one display device, thereby creating rendered image data;
- wherein the transmitted rendered data includes processed Yxy data, wherein the processed Yxy data includes a first channel related to the luminance (Y), a second channel related to a first colorimetric coordinate (x) of the two colorimetric coordinates (x and y), and a third channel related to a second colorimetric coordinate (y) of the two colorimetric coordinates (x and y);
- wherein the at least one display controller is operable to transmit the rendered image data to each of the at least one display device;
- and
- wherein the at least one display device is operable to display rendered image display data.
