Color Correction Method for Optical See-Through Displays

A method of correcting a desired color of a pixel to be displayed in an optical see-through display through which a background is visible, the method comprising:

• identifying a display profile of prescribed colors arranged to be rendered by said display;
• identifying a background color of said background associated with the respective pixel;
• determining a perceived profile of predicted colors which are predicted to be perceived by a user by adding said background color of the background to the prescribed colors of the display profile;
• identifying a selected one of the predicted colors which most closely matches the desired color by comparing the desired color to the predicted colors of the perceived profile;
• and
• instructing the display to display the prescribed color which is associated with said selected one of the predicted colors such that an observer substantially perceives the desired color.
