Method and system for evaluating performance of image display device

A method for evaluating performance of an image display device, which comprises:

• displaying at least either a luminance evaluation image or a chromaticity evaluation image on said image display device, said luminance evaluation image having a determination portion configured such that luminance changes progressively between a low luminance region defined to have luminance levels lower than an upper limit of luminance displayable on said image display device and a high luminance region defined to have luminance levels higher than the upper limit of luminance displayable on said image display device, said chromaticity evaluation image having a determination portion configured such that chroma changes progressively between a low chroma region defined to have chroma levels lower than an upper limit of chroma displayable on said image display device and a high chroma region defined to have chroma levels higher than the upper limit of chroma displayable on said image display device;
• and
• evaluating characteristics of the image display device from a position of a boundary of the luminance or chroma saturation region in the determination portion of said luminance or chroma evaluation image.
