Abstract
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. A six-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 a multi-primary color system, comprising:
- a set of image data, wherein the set of image data includes a bit level;
- an image data converter;
- a set of Session Description Protocol (SDP) parameters, wherein the set of SDP parameters is modifiable;
- and
- at least one display device;
- wherein the at least one display device and the image data converter are in network communication;
- wherein the image data converter is operable to convert the bit level of the set of image data, thereby creating an updated bit level;
- wherein the image data converter is operable to convert the set of image data for display on the at least one display device, wherein once the set of image data has been converted by the image data converter for the at least one display device, the set of SDP parameters is modified based on the conversion;
- and
- wherein the at least one display device is operable to display the multi-primary color system based on the set of image data, such that the SDP parameters indicate that the set of image data being displayed on the at least one display device is using the multi-primary color system.
A system for displaying a multi-primary color system, comprising:
- a set of image data, wherein the set of image data includes a first set of color channel data and a second set of color channel data;
- an image data converter;
- at least one transfer function (TF) for processing the set of image data;
- a set of Session Description Protocol (SDP) parameters, wherein the set of SDP parameters is modifiable;
- and
- at least one display device;
- wherein the at least one display device and the image data converter are in network communication;
- wherein the at least one image data converter is operable to convert the set of image data for display on the at least one display device, wherein once the set of image data has been converted for the at least one display device, the set of SDP parameters is modified based on the conversion;
- and
- wherein the at least one display device is operable to display the multi-primary color system based on the set of image data, such that the SDP parameters indicate that the set of image data being displayed on the at least one display device is using the multi-primary color system.
A system for displaying a set of image data using a multi-primary color system, comprising:
- a set of image data, wherein the set of image data includes a bit level;
- an image data converter, wherein the image data converter includes a digital interface, wherein the digital interface is operable to encode and decode the set of image data;
- at least one transfer function (TF) for processing the set of image data;
- a set of Session Description Protocol (SDP) parameters, wherein the set of SDP parameters is modifiable;
- and
- at least one display device;
- wherein the at least one display device and the image data converter are in network communication;
- wherein the image data converter is operable to convert the bit level for the set of image data to a new bit level;
- wherein the at least one image data converter is operable to convert the set of image data for display on the at least one display device, wherein once the set of image data has been converted for the at least one display device, the set of SDP parameters is modified based on the conversion;
- and
- wherein the at least one display device is operable to display the multi-primary color system based on the set of image data, such that the SDP parameters indicate that the set of image data being displayed on the at least one display device is using the multi-primary color system.
