Abstract
Systems and methods for a six-primary color system for display. A six-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. The 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 acquiring a multi-primary color system, comprising:
- a camera imager system, wherein the camera imager system includes a plurality of sensors, at least one glass prism, at least one filter, and at least one lens;
- wherein the camera imager system further includes a Red (R) imager, a Green (G) imager, a Blue (B) imager, a Cyan (C) imager, a Yellow (Y) imager, and a Magenta (M) imager;
- wherein the at least one filter includes at least one trim filter, wherein the at least one trim filter includes an R trim filter, a G trim filter, a B trim filter, a C trim filter, an M trim filter, and a Y trim filter;
- wherein the camera imager system is operable to capture a set of camera signal data, and wherein the camera imager system is operable to distribute the set of camera signal data to the plurality of sensors, thereby creating a set of image data;
- and
- wherein the set of image data includes R, G, B, C, M, and Y primary color values.
A system for acquiring a multi-primary color system, comprising:
- a camera imager system, wherein the camera imager system includes a plurality of sensors, a plurality of glass prisms, at least one filter, and at least one lens, and wherein the plurality of glass prisms is arranged into at least three flats;
- wherein the camera imager system further includes a Red (R) imager, a Green (G) imager, a Blue (B) imager, a Cyan (C) imager, a Yellow (Y) imager, and a Magenta (M) imager;
- wherein the at least one filter includes at least one trim filter, wherein the at least one trim filter includes an R trim filter, a G trim filter, a B trim filter, a C trim filter, an M trim filter, and a Y trim filter;
- wherein the camera imager system is operable to capture a set of camera signal data, and wherein the camera imager system is operable to distribute the set of camera signal data to the plurality of sensors, thereby creating a set of image data;
- and
- wherein the set of image data includes R, G, B, C, M, and Y primary color value.
A system for acquiring a multi-primary color system, comprising:
- a camera imager system, wherein the camera imager system includes a plurality of sensors, a plurality of glass prisms, a beam splitter cross prism, at least one filter, and at least one lens;
- wherein the camera imager system further includes a Red (R) imager, a Green (G) imager, a Blue (B) imager, a Cyan (C) imager, a Yellow (Y) imager, and a Magenta (M) imager;
- wherein the at least one filter includes at least one trim filter, wherein the at least one trim filter includes an R trim filter, a G trim filter, a B trim filter, a C trim filter, an M trim filter, and a Y trim filter;
- wherein the camera imager system is operable to capture a set of camera signal data, and wherein the camera imager system is operable to distribute the set of camera signal data to the plurality of sensors, thereby creating a set of image data;
- and
- wherein the set of image data includes R, G, B, C, M, and Y primary color values.
