The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for increasing the perceived quality of displayed images. This is achieved in a variety of ways including the use of a plurality of device specific display characteristics when preparing images for display. It is also achieved through the monitoring of display device and/or ambient light conditions, e.g., on a periodic basis, and using the obtained information when controlling display output. Another approach to improving the perceived quality of displayed images involves the use of information relating to a specific user's ability to perceive image characteristics such as color. By customizing display output to an individual user's own physical perception capabilities and/or viewing characteristics it is possible to enhance the image quality perceived by the individual viewer as compared to embodiments which do not take into consideration individual user characteristics.
In a computing system having a display device that has a plurality of pixels, each pixel having a plurality of pixel sub-components of different colors that may each be treated as independent luminous intensity sources, a method for displaying an image on the display device in a manner that balances a particular user's perception of color and resolution, the method comprising the following:
A computer program product for use in a computing system having a display device that has a plurality of pixels, each pixel having a plurality of pixel sub-components of different colors that may each be treated as independent luminous intensity sources, the computer program product for implementing a method for displaying an image on the display device in a manner that balances a particular user's perception of color and resolution, the computer program product comprising one or more computer-readable media having thereon computer-executable instructions that are structured such that, when executed by one or more processors of the computing system, causing the computing system to perform the following:
