Abstract
An apparatus and method for providing display information generates, independently from an operating system, different screen subsections of a screen image using independent gamut remapping configurations to generate an output image in a target gamut space of a display. The method and apparatus also provides the generated output image for display or may display the generated output image.
Claims20
A method for providing display information comprising:
- generating, independent of operating system control, different screen subsections of a screen image using independent gamut remapping configurations to generate an output image in a target gamut space of a display, wherein generating the different screen subsections comprises selecting from at least first and second gamut remapping coefficients and performing gamut remapping for a first screen subsection using the first set of gamut remapping coefficients and performing gamut remapping on a second screen subsection using the second set of gamut remapping coefficients.
An apparatus comprising:
- logic operative to generate, independently from operating system control, different screen subsections of a screen image using independent gamut remapping configurations to generate an output image in a target gamut space;
- and
- memory that stores at least first and second gamut remapping coefficients for different gamut remapping configurations, the memory operatively coupled to the logic, and wherein the logic is operative to generate different screen subsections of a screen image having independent gamut remapping configurations by selecting from the at least first and second gamut remapping coefficients to perform gamut remapping for a first screen subsection using the first set of gamut remapping coefficients and perform gamut remapping on a second screen subsection using the second set of gamut remapping coefficients.
A non-transitory computer readable medium that comprises executable instructions that when executed by one or more processors causes the one or more processors to:
- generate, independent of operating system control, different screen subsections of a screen image using independent gamut remapping configurations to generate an output image in a target gamut space of a display;
- select from at least first and second gamut remapping coefficients to perform gamut remapping for a first window using the first set of gamut remapping coefficients and perform gamut remapping on a second window using the second set of gamut remapping coefficients;
- and provide the output image for display on a display.
