System and method for display grid characterization, calibration, and verification
First Claim
1. A system of calibrating a display grid having a plurality of display devices comprising:
- a computer readable medium; and
, a set of computer readable instructions embodied in said computer readable medium for initializing lookup table values representing default luminance levels of said first display device, measuring the output of each one of said plurality of display devices of said display grid, determining a gray rams for each display of said display grid from said output measurements, mapping said gray ramp to L* of CIELAB color model of said first display device, adjusting said lookup table values of each display of said display grid according to said gray ramp mapping and L*, determining a pixel array according to said lookup tables for each of said display devices of said display grid, extrapolating said pixel array into a correction map for each of said display devices of said display grid so that said correction map can be used to display an image with consistent luminance and color across said display grid.

Abstract
This invention is directed to a system and method for creating characterization information and a correction map from a first display grid that can be transmitted and used by a second display grid. Computer readable instructions embodied in a computer readable medium calibrate a first display grid and create an ICC color profile and correction map from said calibration information, such that an image to be displayed across an entire display grid which is segmented into portions corresponding to each display device in the display grid is displayed with uniform luminance and color across the entire display grid. The invention can then store the correction map and characterization information and send the information to a second display device for it to use. Alternatively, the calibration or characterization information can be associated with an image file and sent to a second location for display.

15. A system for calibrating a display grid comprising:
-
a computer readable medium;
a plurality of display devices in communications with said computer readable medium; and
,a set of computer readable instructions embodied in said computer readable medium for initializing lookup table values representing default luminance levels of each one of said display devices of said display grid, segmenting said display devices into a plurality of grid areas, measuring the output of said grid areas according to said initial lookup table values, determining a grey ramp according to said output measurements, mapping said gray ramp to L* of CIELAB color model of said first display device adjusting said lookup table values according to said gray ramp mapping and L*, extrapolating said lookup table values into a correction map so that said correction map can be used to display an image with consistent color and luminance across said display grid. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
