[0002] Automotive head-up displays (HUDs) are becoming more and more popular among consumers due to their safety. Their unique optical structure makes them different from general displays in terms of the final display, and the impact of optical devices on their colors needs to be considered. Therefore, a white balance calibration method different from that of general displays is required.

[0003] Usually, the light emitted by the TFT display in the HUD system will be reflected 3 to 4 times before it finally reaches the human eye. From the above figure, it can be seen that when the incident angle is greater than 27 degrees, each reflection will cause the reflection intensity of light of different wavelengths to differ. After multiple superpositions, the reflection intensity of various colors will differ greatly. If the HUD system is calibrated in the same way as only the TFT display, the final user will see a color cast.
