Display Calibration with Reusable Baseline Color Profiles
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display calibration methods are time-consuming and inefficient, particularly when multiple color presets are required, as they involve repeated front-of-screen measurements and recalibrations, which can take hours and disrupt user workflow.
Innovation Solution
The process of display measurement and calibration is separated from color preset generation, allowing dynamic and on-demand creation of color presets without additional front-of-screen measurements, using a calibration engine to set the display device in a linear light condition and a color preset engine to generate presets based on this condition.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If repeated front-of-screen measurements and recalibrations are performed to generate multiple color presets, then color accuracy is improved, but calibration time increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the color preset generation process into two independent parts: (1) a single calibration process that establishes a baseline color profile, and (2) multiple color preset generations that reuse this baseline without requiring repeated measurements. This segmentation allows the calibration to be performed once while enabling multiple color presets to be generated from the same calibration data, thereby reducing calibration time while maintaining color accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs the calibration process in advance as a preliminary action, establishing a baseline color profile that can be reused for generating multiple color presets. By completing the time-consuming measurement and calibration work beforehand, the system eliminates the need to repeat this process for each color preset, thus significantly reducing the time required for subsequent preset generations while preserving color accuracy.
2Measurement precision
If multiple color presets are generated using traditional calibration methods, then color accuracy is improved, but user workflow disruption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The calibration process is performed as a preliminary action before the user needs multiple color presets. By establishing the baseline color profile in advance, the system enables rapid generation of color presets without interrupting the user's workflow, thus maintaining both color accuracy and workflow continuity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses the baseline color profile as a template that can be copied and reused for generating multiple color presets. Instead of requiring the user to undergo repeated calibration processes that would disrupt workflow, the system copies the established baseline data to create additional color presets, thereby preserving both accuracy and workflow efficiency.
3Measurement precision
If calibration is performed for each color preset, then color accuracy is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the calibration functionality into a single baseline calibration process that serves as the foundation for all color presets. This segmentation simplifies the overall system architecture by eliminating the need for multiple independent calibration processes, thereby reducing device complexity while maintaining color accuracy through the reusable baseline profile.
Solution Approach 2:
The baseline color profile serves as a universal foundation that can be used to generate multiple different color presets. This multi-functionality reduces device complexity by having a single calibration process that supports numerous color preset generations, rather than requiring separate calibration mechanisms for each preset.
