20110102604 | MULTIMEDIA PLAYING SYSTEM, APPARATUS FOR IDENTIFING A FILE AND, METHOD THEREOF - A multimedia playing system, an apparatus for identifying a file, and a method thereof are provided. The multimedia playing system comprises a display device, a sensing device, and an identification device. The display device is configured to display the file and has a predetermined area. A plurality of color tags adapted to be displayed on the predetermined area is attached to the file. The sensing device continuously senses the predetermined area to generate a sensed datum. The identification device is connected to the sensing device and receives the sensed data from the sensing device to determine a sensed color code representing each of the sensed data. The identification device further forms a sensed sequence by the sensed color codes and determines a piece of display information corresponding to the sensed sequence. | 05-05-2011 |
20120127324 | Method and System for Display Characterization or Calibration Using A Camera Device - In a class of embodiments, a method and system for characterizing a display device using a camera device (e.g., a consumer grade, mobile camera device) to sense light emitted by the display device during display of one or more test images, and to generate measurement data characterizing the display and/or calibration data useful for calibrating the display device. In some embodiments, the display device is adjusted or calibrated manually in response to such calibration data, for example by user actuation of display device controls in response to calibration data indicative of display setting recommendations. In some embodiments, the test image(s) are embedded in a video stream (e.g., overlaid on arbitrary video content). For example, test images including appropriate timing information and calibration sequences are embedded in a video stream for display by the display device. In some embodiments, the user is prompted to align the camera device (e.g., to position the camera device such that light emitted from a test image at least substantially fills the camera field of view). | 05-24-2012 |
20130107060 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LIGHT COMPENSATION IN A VIDEO PANEL DISPLAY | 05-02-2013 |
20130169826 | METHOD OF VIEWING VIRTUAL DISPLAY OUTPUTS - The disclosed method is directed to viewing a simulated light output generated for a first display on a second display. First, the simulated light output is generated based on qualities of the first display. Next, the simulated light output is compensated for color differences, temporal differences, luminance differences including gamma difference, and differences in viewing environment between the first and the second display, in real-time. Then, the simulated light output that has been compensated for the differences and for viewing environment is output for the second display. | 07-04-2013 |
20140132778 | COLOR CALIBRATION OF COLOR IMAGE RENDERING DEVICES - Color calibration of color image rendering devices, such as large color displays, which operate by either projection or emission of images, utilize internal color measurement instrument or external color measurement modules locatable on a wall or speaker. A dual use camera is provided for a portable or laptop computer, or a cellular phone, handset, personal digital assistant or other handheld device with a digital camera, in which one of the camera or a display is movable with respect to the other to enable the camera in a first mode to capture images of the display for enabling calibration of the display, and in a second mode for capturing image other than of the display. The displays may represent rendering devices for enabling virtual proofing in a network, or may be part of stand-alone systems and apparatuses for color calibration. Improved calibration is also provided for sensing and correcting for non-uniformities of rendering devices, such as color displays, printer, presses, or other color image rendering device. | 05-15-2014 |
20140160301 | Generalized Normalization for Image Display - Certain aspects relate to a method and system whereby any defined system characteristic, property, or parameter can be normalized for farther improving the displayed image quality. The normalization processing can use a generalized calibration process and can normalize a system characteristic, or a system property, and/or parameter to result in a more uniform or accurately displayed image using a generalized image processing method. | 06-12-2014 |
20140192209 | PARALLEL SENSING CONFIGURATION COVERS SPECTRUM AND COLORIMETRIC QUANTITIES WITH SPATIAL RESOLUTION - An optical test equipment/method for display testing that features parallel testing/sensing configuration that covers spectrum and colorimetric quantities with spatial resolution is disclosed. In one embodiment, a spectra-camera, which is a hybrid system consisting of both a single-point spectrometer and an imaging colorimeter, can be configured for concurrent display artifact and parametric testing. An aperture mirror with a hole in the middle splits an image of a test display into two parts. One part of the image passes through the hole and is directed to the spectrometer for display parametric testing. The rest of the image is reflected off the aperture mirror for concurrent display artifact testing with the colorimeter. In another embodiment, a beam splitter can be used instead of an aperture mirror. In yet another embodiment, the single-point high accuracy spectrometer can be used to calibrate the low accuracy imaging colorimeter. | 07-10-2014 |
20140307105 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ADJUSTING DISPLAY PARAMETERS - A method and a system for adjusting display parameters are provided. In the method, at least one real display parameter of a display to be adjusted is measured. A target template in accordance with the at least one real display parameter is searched from a plurality of templates stored in a database and target parameter adjusting data recorded in the searched target template is obtained, in which each template in the database records the at least one reference display parameter of a tested display and the reference parameter adjusting data used to adjust the tested display. Finally, the display is set and adjusted according to the obtained target parameter adjusting data. | 10-16-2014 |
20140307106 | Methods and Systems for Remotely Controlling Electronic Devices - An apparatus for controlling electronic devices has a camera and a transmitter. The camera acquires a first image of an electronic device. The device is configured for remote control. The apparatus identifies a probable identity of the device by comparing the first image to a plurality of stored images of known electronic devices. Test instructions are selected based on the probable identity of the device and sent to the device. A confirmation image of the device is acquired after the test instructions are sent. The apparatus determines from the confirmation image that the state of the device is consistent with execution of the test instructions. The apparatus receives user input specifying a command for the device. Based on the first image, the device is not in a state corresponding to the command, so the apparatus transmits an instruction corresponding to the command to the device. | 10-16-2014 |
20160005343 | CALIBRATOR - There is disclosed a calibrator configured to calibrate a color of a screen of a display device includes an absorption plate formed of a transformable material, comprising a bottom surface attached to the screen of the display device in a vacuum absorption method; a control portion configured to leave space a first portion of the absorption plate from the screen of the display device; a fixed portion configured to press a second portion of the absorption plate to the screen of the display closely; a rotary portion configured to rotatably coupled to the fixed portion in a horizontal direction and to move the control portion in a vertical direction of the display device, when it is rotated; and a circuit unit mounted in the fixed portion to calibrate the color of the display device, such that the calibrator may be fixed in a precise position of the screen and that the screen calibration can be performed precisely and that the calibrator can be attached even to a tilted screen and used widely. | 01-07-2016 |
