DYNAMIC GAMUT CONTROL

摘要

A method of dynamic gamut control is provided for a display having a multi- spectral (typically multi-color) backlight, and sub-pixels corresponding to the different backlight spectra and at least one common sub-pixel. The display may for example be an RGBW display having an RGB backlight. The method comprises iteratively calculating the minimum required backlight intensities that will allow all (selected) color points of an image to be represented by the display. The determination for a light source of the backlight is based on determinations of intensities determined for other light sources in a previous iteration. In some embodiments, the approach allows for a clipping of a number of the color points. The invention may reduce power consumption while maintaining a high image quality and can be implemented computationally very efficiently.
