DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TRANSMISSION, DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RECEPTION, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING PICTURE, DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING PICTURE DATA, AND DISTRIBUTION MEDIUM

摘要

RGB data outputted from a transmission-side CRT monitor (3) are converted into XYZ data by means of a profile P1 stored in a converter (11) and outputted as L<+>M<+>S<+> data, then a visual environment converting circuit (12) performs a correcting process on the XYZ data, in accordance with the visual environment on the transmission side by referring to detecting signals from sensors S1 and S2. Another visual environment converting circuit (15) performs a correcting process on the L<+>M<+>S<+> data in accordance with the visual environment on the reception side by referring to detecting signals from sensors S3 and S4, and supplies the obtained XYZ data to a converter (16). The converter (16) converts the XYZ data into RGB data by referring to a profile P4 and outputs the RGB data to a CRT monitor (4). Therefore, the appearances of the pictures of a transmission-side input device and a reception-side output device can be made equal to each other.
