Generating prints with multiple appearances
The present disclosure generally relates to printed structures and methods for generating the same. The printed structure includes a first surface including a first ink type arranged in a first image and a second surface at least partially aligned with at least a portion of the first surface, the second surface including a second type of ink arranged in a second image. The first and second surfaces are physically separated from one another, the first image is visible under a first set of light wavelengths and the second image is visible under a second set of light wavelengths.
HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE (HDR) DATA CONVERSION AND COLOR SPACE MAPPING
A method and apparatus for image processing. A data conversion and color-space mapping (DCM) circuit includes an inverse opto-electrical transfer function (IOETF), a color-space converter, and a color-space re-mapper. The IOETF receives image data for one or more frames acquired by an image capture device and transfers the image data from a non-linear domain to a linear domain. The color-space converter converts the linear image data from a first color space to a second color space, where each of the first and second color spaces is based on a gamut of the image capture device. The color-space re-mapper processes the image data to be rendered on a display device by remapping the converted image data from the second color space to a third color space, where the third color space is based on a gamut of the display device.
Image processing method and device
An image processing method includes obtaining color information of each of a plurality of pixels included in an input image signal; determining whether a color value of each of the plurality of pixels corresponds to a gamut boundary of the input image signal based on the obtained color information; determining a gain value for allowing the color value of at least one of the plurality of pixels to correspond to the gamut boundary, based on a result of the determining; and converting the color value of the at least one pixel based on the determined gain value.
Display device, image processing apparatus, control methods thereof, and display system
Provided is a display device that illuminates a printed material taking into consideration the characteristics of the printed material. The display device obtains an image for illuminating the printed material, and information pertaining to the optical characteristics, such as light reflectance or transmission, of the printed material. Then, on the basis of metadata pertaining to a luminance or color of the obtained image and the obtained information, the display device controls a light source illuminating the printed material. Through this, the display device enhances the dynamic range or the color gamut of the printed material.
IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE AND IMAGING APPARATUS
An image processing device includes: a first color conversion processor configured to perform first color conversion processing on image data; a second color conversion processor configured to perform second color conversion processing on the image data; a coefficient calculator configured to calculate a coefficient indicating a blend ratio between an output of the first color conversion processor and an output of the second color conversion processor; and a blend processor configured to blend the output of the first color conversion processor and the output of the second color conversion processor based on the ratio indicated by the coefficient, wherein the coefficient calculator calculates a position on an xy chromaticity diagram of a color indicated by each pixel in image data processed by the first color conversion processor to determine the coefficient based on a distance from the calculated position to a boundary of a color gamut.
GAMUT MAPPING USING LUMINANCE PARAMETERS
A colour processor for mapping an image from source to destination colour gamuts has an input for receiving a source image including a plurality of source colour points expressed according to the source gamut; a colour characterizer configured to, for each source colour point in the source image, determine a position of intersection of a curve with the boundary of the destination gamut; and a gamut mapper configured to, for each source colour point in the source image: if the source colour point lies inside the destination gamut, apply a first translation factor to translate the source colour point to a destination colour point within a first range of values; or if the source colour point lies outside the destination gamut, apply a second translation factor, different to the first translation factor, to translate the source colour point to a destination colour point within a second range of values.
Sub-pixel grayscale three-dimensional printing
Techniques and systems for sub-pixel grayscale three-dimensional (3D) printing are described. A technique includes mapping a 3D digital model onto a 3D grid of voxels associated with a 3D printer; assigning a first intensity level to first voxels that are fully contained within the model, the first intensity level being sufficient to cure photoactive resin during a curing time; determining, based on geometric information provided by the model, containment degrees for second voxels that are partially contained within the model; assigning second intensity levels to the second voxels based respectively on the containment degrees, the second intensity levels being greater than a third intensity level and lesser than the first intensity level; assigning the third intensity level to third voxels that are outside of the model; and generating one or more graphic files based on the first, second, third voxels, and respectively assigned intensity levels.
THREE DIMENSIONAL (3-D) LOOK UP TABLE (LUT) USED FOR GAMUT MAPPING IN FLOATING POINT FORMAT
A data segmenter is configured to determine indices using numbers of most significant bits (MSBs) of fractional values of floating-point representations of component values of an input color that are selected based on exponent values of the floating-point representations. The component values are defined according to a source gamut. The data segmenter is also configured to determine offsets associated with the indices using subsets of the fractional values. An interpolator configured to map the input color to an output color defined according to a destination gamut based on a location in a three-dimensional (3-D) look up table (LUT) indicated by the indices and offsets.

Color gamut mapping method and color gamut mapping device
The present application provides a color gamut mapping method and a color gamut mapping device for use in a splicing display device. Display screens in the splicing display device have different color gamuts. By mapping the color gamuts of multiple display screens to the display screen which is the uniquely determined display screen in the splicing display device, the color gamuts of all the display screens in the splicing display device are the same, and colors displayed on different screens are also the same. Accordingly, the present application improves uneven images and the image quality.
