A display device, includes: a first processor configured to increase or decrease values of color components representing three colors and included in a first video signal, in accordance with values corresponding to the values of the color components representing three colors; a second processor configured to convert a second video signal into a third video signal, the second video signal including the color components representing three colors and having the values increased or decreased by the first processor, and the third video signal including color components representing four colors; and a display configured to display the third video signal including the color components representing four colors.

Customization of display color profiles is described. A first interface for customizing a global color preference is generated. Feedback from a user is received via the first interface. The feedback describes a customized global color preference. A second interface for customizing a memory color preference is generated. Feedback is received from the user via the second interface. The feedback describes the customized memory color preference. A color preference profile is generated using the customized global color preference and the customized memory color preference. The color preference profile describes the user's preference for how color is presented. The color preference profile is associated with a user profile of the user. Visual content is rendered on a display of the device in accordance with the color preference profile.

Adaptive recoloring of displayed digital content automatically pursues specified active color palette goals while adhering to specified active color palette constraints. Source code editors, word processors, and other programs are enhanced by adaptive recoloring. Recoloring rules may specify coloring roles, colors, tolerances, color spaces, metrics, and other criteria. Recoloring may be triggered by a zoom or another change in user focus, by a brightness change, a screen size change, by notice of a user perception change, or by another event. Recoloring improves text legibility, assists user focus, compensates for differences in color perception and emotional impact, and increases color availability without degrading usability, for example. Transitions between words or other display items can be heightened. Branding colors may be preserved, in logos and text. Automatic selections may be overridden by a user command or by interactive tuning, with warnings given as appropriate.

A method for driving electro-optic displays so as to reduce visible artifacts are described. Such methods include driving extra pixels where the boundary between a driven and undriven area would otherwise lead to artifact by providing paired sets of driving instructions, allowing the undriven area to be driven while maintain the desired (undriven) optical state.

Controlling the illumination at an endpoint to a communication session by transmitting, over the communication session, the color of the light to be emitted by the display of the receiving endpoint. In a particular embodiment, a method includes, during a video communication session between a first endpoint operated by a first user and a second endpoint operated by a second user, transmitting first video, comprising a solid color image, from the first endpoint to the second endpoint over the video communication session, wherein the first video is prominently displayed at the second endpoint. At the first endpoint, the method provides receiving second video from the second endpoint. The second video is captured at the second endpoint while the first video is being displayed at the second endpoint. The method also includes displaying the second video to the first user.

A method for processing an input image having an initial gamut to a targeted image having a wider gamut for display on a wide-gamut display includes determining a set of color scaling factors based on different parameters including one or more user-related characteristics of a user and the available gamut of the wide-gamut display device, applying a gamut-mapping to the input image based on the available gamut to generate a gamut-mapped image and applying the set of color scaling factors to the gamut-mapped image to generate the targeted image. A user device having a wide-gamut display device also includes an image processing module configured for performing the method for processing the input image.
