Abstract

In this chapter, luminance and color measurements will be applied to special geometric and image set-ups. Here we focus on spatial deviations of these parameters, as caused, for example by a nonuniform LCD backlight. Other topics covered are efficiency in terms of power consumption and image degradation due to signal processing.
