Abstract

In this chapter, luminance and color measurements will be applied to special geometric and image setups. 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.
