Some high-end displays can vary the brightness, but not the color, of the content based on illuminationlevel of the surrounding. My research project proposes a dynamic display system that is capable of accurately displaying content under varying viewing conditions. The system takes color perception phenomena into consideration, and applies color appearance models to preserve both brightness and color appearance of the content. Such system can be seen as a prototype of futuristic display. TPPIC:cherry.jpg DIONE: DITWO: DITHREE: DIFOUR: AIONE:None so far... AITWO: AITHREE: AIFOUR: DMONE: DMTWO: DMTHREE: DMFOUR: SEMINARS:
