Lecture 23: Color Science (124)

When designing a display, it seems like you should design the LEDs to emit light centered at the peaks our our human cone response curves so that you could use the least amount of power to provide the same perceived image.

Are there performance differences between the RGB layout shown on this slide and the RGB layout shown earlier in the presentation (the circular dots as opposed to vertical rods)?

I think there is no large difference between these two layouts. Because they're small enough that we can not seperate them by our eyes.

Though there may not be performance implications, I think it's important to note that there are tradeoffs in either representation. The circular RDB layout is used in LCD displays and the vertical rod RGB layout is used for OLED displays. For the LCD displays, the circular layout can provide more consistent and uniform color representation which can reduce color bleeding and improve accuracy but has overall lower density. On the other hand, the vertical rod layout for OLED has higher density and sharper quality but compromises in color bleeding and accuracy.

Interested in the "true tone" mode of iPhone screen display. How does it measure the displayed color such that it can be adapted to the surrounding environment?
