    The space-opera franchise Star Wars also depicts Light and Dark aspects in the form of the fictional energy field called The Force where there are two sides, light side and dark side wherein the protagonists, the Jedi, practice and propagate the use of the former, and the antagonists, the Sith, use the latter.

  3. Contrast (vision) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_(vision)

    The maximum contrast of an image is termed the contrast ratio or dynamic range. In images where the contrast ratio approaches the maximum possible for the medium, there is a conservation of contrast. In such cases, increasing contrast in certain parts of the image will necessarily result in a decrease in contrast elsewhere.

  4. Chiaroscuro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiaroscuro

    The use of dark subjects dramatically lit by a shaft of light from a single constricted and often unseen source, was a compositional device developed by Ugo da Carpi (c. 1455 – c. 1523), Giovanni Baglione (1566–1643), and Caravaggio (1571–1610), the last of whom was crucial in developing the style of tenebrism, where dramatic chiaroscuro ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-on-dark_color_scheme

    Light on dark color schemes require less energy to display on OLED displays. This positively impacts battery life and reduces energy consumption. [16]While an OLED will consume around 40% of the power of an LCD displaying an image that is primarily black, it can use more than three times as much power to display an image with a white background, such as a document or web site. [17]

  6. Grayscale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grayscale

    Grayscale images have many shades of gray in between. Grayscale images can be the result of measuring the intensity of light at each pixel according to a particular weighted combination of frequencies (or wavelengths), and in such cases they are monochromatic proper when only a single frequency (in practice, a narrow band of frequencies) is ...

  7. Negative (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_(photography)

    A positive image is a normal image. A negative image is a total inversion, in which light areas appear dark and vice versa. A negative color image is additionally color-reversed, [6] with red areas appearing cyan, greens appearing magenta, and blues appearing yellow, and vice versa.

    Not to be confused with turbinado or "raw" sugar (which is brown because it is unprocessed), light brown sugar and dark brown sugar are made by simply adding molasses to refined (white) sugar. As ...

  9. Contrast ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_ratio

    An LCD technology is dynamic contrast (DC), also called advanced contrast ratio (ACR), and smart contrast ratio (SCR [4]) and various other designations.When there is a need to display a dark image, a display that supports dynamic contrast underpowers the backlight lamp (or decreases the aperture of the projector's lens using an iris), but proportionately amplifies the transmission through the ...
