  3. Color calibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_calibration

    Color calibration of a monitor using ColorHug2, an open source colorimeter, placed on the screen. For calibrating the monitor a colorimeter is attached flat to the display's surface, shielded from all ambient light. The calibration software sends a series of color signals to the display and compares the values that were actually sent against ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_balance

    This captures an image of the ambient light, which enables a digital camera to set the correct color balance for that light. There is a large literature on how one might estimate the ambient lighting from the camera data and then use this information to transform the image data.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlight

    LCDs do not produce light by themselves, so they need illumination (ambient light or a special light source) to produce a visible image. Backlights are often used in smartphones, computer monitors, and LCD televisions. They are used in small displays to increase readability in low light conditions such as in wristwatches. [1]

  9. Bias lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bias_lighting

    The purpose of bias lighting is to reduce the perceived brightness of the display as a result of the contrast with the slightly illuminated area around it. [1] This reduces the eye strain and fatigue that occurs when viewing a bright display against a very dark background for an extended time, [1] and increases the perceived blackness, perceived highlights, and overall contrast of the display.
