ABSTRACT:
A system for compensating the output of an output device to eliminate reflected ambient illumination comprises a display device, a calibration memory, a reflectivity memory, a memory, a processor, an input device, a video card, and an achromatic card that serves as a standard for comparison to the output of the output device. The reflectivity memory stores the reflectivity characteristics of the output device. The calibration memory stores the optical characteristics of the output device. The memory stores the reflectivity characteristics of the achromatic card, data, and program instruction steps of the system. The output of the output device is adjusted to match the ambient illumination reflected from the achromatic card. The processor then determines the tristimulus values of the ambient illumination through the known tristimulus values of the output generated by the output device, the reflectivity characteristics of the achromatic card, and the reflectivity characteristics of the output device. The processor then uses the tristimulus values of the ambient illumination to determine the bias setting of the output device to compensate all outputs generated by the output device for the ambient illumination reflected from the output device.
