ABSTRACT:
Appropriate luminance linearization values are determined for improving sub-pixel positioning of image edges in grayscale displays. Individual display devices may be calibrated by and end-user, or factory luminance linearization settings may be determined. Grayscale characters may be optimized for specific display devices.
