Abstract
The color reproduction characteristics of LCD (liquid crystal display) panels are different from those of CRT (cathode ray tube) displays. This paper describes how the authors measured and analyzed such characteristics of LCD panels to develop new methods for compensating the bluish cast found on conventional LCDs. The first one is a hardware-based technique that employs a LUT (look-up table) and the second a software-based color management technique utilizing ICC profiles compensating the bluish cast. The authors achieved faithful color reproduction for standard sRGB with both methods.
