Radiometric Compensation of Images Projected on Non-White Surfaces by Exploiting Chromatic Adaptation and Perceptual Anchoring

摘要

Flat surfaces in our living environment to be used as replacements of a projection screen are not necessarily white. We propose a perceptual radiometric compensation method to counteract the effect of color projection surfaces on image appearance. It reduces color clipping while preserving the hue and brightness of images based on the anchoring property of human visual system. In addition, it considers the effect of chromatic adaptation on perceptual image quality and fixes the color distortion caused by non-white projection surfaces by properly shifting the color of the image pixels toward the complementary color of the projection surface. User ratings show that our method outperforms the existing methods in 974 out of 1020 subjective tests.
