Identification of Text and Symbols on a Liquid Crystal Display Part I: Characterisation of the Luminance, Temporal and Spectral Characteristics

摘要

This report outlines the measurements performed on an Apple M9179LL/A 30' 2560 x 1600 LCD panel to establish its luminance response function, luminance uniformity, luminance temporal stability, response time and spectral characteristics. The results of this report were used in subsequent reports (Fletcher, Sutherland, & Nugent, in press; Fletcher, Sutherland, Nugent, & Grech, in press) which examined the minimum character size that allowed for fast and accurate identification of numbers, letters and combat symbology under ambient lighting conditions experienced in naval operations rooms.
