From television to computers to coffee makers to aircraft cockpits and more, displays play an important role in our everyday life. This book describes practical techniques and instrumentation for the measurement of these displays, as well as common pitfalls that result from errors.
This complete reference on how to measure, test, and compare electronic displays includes a discussion of common pitfalls which promises to bring some needed standardization to the field. Equations are kept to a minimum in the body of the text, but a full set is provided in one of several appendices. Other appendices include the CIE Standard Observer tables, information on international and national standards organizations, national standards laboratories, equipment suppliers, and calibration services.
