What is this BS EN 61966-3 - Colour measurement and management of equipment using cathode ray tubes about?
BS EN 61966-3 discusses multimedia systems and equipment and colour measurement and management with a focus on equipment using cathode ray tubes. BS EN 61966-3 is the third part of the multi-series on BS EN 61966 multimedia systems and equipment that deals with equipment using cathode ray tubes (CRT) to display colour images for use in multimedia applications.
A series of methods and parameters for colour measurements and management for use in multimedia systems and equipment are applicable to the assessment of colour reproduction. BS EN 61966-3 deals with digital cameras to capture colour still images and moving images for use in multimedia applications.
Note: BS EN 61966-3 does not specify limiting values for various parameters.
Who is BS EN 61966-3 - Colour measurement and management equipment using cathode ray tubes for?
BS EN 61966-3 on colour measurement and management is useful for:
- Television manufacturers
- Multimedia systems designers and manufacturers
- Research and development personnel
- Design engineers
Why should you use BS EN 61966-3 - Colour measurement and management equipment using cathode ray tubes?
The methods of measurement standardized in BS EN 61966-3 are designed to make possible the
objective performance assessment and characterization of the colour reproduction of CTR that displays which accepts red – green – blue analogue or digital signals for electrical input terminals and output colour images on CRT display screen. The measured results are intended to be used for the purpose of colour management in multimedia systems, typically on the Internet.
BS EN 61966-3 defines input test signals, measurement conditions and methods of measurement, so as to make possible the colour management and comparison of the results of measurements. BS EN 61966-3 describes a method to control colour reproduction based on the data reported as the results of performing the measuring methods.
