Abstract
A method for use with an electronic signboard (e.g., an LED signboard) compensates psychovisual chromaticity shift due to ambient light. The method first measures a color of light reflected from the signboard. Based on the measurement a set of calorimetric equations defining the desired light to be perceived as being displayed by each pixel of the signboard are solved. The calorimetric equations are the additive color mixture of the ambient light and the light to be actually displayed by the pixel in the absence of ambient light. The calorimetric equations may be expressed in units of uniform color space. The solutions of the colorimetric equations are then used to control the light actually displayed by the pixel.
