An incandescent light bulb has a CRI of 100. [1] High-CRI LED lighting is a light-emitting diode (LED) lighting source that offers a high color rendering index (CRI). CRI is a quantitative measure of a light's ability to reproduce the colors of objects faithfully in comparison with an ideal or natural light source.
To generate white light best suited as an LCD backlight, parts of the light of a blue-emitting LED are transformed by quantum dots into small-bandwidth green and red light such that the combined white light allows a nearly ideal color gamut to be generated by the RGB color filters of the LCD panel. The quantum dots may be in a separate layer as ...

The RGB color model is an additive color model [1] in which the red, green, and blue primary colors of light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad ...
Researchers use daylight as the benchmark to which to compare color rendering of electric lights. In 1948, daylight was described as the ideal source of illumination for good color rendering because "it (daylight) displays (1) a great variety of colors, (2) makes it easy to distinguish slight shades of color, and (3) the colors of objects around us obviously look natural".
LCDs have a constant (backlit) image, where the intensity is varied by blocking the light shining through the panel. CRTs use an electron beam, scanning the display, flashing a lit image. If interlacing is used, a single full-resolution image results in two "flashes".
There are no actual daylight light sources, only simulators. Constructing a practical light source that emulates a D-series illuminant is a difficult problem. The chromaticity can be replicated simply by taking a well known light source and applying filters, such as the Spectralight III, that used filtered incandescent lamps. [22]
LED backlighting in color screens comes in two varieties: white LED backlights and RGB LED backlights. [10] White LEDs are used most often in notebook computers and desktop screens, and make up virtually all mobile LCD screens. A white LED is typically a blue LED with broad spectrum yellow phosphor to result in the emission of white light ...
Detail view of an LED display with a matrix of red, green and blue diodes The 1,500-foot (460 m) long LED display on the Fremont Street Experience in Downtown Las Vegas, Nevada, is currently the largest in the world. A LED display is a flat panel display that uses an array of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as pixels for a video display.
