  2. Contrast ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_ratio

    An LCD technology is dynamic contrast (DC), also called advanced contrast ratio (ACR), and smart contrast ratio (SCR [4]) and various other designations.When there is a need to display a dark image, a display that supports dynamic contrast underpowers the backlight lamp (or decreases the aperture of the projector's lens using an iris), but proportionately amplifies the transmission through the ...

  3. Contrast (vision) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_(vision)

    The maximum contrast of an image is termed the contrast ratio or dynamic range. In images where the contrast ratio approaches the maximum possible for the medium, there is a conservation of contrast. In such cases, increasing contrast in certain parts of the image will necessarily result in a decrease in contrast elsewhere.

  4. Contrast-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast-to-noise_ratio

    Contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) [1] is a measure used to determine image quality. CNR is similar to the metric signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), but subtracts a term before taking the ratio. This is important when there is a significant bias in an image, such as from haze. [ 2 ]

  5. Display contrast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_contrast

    The "luminance contrast" is the ratio between the higher luminance, L H, and the lower luminance, L L, that define the feature to be detected.This ratio, often called contrast ratio, CR, (actually being a luminance ratio), is often used for high luminances and for specification of the contrast of electronic visual display devices.

  6. Sensitometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitometry

    Therefore the contrast ratio is as follows: contrast ratio = antilog (2.0 — 0.3) = antilog (1.7) = 50 Therefore contrast ratio = 50 : 1 (50 to 1). When applied to the negative film version of the same test card, the maximum density is 1.30 although the minimum density remains at 0.30. The contrast ratio of the negative is therefore as follows ...

  7. Viewing angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viewing_angle

    With LCD screens, some manufacturers have opted to measure the contrast ratio and report the viewing angle as the angle where the contrast ratio exceeds 5:1 or 10:1, giving minimally acceptable viewing conditions. The viewing angle is measured from one direction to the opposite, giving a maximum of 180° for a flat, one-sided screen.

  8. Contrast resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_resolution

    Contrast resolution or contrast-detail is an approach to describing the image quality in terms of both the image contrast and resolution. Contrast resolution is usually measured by generating a pattern from a test object that depicts how image contrast changes as the structures being imaged get smaller and closer together.

  9. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    Dynamic range measures the ratio between the strongest un-distorted signal on a channel and the minimum discernible signal, which for most purposes is the noise level. SNR measures the ratio between an arbitrary signal level (not necessarily the most powerful signal possible) and noise.
