3 Operation Operation guide (glossary) Gamma Curve The description of the gamma curve that assumes a gamma curve unit. Please read the relevant detailed description and professional books. The gamma curve of the projector to the input video signal determines for each color the relative value of its light output. The value of the input video image signal is displayed as a percentage - with 100% both being displayed in % as units - of the maximum light input signal for bright- The light output ness and the brightness output value as a percentage of the maximum output value of each color or the projector. In relation to the signal value of 50% of the input, it projects with brightness output value of 50%. However, a light output value of 0% is not completely black and neither no projection. As the possibil- 50% ity of the projector to reproduce blackness is limited, it will be actually slightly brighter. The input video image signal value becomes a continuous curve of 0% to 100% for the gamma curve, which can be set with the projector. Moreover, it is impossible to get only one light output value for the input video image signal value. 0% The gamma curve can be set for each color, i.e. red, green and blue. By select- 0% 50% Input signal 100% ing the white color, the 3 colors can be adjusted at the same time. value A larger angle of inclination of the gamma curve leads to a greater gap of the light output value of that area and makes it easier to distinguish the video images. A low angle of inclination leads, on the contrary, to the difference in that area becoming smaller, so that the video images are harder to distinguish. If it is im- possible to get an inclination angle, so that it is chosen to become horizontal, the gap in that area vanished and it might be impossible to distinguish the video images. 100% A A B C The light output B C 0% 0% Input signal value 100% Suppose you knew the inclination of the input video image signal values of the watched video images, and would increase the slope of the portion of this area and attenuate the slope of other areas. It would then be easier to determine the video images. Also, if you did not know the inclination of the input video image signal value of the watched video images, adjustment would be difficult.However, there are some trends of the distribution of the input video image signal value depending on the type of video content. As some typical examples are prepared in the [Gamma] (Reference Page: 54), it is recommended to perform similar settings before watching. Some methods about how to adjust the gamma curve are presented here, but in reality one can think of various adjustment methods, for example where red, green and blue are individually adjusted. In your own image creation, please enjoy the process of trial and error. 100% 100% The light output The light output 0% 0% Input signal value 100% The distribution of the input signal 0% 0% Input signal value 100% The distribution of the input signal 74
