Gamma
Screen luminance as a function of video voltage approximately follows a mathematical power
function of the input video signal, the exponent of which is called gamma.
Grayscale
An achromatic scale ranging from black through a series of successively lighter grays to white.
Such a series may be made up of steps, which appear to be equally distant from one another. If the
Analog/ Digital converter is 8 bit, then the monitor can display at most 2
