Efficient color mapping systems and methods

Abstract:

An electronic device may include a display panel with pixels that present an image based on image data and an application processor that generates the image data. The electronic device may include a display pipeline coupled to the electronic display and the application processor. The display pipeline may receive first image data from the application processor corresponding to a first color space used by the application processor. The display pipeline may apply a color mapping relationship to the first image data to generate second image data. The color mapping relationship may define a transform to apply to the first image data to generate the second image data corresponding to a second color space used by the electronic display. The display pipeline may transmit the second image data to a display driver that operates the electronic display to emit light according to the second image data.
