Post-production De-mura of a television using a mobile device

Abstract:

On-demand, post-production de-mura of a television is described herein. An example system includes a television that comprises a screen and a local de-mura application. The system also includes a mobile device that comprises a mobile de-mura module. In operation, the mobile de-mura module identifies and quantifies mura in the screen of the television for a given IRE index. These operations are repeatedly performed in a measurement loop that iterates over a range of IRE indexes. Raw uniformity data is generated from such iterations. The local de-mura application uses the uniformity data to de-mura the screen and improve gray uniformity performance of the television. Further, the mobile de-mura module and the local de-mura application are configured to fine tune and further de-mura the screen by iterating a verification loop over a range of IRE indexes, wherein operation of the verification loop is substantially similar to operation of the measurement loop.
