Abstract

Selon un exemple, la présente divulgation concerne un dispositif de calibrage d'affichage. Le dispositif de calibrage d'affichage comprend une caméra pour capturer des images d'un contenu affiché sur une unité d'affichage électronique. Le dispositif de calibrage d'affichage comprend également un processeur. Le processeur sert à déterminer un profil de couleur de l'unité d'affichage électronique sur la base d'une image capturée du contenu affiché sur l'unité d'affichage électronique et à déterminer une différence entre des profils de couleur de différentes unités d'affichage électroniques. Le processeur sert également à déterminer un réglage à apporter à un profil de couleur d'une unité d'affichage électronique cible pour l'aligner avec un profil de couleur d'une unité d'affichage électronique source sur la base d'une différence déterminée entre des profils de couleur.
