The reproducible quantification of anti‐glare layer based display sparkle with Imaging Luminance Measurement Devices (ILMD) is essential for testing and conformity assessment of many displays aiming at outdoor applications. This study systematically researches relevant setup and system influences of a Fourier space‐based sparkle evaluation. These include 13 different antiglare layers, two displays with different PPI, and several different system setups featuring 12 different camera/lens combinations and more than 10000 individual luminance images. Based on the resulting sensitivities, the measurement procedure is optimized with respect to the achieved reproducibility. The resulting procedure serves as basis to define a new automotive specification for reproducible sparkle measurements and may do so for other applications, that need to quantify sparkle in a reproducible way.
In this contribution, we present and validate a DeMURA procedure using a one‐shot approach that does not require massive oversampling. It bases on on‐site calibration of the imaging condition in the setup by a specific teach pattern. It has only to be performed for the first sample. Slight misalignments of following displays are then automatically corrected. After that, the luminance of each display can be measured with a single measurement. The proposed method has the potential to facilitate high‐precision calibration of pixel‐level luminance under much more relaxed sampling conditions and higher speed compared to current methods.
The increasing display sizes and changing form factors of displays, including automotive displays, lead to impractical measurement distances for lateral uniformity measurements. This contribution suggests and exemplarily applies two alternative and combinable methods to allow lateral uniformity measurements at low distances and describes an adjusted BlackMURA compliant validation procedure. The proposed methods are validated with a high-quality display device and are compared to results using the standard long-distance measurement procedure.
