This book is a monograph about how to exploit the knowledge of the human color information processing system in order to design usable, ergonomic, and pleasing information displays, entertainment displays, or a highquality visual environment. For the designer of modern selfluminous visual technologies including displays and light sources for general lighting, optimization principles derived from the human visual system are presented. This book has arisen from the need for a specialist text that brings together these principles derived from a comprehensive view of human color information processing from retinal photoreceptors to cogni tion, preference, harmony, and emotions arising in the visual brain with the recent amazing developments of display technology and general indoor light source technology. In this sense, this book is not a textbook on human vision, colorimetry, colorscience,displaytechnology,orlightsourcetechnology.Instead,theemphasisis on how to use the features of the human visual system to meet todays technological challenges including the colorimetric and color appearancebased characterization and calibration of color monitors, color management in digital TV and cinema, optimization of pixel and subpixel architectures for displays of three or more primary colors, color conspicuity, color memory, and color preferencebased enhancement of color displays for visual ergonomics and pleasing image rendering, also concerning cultural and age differences, and last but not least the optimization of spectral power distributions of modern light sources used to illuminate an indoor scene or an image rendering pixel architecture as a backlight.
