Abstract

The disclosure relates to a color gamut mapping device that allows a gamma characteristic for each color to be tuned to match a target gamma curve through color gamut mapping, a tuning method thereof, and an image processor including the same. The color gamut mapping device controls a hue and saturation of an image signal to match a target color gamut using a hue parameter assigned to each of a plurality of hue axes and a saturation parameter assigned to correspond to each of a plurality of saturation control areas of each hue axis, and the color gamut mapping device changes the saturation of the image signal by changing the saturation parameter which is assigned to each hue axis and corresponds to the uppermost saturation control area so that a gamma characteristic for each color of the image signal is changed to match a target gamma curve for each color.
