Abstract

A method for detecting the characteristics of a display, comprises the steps of: creating a model of the display having multiple parameters relating the physical output of the display to an input signal creating the display; employing a model of the human visual system, generating a set of control signals for producing patterns in the display that enable an observer to employ visual selection criteria to identify specific patterns corresponding to specific values of the parameters; applying the set of control signals to the display to produce the patterns; selecting specific patterns from the display; determining the values of the parameters from the patterns selected; and determining the characteristics of the display by applying the values of the parameters to the model.
