Abstract
Color imaging devices, color imaging methods, and color separation methods are described. According to one embodiment, a color imaging device includes interface circuitry configured to access color image data of an initial color space for a plurality of pixels, color space conversion circuitry coupled with the interface circuitry and configured to convert the color image data for some of the pixels from the initial color space to a first output color space representation and to convert the color image data for others of the pixels from the initial color space to a second output color space representation different than the first output color space representation, and an image engine coupled with the color space conversion circuitry and configured to form a color image using the color image data of the first and the second output color space representations.
