Abstract

System and method for adjusting the color segment durations for colors in a color sequence in sequential color display systems. A preferred embodiment comprises receiving a desired color sequence to display, computing a scaling factor for each color in the desired color sequence based on a reference color sequence, and sequentially displaying the colors in the desired color sequence. The reference color sequence used in computing the scaling factors specifies a duration for each color in the reference color sequence, while the desired color sequence specifies a desired duration for each color in the desired color sequence. The use of a single reference color sequence to create a large number of color sequences can save a significant amount of storage space and can allow for the storage of reference color sequences to meet varying chromatic properties due to changes in the display system, user settings, and operating environment.
