Abstract

In one embodiment the present invention includes a method that adjusts a display device according to a display environment. The method includes sensing the display environment of the display device and generating environment data that corresponds to the display environment. The environment data includes color data. The method further includes adjusting a color appearance model according to the color data, generating a control signal according to the color appearance model having been adjusted, and controlling a backlight of the display device according to the control signal. In this manner, a viewer perceives the images displayed by the display device in the manner intended by the content creator, because the adjustments to the color appearance model compensate for the viewer's physiological response to the display environment.
