Abstract

A method of reducing a total, per device, measurements taking time in a calibration system that uses a sensor array that serially reports out its readings and a data processing unit that needs to receive the reported out readings in good order before allowing an under-measurement first display device to advance away from a measurements taking station includes the step of not driving the first display device with all of required full screen test images where each is a full screen display of only a respective one of a predetermined minimum number of grayscale values produced as a minimum number of needed full screen sample images and; in place of at least a first plurality of the not-produced full screen images, driving the under-measurement first display device with a partial screen multi-pattern that presents a plurality of different grayscale values including ones not presented by those of all of the full screen test images that are used to drive the under-measurement first display device. The serially reported out readings from the sensor array for the partial screen multi-pattern and for the full screen test images are obtained and used to generate virtual full screen sample ima…
