Abstract

An interpolation method for color correction generates correction signals Y, M and C from input signals R, G and B through interpolation. In this interpolation method, a triangular prism is selected from plural unit triangular prisms in RGB space, based on x, y and z coordinates of the input signals, a gradient factor and an intercept factor of the selected prism are read out from a memory, and correction data corresponding to the input signals is calculated through interpolation using the gradient and intercept factors from the memory, so that the correction signals are generated based on the calculated correction data.
