4、intended as an aid for improving theaccuracy of colorimetric measurements made with tristimuluscolorimeters on visual display units,such as cathode ray tubes(CRTs)and self-luminous flat-panel displays.It explains auseful step in the analysis of colorimetric data that takesadvantage of the fact that
5、light from such displays consists ofan additive mixture of three primary colored lights.However,it is not a complete specification of how such measurementsshould be made.1.2 This practice is limited to display devices and colori-metric instruments that meet linearity criteria as defined in thepracti
6、ce.It is not concerned with effects that might causemeasurement bias such as temporal or geometric differencesbetween the instrument being optimized and the instrumentused for reference.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is there
