12.10 White peaking
About white peak and brilliant color
In video centric applications true color reproduction is generally a priority over brightness. To achieve this a typical design will not
utilize a white segment of the color wheel. This has the side effect of reducing the amount of light allowed through the color wheel,
which reduces the overall brightness. To compensate for this a technique can applied called Spoke Light Capture (SLR). The spokes
are de
fi ned to be the time between colors. If the light is passed through the spokes, the average over time across them is made up
of a mixture of the two adjacent colors. This will result in a secondary color. Color processing can take advantage of this situation.
Combining red with green yields yellow light. Similarly, combining red with blue yields magenta while combining blue with green
yields cyan. The BrilliantColor™ technology is con
fi gured to process the spoke regions as a secondary color which improves the
brightness of the display and gives the viewer a truly life-like image.
If after all, the viewer is still not satis fi ed with the color reproduction, this can further be improved by diminishing the white peaking.
With the white peaking on 10 the full white segment is used in projecting the image. At the other end when the white peaking is
on 0, the white segment is cancelled out from the projected image. This makes the colors look more pronounced as with full white
peaking on.
How to change the white peaking value
1. Press MENU to activate the menus.
2. Use the ▲ or ▼ key to select Alignment and press ENTER .
3. Use the ▲ or ▼ key to select White peaking and press ENTER .
4. Use ◄ or ► key to change the white peaking setting and press EXIT .
White peaking can be set between 0 and 10.
The default value is 10.
With 0, no white peaking, spokes not used to enhance the secondary colors and 10, full white peaking, spokes are fully used to
enhance the secondary colors to show a truly life-like image.
