The International Committee for Display Metrology (ICDM) and the Society for Information Display (SID) has released the Information Display Measurements Standard (IDMS). The IDMS is the “Go-To” document for standard measurement procedures to quantify electronic display characteristics and qualities. The IDMS has benefited from the expertise of display metrologists, electrical, mechanical, software and optical engineers, physicists, vision scientists, and many other display-related disciplines.
Chapter 17 of the IDMS is especially interesting for 3D-ConTourNet members, as it discusses measurement methods for 3D displays, including stereoscopic displays, autostereoscopic display with two views, autostereoscopic displays with multiple views and autostereoscopic light-field displays.
Holografika has made several contributions to the IDMS: introduction for light-field displays, as well as several display measurement methods including 3D geometry distortion, Angular resolution, Field of view and Valid viewing area. Holografika also shared a 3D test pattern to be used in the evaluation of 3D displays.
Updating the 3D display chapter so that it covers an even wider range of 3D displays is one of the focus topics of the upcoming work that prepares the next version of the ICDM – 3D-ConTourNet members are more than welcome to contribute!
