Determining the color appearance of Helmholtz-Kohlrausch effect for self-emissive displays

The correlation between the measured luminance of a stimulus and its perceptual brightness, which varies with saturation and color, has been studied extensively. The increase in the colorfulness of the stimulus generates a Helmholtz-Kohlrausch (H-K) effect, which appears ‘bright’. This study aims to quantify the H-K effect of a highly saturated self-luminous display and to apply it to the CAM16 model. It also attempts to quantify the H-K effect by using the ratio of lightness and luminance values obtained from the modified CAM16 model. Future research objectives include the accurate prediction of color attributes to develop a model of high saturation displays in order to compare conventional displays.
