  • What Is Dolby Vision?
    Dolby Vision™ for the Home 1 WHAT IS DOLBY VISION? Dolby Vision™ transforms the way you experience movies, TV shows, and games with incredible brightness, contrast, and color that bring entertainment to life before your eyes. By fully leveraging the maximum potential of new cinema projection technology and new TVs’ display capabilities, Dolby Vision delivers high-dynamic-range (HDR) and wide-color-gamut content. The result is a refined, lifelike image that will make you forget you are looking at a screen. Current consumer video delivery and cinema standards are based on the limitations of old technologies and require altering the original content before it can be reproduced for playback—dramatically reducing the range of colors, brightness, and contrast from that captured by modern cameras. Dolby Vision changes that, giving creative teams the confidence that images will be reproduced faithfully on TVs, PCs, and mobile devices that feature Dolby Vision. Dolby Vision is a natural complement to Dolby Atmos®. It gives movie, television, and game creators the tools they need to create experiences that preserve the creative intent and let consumers experience truly immersive content without compromise. For manufacturers of televisions, game consoles, personal computers, and mobile devices, Dolby Vision unlocks the full capabilities of their hardware and creates a premium experience that can increase use and enjoyment of these products. 2 DOLBY VISION: ROOTED IN THE SCIENCE OF THE HUMAN VISUAL SYSTEM There are three ways to improve picture quality for movies, TV shows, games, and user-generated content: • More pixels: 4K, 8K, and beyond • Higher frame rate (HFR) • Better pixels (high dynamic range and wider color gamut): Dolby Vision 4K televisions have “more pixels,” and newer standards for UHD TV also include high frame rates, but these standards don’t make each pixel able to better represent the full range of brightness we see in reality.

  • Ultra HD Playout & Delivery
    Ultra HD Playout & Delivery SOLUTION BRIEF The next major advancement in television has arrived: Ultra HD. By 2020 more than 40 million consumers around the world are projected to be watching close to 250 linear UHD channels, a figure that doesn’t include VOD (video-on-demand) or OTT (over-the-top) UHD services. A complete UHD playout and delivery solution from Harmonic will help you to meet that demand. 4K UHD delivers a screen resolution four times that of 1080p60. Not to be confused with the 4K digital cinema format, a professional production and cinema standard with a resolution of 4096 x 2160, UHD is a broadcast and OTT standard with a video resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels at 24/30 fps and 8-bit color sampling. Second-generation UHD specifications will reach a frame rate of 50/60 fps at 10 bits. When combined with advanced technologies such as high dynamic range (HDR) and wide color gamut (WCG), the home viewing experience will be unlike anything previously available. The expected demand for UHD content will include all types of programming, from VOD movie channels to live global sporting events such as the World Cup and Olympics. UHD-native channel deployments are already on the rise, including the first linear UHD channel in North America, NASA TV UHD, launched in 2015 via a partnership between Harmonic and NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. The channel highlights incredible imagery from the U.S. space program using an end-to-end UHD playout, encoding and delivery solution from Harmonic. The Harmonic UHD solution incorporates the latest developments in IP networking and compression technology, including HEVC (High- Efficiency Video Coding) signal transport and HDR enhancement.

  • Growing Importance of Color in a World of Displays and Data Color In
    Importance of Color in Displays Growing Importance of Color in a World of Displays and Data Color in displays Standards for color space and their importance The television and monitor display industry, through numerous standards bodies, including the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and International Commission on Illumination (CIE), collaborate to create standards for interoperability, delivery, and image quality, providing a basis for delivering value to the consumers and businesses that purchase and rely on these displays. In addition to industry-wide standards, proprietary standards developed by commercial entities, such as Adobe RGB and Dolby Vision, drive innovation and customer value. The benefits of standards for color are tangible. They provide the means for: Color information to be device- and application-independent Maintaining color fidelity through the creation, editing, mastering, and broadcasting process Reproducing color accurately and consistently across diverse display devices By defining a uniform color space, encoding system, and broadcast specification relative to an ideal “reference display,” content can be created almost anywhere and transmitted to virtually any device. In order for that content to be shown correctly and in full detail, the display rendering it should be able to reproduce the same color space. While down-conversion to lesser color spaces is possible, the resulting image quality will be reduced. It benefits a consumer, whenever possible and within reasonable spending, to purchase a display with the closest conformance to standards so that they are assured of the best experience in terms of interoperability and image quality. The Color IQ optic that is referenced as Annex 3 of Exemption 39(b) allows displays to meet these standards, and does so at a lower system cost and higher energy efficiency than alternative solutions.

    JPEG Compatible Coding of High Dynamic Range Imagery using Tone Mapping Operators Min Chen1, Guoping Qiu1, Zhibo Chen2 and Charles Wang2 1School of Computer Science, The University of Nottingham, UK 2Thomson Broadband R&D (Beijing) Co., Ltd, China Abstract. In this paper, we introduce a new method for HDR imaging remain. For example, to display HDR compressing high dynamic range (HDR) imageries. Our images in conventional CRT or print HDR image on method exploits the fact that tone mapping is a necessary paper, the dynamic range of the image has to be operation for displaying HDR images on low dynamic compressed or the HDR image has to be tone mapped. range (LDR) reproduction media and seamlessly Even though there has been several tone mapping integrates tone mapping with a well-established image methods in the literature [3 - 12], non so far can compression standard to produce a HDR image universally produce satisfactorily results. Another huge compression technique that is backward compatible with challenge is efficient storage of HDR image. Compared established standards. We present a method to handle with conventional 24-bit/pixel images, HDR image is 96 color information so that HDR image can be gracefully bits/pixel and data is stored as 32-bit floating-point reconstructed from the tone mapped LDR image and numbers instead of 8-bit integer numbers. The data rate extra information stored with it. We present experimental using lossless coding, e.g, in OpenEXR [15], will be too results to demonstrate that the proposed technique works high especially when it comes to HDR video.
