Digital ISO-test charts according to ISO/FDIS 9241-306:2008 and additionally prEN ISO 9241-306:2007

ISO/FDIS 9241-306 has the title: Ergonomics of human-system interaction
- Part 306: Field assessment methods for electronic visual displays

For the achromatic ISO-test chart ME16 according to ISO 9241-306, see the URL (1 page, 200 kByte)
ME16/10L/L16E00NP.PDF

Remarks: This ISO 9241-306-test chart is identical to the ISO/IEC-test chart no. 3 according to ISO/IEC 15775:1999 and identical to the ISO/IEC-test chart no. 3 according to ISO/IEC TR 24705:2005. At present (2008-04) the last public version of the Draft Technical Report ISO/IEC DTR 24705:2005 with the title "Method of specifying image reproduction of colour devices by digital and analog test charts" is freely available in PDF format see
24705E.html
For all ISO/IEC-test charts according to ISO/IEC TR 24705:2005-10 see
24705TE.html

For the effect of the ambient light on the input - output relationship and the inverse relationship, see the achromatic ISO-test chart ME15 according to ISO 9241-306 at the URL (16 pages, 1.7 MByte),
ME15/10L/L15E00FP.PDF

Remarks: For further information, especially of the influence of the ambient light on the display colours, see: K. Richter, "Output of 16 step colour scales equally spaced in CIELAB for 8 display contrast ratios", Tagungsband LUX Europa, LiTG und TU Berlin, Berlin 2005

This paper describes additionally the application of other ISO-test charts according to ISO 9241-306.

For the achromatic ISO-test chart ME17 according to ISO 9241-306 for visual output linearisation of 5- and 16-step grey scales, see the URL (4 pages, 150 kByte)
ME17/10L/L17E00FP.PDF

Remarks: A method for output linearisation of colour devices is described in the technical report ISO/IEC TR 19797:2004. At present (2008-04) the last public version of the Draft Technical Report ISO/IEC DTR 19797:2004 with the title
"Device output of 16-step colour scales, output linearization method (LM) and specification of the reproduction properties" is freely available in PDF format, see
19797E.html
For all ISO/IEC-test charts according to ISO/IEC TR 19797:2004-01 see

For the chromatic ISO-test chart ME18 according to ISO 9241-306 for visual output linearisation of eight 5- and 16-step colour scales see the URL (8 pages, 420 kByte)
ME18/10L/L18E00NP.PDF

Remarks: Probably in 2008 the DIN standard based on the draft E DIN 33872-1 to -6 :2007 with the title: Information technology - Office machines - Method of specifying relative colour reproduction with YES/NO criteria will be published. It is for example tested if the DIN-test charts according to DIN 33872-2 produce linearized output of 5- and 16-step colour scales in 10 hue planes. There are methods under development which produce relative linearized output on displays and printers. For the DIN-test charts according to E DIN 33872-1 to -6 see
33872E.html
