1 Scope
This part of IEC 62977 specifies the standard evaluation methods for determining the optical characteristics
of HDR electronic display modules and systems. These methods apply to emissive and transmissive
direct-view displays that render real 2D images on a flat panel or on a curved panel
with a local radius of curvature larger than 1 500 mm. This document evaluates the
optical characteristics of these displays under darkroom conditions. This document
applies to the testing of display performance in response to HDR digital input signals that are absolute luminance encoded such as the HDR signal comprising RGB component values of Recommendation ITU-R BT.2020 colorimetry
with SMPTE ST 2084 [2] PQ luminance encoding and SMPTE ST 2086 [3] metadata.
NOTE A flat panel or flat panel display is a display with a planar surface that emits light
from the surface. The display can consist of light valves modulating a backlight or
be self-luminous. Emissive/transmissive/reflective hybrid displays can be non-planar
panels or non-planar panel displays.
