Real-time Color Management Reference Design Using MSP430 [Copy link]

TIDA-00722 is a real-time color management reference design for TI DLP Pico projectors using MSP430 . This reference design enables real-time color management of TI DLP Pico projection display systems, supporting on-site automatic color correction for products using TI DLP Pico technology displays (using LEDs). Automatic color correction allows the current of LEDs to be calibrated as their brightness characteristics change over time and temperature. Automatic white point correction includes color temperature and color appearance for all colors. The implementation of the DLP Pico display includes an MSP430 MCU and an RGB color sensor (inside the optical engine).
