LumiCol 1900 2-in-1 imaging colorimeter for fast and precise display characterization

By combining their expertise and competencies in the field of display metrology, a novel imaging colorimeter for fast and precise luminance and color measurements of flat panel displays was developed by Konica Minolta and Instrument Systems. The LumiCol 1900 is a 2-in-1 device, combining an RGB CMOS sensor for fast 2D image acquisition with a spot colorimeter for precise tristimulus color measurements. The colorimeter measurement, performed in a spot in the center of the acquired image, is used to correct the values derived from the CMOS camera, guaranteeing colorimeter precision across the 2D image. As a result, the LumiCol 1900 enables a fast, but still precise characterization of the whole display area in one shot, making it ideal for automated production and quality control.
