Description:
|
||
|
|
Description of the scale of the brightness curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The human eye senses brightness approximately logarithmically,
|
||
|
|
hence linear changes in brightness are perceived as being
|
||
|
|
non-linear. To achieve a linear perception of brightness changes
|
||
|
|
controls like sliders need to apply a logarithmic mapping for
|
||
|
|
backlights with a linear brightness curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Possible values of the attribute are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
unknown
|
||
|
|
The scale of the brightness curve is unknown.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
linear
|
||
|
|
The brightness changes linearly with each step. Brightness
|
||
|
|
controls should apply a logarithmic mapping for a linear
|
||
|
|
perception.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
non-linear
|
||
|
|
The brightness changes non-linearly with each step. Brightness
|
||
|
|
controls should use a linear mapping for a linear perception.
