Diffuse Reflectance and Ambient Contrast Measurements Using a Sampling Sphere

Abstract
Display performance under ambient conditions is as important for display characterization as are darkroom measurements. We review ambient-contrast measurements and the design and use of sampling spheres rather than large integrating spheres for making diffuse-reflectance measurements.
