Abstract
We propose a composite measurement method to characterize display performance and readability under both daylight and sunlight illumination. The measurements are performed separately in a laboratory, then combined and scaled to daylight and sunlight levels. Measurements of the low-resolution bidirectional reflectance distribution function can be included to simulate hand-held display utilization.Citation
