LUT_Contrast

This control is applicable exclusively with the Response Control parametric LUT definition method. This implements a control similar to the contrast control of a television monitor.

The following charts explain the contrast effect when all other controls are set to the default value: LUT_Brightness = 0.00, LUT_Visibility = 0.00, LUT_Negative = FALSE.

LUT_Contrast = 0.00
Minimum value

LUT_Contrast = 0.80

LUT_Contrast = 1.00
Default value

LUT_Contrast = 1.20

LUT_Contrast = 2.00
Maximum value

LUT_Contrast 0.00

LUT_Contrast 0.80

LUT_Contrast 1.00

LUT_Contrast 1.20

LUT_Contrast 2.00

The slope of the transformation law is the gain, which is non-linearly controlled from the Contrast parameter.

Mathematically, the relationship is:

To achieve a required given gain, the contrast control should be set to:

If the required gain is expressed in decibels (dB):
