The method that gamma corrects RGB separately by using GPU of i.MX6Solo

[yuuki]

Dear all,

We understand that IPU of i.MX6Solo supports gamma correction.
However, that can't process R, G and B separately.

I think it's possible to process R and G separately by using GPU with Software.

Can 2D graphic engine correct gamma value of the R, G and B separately?

Best Regards,
Yuuki

Hi yuuki

I think one can use GPU blending for modification of one color

component (not changing other components), this is described in

IMX6DQRM  sect.31.4.1.16 Alpha Blending

The GPU supports alpha blending together with ROP. The alpha blending function is

performed on ROP function result source.

The general alpha blending equations are:

Cd = Fs * Cs' + Fd * Cd'

Ad = Fs * As'' + Fd * Ad''

Where

• Cs' is the source color component (adjusted for NPM if necessary)

• Cd' is the destination color component (adjusted for NPM if necessary)

• As'' is the modified source alpha component

• Ad'' is the modified destination alpha component

• Fs is fraction of the source that contributes to the final value

• Fd is fraction of the destination that contributes to the final value

Examples can be found in IMX6_GPU_SDK : i.MX6 Graphics SDK – Includes sample

Dear Igor-san,

Thank you for your support.

I will refer to alpha blending function

By the way, a R2D GPU supports Color Index Input Conversion.
I think that this function can be used.

Does this function support it about RGB separately?

Hi yuuki

in any way gpu processes data pixel by pixel.

V2D GPU supports OpenVG 1.1 graphics APIs.

Also when you are saying "RGB separately" - what do you mean exactly:

is this is standard OpenVG 1.1 API ?

Best regards
