Hardware Calibration

Hardware calibration is the method of adjusting color directly by adjusting the settings inside the monitor. With hardware calibration, the target color is not reproduced through the graphic card output where all or a certain combination of white point, gamma, and brightness are reduced. EIZO's ColorNavigator software, which is included with ColorEdge monitors, employs hardware calibration, making it possible to maximize the monitor's capabilities to achieve very precise calibration. A monitor that is equipped with a look-up table (LUT) of 10- bits or larger for each color is required for hardware calibration.
