8、 Technical Standards Program was created to serve the PLASA membership and the entertainment industry in technical standards related matters. The goal of the Program is to take a leading role regarding technology within the entertainment industry by creating recommended practices and standards, moni

9、toring standards issues around the world on behalf of our members, and improving communications and safety within the industry. PLASA works closely with the technical standards efforts of other organizations within our industry, as well as representing the interests of PLASA members to ANSI, UL, and

10、 the NFPA. The Technical Standards Program is accredited by the American National Standards Institute. The Technical Standards Council (TSC) was established to oversee and to coordinate the Technical Standards Program. Made up of individuals experienced in standards-making work from throughout our i

11、ndustry, the Council approves all projects undertaken and assigns them to the appropriate working group. The Technical Standards Council employs a Technical Standards Manager to coordinate the work of the Council and its working groups as well as maintain a “Standards Watch” on behalf of members. Wo

12、rking groups include: Control Protocols, Electrical Power, Floors, Fog and Smoke, Followspot Position, Photometrics, Rigging, and Stage Lifts. PLASA encourages active participation in the Technical Standards Program. There are several ways to become involved. If you would like to become a member of

13、an existing working group, as have over four hundred people, you must complete an application which is available from the PLASA office. Your application is subject to approval by the working group and you will be required to actively participate in the work of the group if you join as a voting membe

14、r. This includes responding to letter ballots and attending meetings. Membership in PLASA is not a requirement. You can also become involved by requesting that the TSC develop a standard or a recommended practice in an area of concern to you. The Photometrics Working Group, which authored this stand

15、ard, consists of a cross section of entertainment industry professionals representing a diversity of interests. PLASA is committed to developing consensus-based standards and recommended practices in an open setting. The Technical Standard Program (TSP) is financially supported by PLASA and by compa

27、e, and defines the locations of the RGB primaries and the White Point for the purpose of facilitating the communications between lighting controllers and color-changing luminaires. It offers a standardized way of specifying color. The method is generic and is neither manufacturer-specific nor color

28、technology-specific. 2 Requirements (normative) 2.1 PLASA Standard Color Space, RGB Primaries and White Point 2.1.1 Color Space The Color Space shall be CIE 1931 x,y 2.1.2 RGB Primaries The RGB Primaries shall be defined in the CIE 1931 Color Space by the following coordinates: Red: x=0.7347, y=0.26

29、53 Green: x=0.1596, y=0.8404 Blue: x=0.0366, y=0.0001 2.1.3 White point The White Point shall be defined in the CIE 1931 Color Space by the following coordinates: x=0.4254, y=0.4044 2.2 HSI (Hue, Saturation, Intensity) Control Definitions Hue is an angular measurement that varies for 0 to 360. For t

30、he purposes of this PLASA Standard, reference hue angles are defined as follows: Hue of 0 = Full Red (RGB = 100,0,0) Hue of 120 = Full Green (RGB = 0,100,0) Hue of 240 = Full Blue (RGB = 0,0,100) 2.3 Communication of Color 2.3.1 Communication of RGB Values The preferred method of communicating color

31、 in this standard is by sending RGB (red, blue, green) values. 2.3.2 Communication of x,y Coordinates Using CIE 1931 x,y color coordinates for communicating color is permissible in this standard, but is not the preferred method. If CIE 1931 x,y color coordinates are used for communication, then they

32、 shall be sent as scaled values where 100% in the communication system shall be interpreted as 0.7347 for x, and 0.8341 for y. For example, if 16 bit values are used for communication, then the command mapping is as follows: x = 0: command value = 0 x = 0.7347: transmitted value for x = FFFFh y = 0:

33、 command value = 0 y = 0.8341: transmitted value for y = FFFFh ANSI E1.54, PLASA Standard for Color Communication in Entertainment Lighting 2 Photo/2014-5006r2 2.4 Handling of Commands to Produce Colors Outside of a Luminaires Gamut It is recommended, but not required, that when a luminaire receives

34、 a control command to create a color outside its gamut, that it produce a color that is as close to that hue as possible for the luminaire, but at lower saturation. 3 The Need for Standardization in Color Communication (informative) There is no standardization of entertainment luminaire color gamut.

35、 That gamut is usually defined, in the case of RGB LED based fixtures, by the wavelengths of the specific red, green, and blue emitters used. With different wavelength emitters being used, there is no commonality of RGB control settings between luminaires. A single set of RGB or HSI values sent to 2

36、0 different luminaires will render 20 different colors. Figure 1 shows the different RGB gamuts from three luminaires. Figure 1 Arbitrary RGB color gamuts defined by Specific LED emitters. As luminaire and LED technologies have advanced, many manufacturers are now calibrating their luminaires to an

37、absolute reference and would be capable of referring the mixed colors produced by their luminaires back to a standardized color definition. There is no particular commercial benefit to a single manufacturer in using one color definition over another, however there is considerable benefit to the enti

38、re industry if all manufacturers were to use the same one. Control desks would be able to send the same information to all lights and get the same color from each one. 4 Color Space Choice Explanation (informative) There are a number of ways to communicate color information in an unambiguous manner

39、from a control console to a luminaire. The simplest thing to standardize would be to agree a color space such as the familiar CIE 1931 x,y space used as the background plot in Figure 1. Although the CIE 1931 space has been superseded by newer spaces such as L*u*v* or L*a*b* which have better uniform

40、ity, it is still the most familiar space to most people. Any of these color spaces would work for us as a standard, they all cover the same underlying range of colors and they are all linear transformations of each other. Within that defined color space, we now need to define RGB primaries such that

41、 the familiar RGB system of color definition can be used. We dont want to reinvent the wheel. Kodak has already been through this ANSI E1.54, PLASA Standard for Color Communication in Entertainment Lighting 3 Photo/2014-5006r2 exercise and developed the ProPhoto color space as a suggested color spac

42、e for imaging and photographic use. Figure 2 Kodak ProPhoto Color Space ROMM RGB It has the following attributes: It is a larger space than any imaging device can achieve There is very little dead or unused space, so it offers the best use of available resolution No negative values of x or y It enco

43、mpasses 90% of all possible colors and 100% of all real world colors The ProPhoto space has been adopted as part of both ANSI/I3A IT10.7666:2003 and ISO 22028-2:2013 and is now commonly referred to as ROMM RGB (Reference Output Medium Metric RGB). We are adopting this same RGB color gamut for the PL

44、ASA standard. Most ANSI and ISO standards use the D50 white point, which has a CCT of 5003 K, roughly equivalent to daylight in some parts of the sky. It is therefore not an appropriate white point for our use. Instead, we adopt as the standard white point for entertainment luminaires the white ligh

45、t of a 3200 K black body emitter. 3200 K is commonly used as a standard white point for theatrical luminaires, gel swatch books, and lighting control consoles, and is a well-understood reference. 5 Color Math Examples (informative) 5.1 RGB Control The input is 3 values of 0 to 100% each for R (red),

46、 G (green) and B (blue). The output is a pair of CIE 1931 x,y Coordinates. ANSI E1.54, PLASA Standard for Color Communication in Entertainment Lighting 4 Photo/2014-5006r2 5.2 Convert PLASA RGB to CIE 1931 (x, y): The basic conversion uses a 3x3 transformation matrix derived from the PLASA RGB trian

47、gle and white point. = x Where, in this case, using our defined PLASA RGB color space and white point: = Thus: = x Worked example: Red Input = 79% Green Input = 58% Blue Input = 91% Convert to (X, Y, Z) = = Convert to CIE 1931 (x, y) x = x = = 0.438591 y = y = = 0.353038 Thus PLASA RGB values of (79

48、%, 58%, 91%) result unambiguously in a CIE 1931 x,y color coordinate of (0.438591, 0.353038) 5.2 HSI Control HSI (Hue, Saturation, Intensity) is directly related to RGB and white point so, once an RGB space is defined, so too is the corresponding HSI space. However, we need to add a few subsidiary d

49、efinitions to complete the picture. ANSI E1.54, PLASA Standard for Color Communication in Entertainment Lighting 5 Photo/2014-5006r2 Hue is an angular measurement that varies for 0 to 360. Clause 1.2 of this Standard defines the reference hue angles as: Hue of 0 = Full Red (RGB = 100,0,0) Hue of 120 = Full Green (RGB = 0,100,0) Hue of 240 = Full Blue (RGB = 0,0,100) To convert from H=Hue, S=Saturation to RGB we can use the following equations: If Hue is between 0 and 120 Degrees: R = (1 + S (cos(H)/(cos(60-H)/3 G = 1 R B B = (1 S)/3 If Hue
