High definition screens are getting better and better, but even a tiny blemish in the manufacturing process can become glaringly obvious to viewers over time. Software that includes tools built by NASA to help robots better discern contrast helps manufacturers consistently and accurately identify spots in their screens that aren't lighting up the right amount or aren't hitting the color marks accurately to ensure high definition displays deliver high quality in every pixel.
An important part of designing successful missions includes understanding how people process information and interact with mechanical and electronic systems. NASA has put a fair amount of work into optimizing vision technology, including the design of robotic vision systems. To that end, the agency created a software tool that focuses on how contrast is perceived by the human eye, to help engineered systems do the same.
