On the use of the sRGB colour space
IEC/TC 100/PT61966 prepared a draft standard describing a default RGB colour spacesRGB. The use of this colour space is intended if no information on the colorimetric properties of the display is available. In this paper we investigate what the general user of computer monitors can expect if no specific information on the display characteristics are available and the IEC sRGB colour space is used. Our investigations have shown that the most important item was the difference in the white point of the single monitors, the chromaticity difference of the phosphors was of minor importance.
