To generate some gamma curves for a ws2812b led panel I thought I could
use dispcal to get the corresponding values.
So I have placed my Spyder 3 on top of the LED Panel (in an almost dark room)
and ran:
./dispcal -v 9 -q l -y l -C ./transmit.sh ws2812b
White = XYZ 7151.499 16807.628 0.000
^^^^^ This is bad.
Looks like my Spyder driver hasn't recognized that it's too bright for
the instrument. I'd guess that all the other errors flow from that.
I can't actually find anything from DataColor that specifies what
maximum brightness it is rated for, but the sensor frequency
is well over its rated range for 1% accuracy (700Khz vs 10Khz).
Above some frequency I'd guess that the hardware stops counting
it properly, hence the whacky -ve Z value that gets clipped to 0.0.
I think I'll add a check to return an error if excessive brightness is
detected in any of the sensors.
So you either need a different instrument that can go as high
as 20000 cd/m^2, or you would need to interpose something like
a good (i.e. spectrally flat) neutral filter to reduce the light level.
