is 50% ± 20%.
The dark illuminance of the test environment is not more than 1 lx.
The power supply voltage’s stability of the control light source shall be
controlled within ±2%.
The light source shall be fully preheated and stable.
A.2.2 Test procedure
A.2.2.1 White balance
For the video endoscope which has the white balance function, use the test
target of A.1.1 to carry out white balance under the test conditions.
A.2.2.2 Viewing of video endoscope
Adjust the camera distance to the desired position. Record it as the measuring
working distance d0.
A.2.2.3 Focusing
If the video endoscope has an autofocus function, when shooting the tested
target, it may slightly blur the focusing, to reduce the noise as generated by the
texture of the block itself. The emphasis here is “slightly”. The boundaries
between blocks must be kept distinct.
A.2.2.4 Setting the brightness of background B on the test target
Adjust the brightness of the background B on the test target, to achieve the
brightness value L0 as specified by the manufacturer. During the whole course
of brightness change of the small gray-scale block A, the brightness of the
background B shall keep the overall gain of the tested video endoscope
unchanged.
A.2.2.5 Changing the brightness of the small gray-scale block A on the
test target and collecting the analysis image
Gradually change the brightness of the small gray-scale block A on the test
target. Within the tolerance range, select not less than 10 different brightness
levels which are basic in uniform distribution. Corresponding to each brightness
level, measure the brightness value and record it as Li. Use the video
endoscope to photograph the test target. Use the image collector to collect n
images and store it, wherein n is not less than 8.
For the collected image, select (M × N) pixels in the small gray-scale block-A
area (recommended 32 × 32). Respectively read the output signals of the output
signal matrix (M x N x 3) corresponding to each channel of red, green, blue of
each image.
For a certain brightness level Li, the average values , , of the signal
of each channel of red, green, blue are calculated from the arithmetic mean of
the R, G, B values of (M × N × n) pixels, respectively.
A.2.2.6 Calculating the display brightness value and fitness
For the obtained Li, corresponding to the , , data sets, use the elec-
opto conversion function (reverse function of OECF) of the output brightness
as given by the manufacturer to calculate the displayed brightness Lyi (yi
represents , , , respectively). If the manufacturer gives a data list, the
elec-opto conversion function of the output brightness may be obtained by the
use of piecewise linear fitting. The result of Lyi corresponding to the brightness
Li of each gray-scale of the actually measured target shall be represented in
the form of Table and/or graph.
Calculate the linear fit R2 of L - Ly (effective digits to 2 digits after the decimal
point). The calculation formula is as shown in formula (A.1):
Where:
m - The number of gray-scales;
- The average value of Li;
- The average value of Lyi.
The red, green, blue channels shall be calculated respectively.

Gradually change the brightness of the small gray-scale block A on the test
target. Within the tolerance range, select not less than 10 different brightness
levels which are basic in uniform distribution. Corresponding to each brightness
level, use the video endoscope to photograph the test target. Use the image
collector to collect n images and store it, wherein n is not less than 8.
For the collected image, select (M × N) pixels in the small gray-scale block-A
area (recommended 32 × 32). Respectively read the output signals of the output
signal matrix (M x N x 3) corresponding to each channel of red, green, blue of
each image.
B.2.2.6 Calculating the brightness signal component based on the output
signal of each channel of red, green, blue
For a certain brightness level, the average brightness signal component is
calculated from the arithmetic mean of the Y values of (M × N × n) pixels, where
Y is obtained by weighting the output signals of each channel of red, green,
blue. The weight of each channel is valued according to the coding method as
given by the manufacturer.
Note: The general standard code may be found in ISO 22028-1:2004.
Example: If the coding method uses the method as specified in ITU-R BT.709,
the calculation of Y value may be weighted as follows:
Where:
R, G, B - The output signal values of each channel of red, green, blue.
