Conventional displays use at least three primaries for full colour image reproduction. In this contribution, we discuss the reproduction of colour images using an LC-display system with two local dynamic primaries, based on a segmented backlight. The two primaries are chosen to minimise colour error by means of total least squares. By considering video statistics, it is shown that full colour repreoduction with an accuracy of Δu′v′ < 0:02 for more than 99.9% of the pixels in a segment can be achieved 84% of the time with 2,304 semgments. Simulation results show that two-primary systems can closely resemble colour reproduction of a conventional three-primary system.
