sRGB (Standard RGB)

“International Standard for Red, Green, and Blue color space”

A color space was defined with the aim of the color matching between applications and hardware devices, such as monitors, scanners, printers and digital cameras. As a standard default space, sRGB allows Internet users to closely match colors.

Resolution

Resolution is expressed as the number of dots (pixels) displayed on the screen. A larger number of dots produces a more sharply defined (a higher-resolution) image. Note that for a given screen size the dot size decreases as the number of dots increases: a 640 x 480 (dot x line) resolution uses larger pixels than a 1024 x 768 resolution. The display size of a given font therefore varies according to the resolution. Higher resolutions allow you to display more information on the screen.

Uniformity

The uniformity is the purity of the color when a white screen is displayed on screen. Some monitors have blue or pink tinted areas that exhibit poor white uniformity. Some monitors have some brighter and darker areas, then this is an indication of bright uniformity error.

VESA DPMS

The acronym VESA stands for “Video Electronics Standards Association,” and DPMS stands for “Display Power Management Signaling.” DPMS is a communication standard that PCs and graphics boards use to implement power savings on the monitor side.
