You'd use gamma to convert it to the limited rgba8888 scheme. Or maybe with hdr monitors some sort of 10 or 12 bit scheme. Either way you'll need to cut out information, because a light with value 1029 and a shade with value 3 in the same picture won't bode well without some gamma correction and cutoff.
- auggierose 5y agoWhy would you not just let the output hardware handle that sort of stuff? It really depends on the hardware what it can output and what not.
- bruce343434 5y agoHow does the hardware know what I want to adjust my range for?
- auggierose 5y agoWell you don't want to adjust your range, you give it the actual values. The hardware then does its best to show them. Anything else would be image processing, which is fine, but I don't see why you would need "Gamma" for that.
- kaetemi 5y agoBack and forth sRGB conversion is builtin to the texture sampling and frame buffer output pipelines.
