that produces twice the color volume of standard SDR panel and a protocol requiring the Sink Device to report the
panel’s true color chromaticities, min/max luminance, peak luminance, and supported transfer function.
Common HDR10 displays requires an application to map into generic luminance range and use industry standard
color space that can be signaled through AVI and HDR Info Frame. This in turn requires Sink to perform tone
mapping to map GPU output to actual luminance range and color gamut of the physical panel. Tone mapping by the
monitor may increases post processing latency .
The FreeSync2 can allow content to be mapped directly to the display’s native color gamut and luminance range to
preserve HDR image quality while avoiding multiple inefficient tone mapping and preserving low latencies image
update.
