Standard-dynamic-range video

Standard-dynamic-range video (SDR video) is a video technology which represents light intensity based on the brightness, contrast and color characteristics and limitations of a cathode ray tube (CRT) display.[1] SDR video is able to represent a video or picture's colors with a maximum luminance around 100 cd/m2, a black level around 0.1 cd/m2 and Rec.709 / sRGB color gamut.[1][2] It uses the gamma curve as its electro-optical transfer function.[1][3]

The first CRT television sets were manufactured in 1934 and the first color CRT television sets were manufactured in 1954.[4][5] The term "standard-dynamic-range video" was adopted to distinguish SDR video from high-dynamic-range video (HDR video), a new technology that was developed in the 2010s to overcome SDR's limits.[1][6]
