QuickMonitorProfile is a tool to create ICC / ICM monitor profiles to be used for color management.
The number of imaging programs which can make use of color management is increasing. A general advice is to buy the still quite expensive light measuring tools along with the required software to create a profile for a particular monitor. For professional imaging this is definitely the right advice, but for people who do imaging for a hobby, a less expensive solution is more suitable.
This is exactly the reason why you need QuickMonitorProfile.
Since a few years by now, the monitor manufacturers store information inside the monitors which is being used by the graphics card drivers. The information can be read over the "Display Data Channel" (DDC) interface. From this information normally only the monitor resolution and timing information is being used.
The monitor manufacturers also store the chromaticity values of the red, green and blue phosphors of the monitor in this information. QuickMonitorProfile can make use of the stored phosphor chromaticity data and create a monitor profile perfectly suited for the connected monitor without the need for expensive equipment.
Furthermore, QuickMonitorProfile allows to create the most commonly used working space profiles. It is also possible to create a monitor profile for monitors that do not have a "Display Data Channel" interface provided the chromaticity data for the monitor is available.
