Colorimetry

Beschreibung

Colorimetry, the science of quantitvely describing color, isessential for color reproduction technology. This is because itcreates standards by which to measure color, using mathematicaltechniques and software to ensure fidelity across media, allowaccurate color mixing, and to develop color optimization. This book is a comprehensive and thorough introduction tocolorimetry, taking the reader from basic concepts through to avariety of industrial applications. Set out in clear,easy-to-follow terminology, Ohta and Robertson explain fundamentalprinciples such as color specification, the CIE (InternationalCommission on Illumination) system, and color vision and appearancemodels. They also cover the following topics: * the optimization of color reproduction; * uniform color spaces and color difference formulae, includingthe CIEDE 2000 formula; * applications of metamerism, chromatic adaptation, colorappearance and color rendering; * mathematical formulae for calculating color mixing, maximisingluminous efficacy, and designing illuminants with specificproperties. Colorimetry: Fundamentals and Applications is an idealreference for practising color engineers, color scientists andimaging professionals working on color systems. It is also apractical guide for senior undergraduate and graduate students whowant to acquire knowledge in the field.

"This volume will be a useful addition to academic libraries andwill be indispensible for basic and clinical researchers in thisgrowing field." (E-Streams, June 2008) "...a systematic and unambiguous exposition of how color isdefined, measured, and seen by humans under different viewingconditions...highly recommended." (CHOICE, June2006)
